What to know about Wegovy
It depends. Medication costs vary from treatment to treatment but will be in line with what you would pay at a pharmacy in person. You will see the estimated cost of your medication before insurance, during the online consult but will only be charged once approved. Once approved, your prescription will be sent to the pharmacy and we will process the payment and fill the prescription within one to two days.
Keep in mind that you won’t necessarily need to pay the full price yourself. If you have insurance, Juniper’s partner pharmacies will bill your insurer directly. You may also be eligible for financial support in your province.
