    could be manufactured for 89 cents to $4.73 for a month’s supply

    That compares to the monthly US list price of $968.52 for Ozempic, a weekly injection.

    I got semaglutide (Rybelsus, the pill form) prescribed for type 2 diabetes. The list price in Spain for a 30 pill format (a month’s worth) is around 130€ ($140) without discounts. Thanks to the prescription, I get it for free ($0.00)… which turns out to be closer to its actual value. Interesting 🤔
