GLP-1 cost worksheet
Enter the quote you got from your pharmacy and what you know about your coverage. The worksheet does the arithmetic — per fill, per 28 and 30 days, and per year in whole fills — and keeps anything you don't know marked as unknown. It runs entirely in your browser: nothing you type is saved or sent anywhere, and there is no account.
It doesn't look up prices, check stock or verify coverage, and it never suggests changing how you take a medication to save money. For reported Canadian figures, see the Canada guide.
The details you enter stay in this browser.
1 · The quote
As on the quote, e.g. a generic semaglutide pen.
What one fill is: one pen, a box of tablets…
The ongoing price, before any separate fee.
From your prescription or label (e.g. 28). The worksheet never estimates this for you.
2 · Fees and introductory pricing
Leave blank if you don't know — it stays unknown.
Delivery, membership, visit fees. Blank = unknown.
Only if the quote has a different first-fill price.
3 · Your coverage assumption
Your own assumption — the worksheet can't verify coverage.
4 · Where the numbers came from
Which pharmacy or page, who you spoke to.
Only if you want a converted figure. Use a dated rate, e.g. the Bank of Canada daily rate.

Assumptions and evidence
- Product: not entered · package: not entered
- Source: pharmacy quote · region not entered · checked date not entered
- Currency: CAD. Years are 365 days; fills are bought whole, starting on day one.
- Per-28 and per-30-day costs are prorated from the per-day cost; a month's actual spend depends on when fills fall.
- Deductibles are applied to the first fills of the year. Other monthly costs are not treated as covered.
Still unknown
- Price per fill
- How many days one fill lasts
- Dispensing fee per fill
- Other monthly costs (delivery, membership, visits)
- Insurance or drug-plan coverage
A worksheet of your own numbers, not a price quote, coverage decision or medical advice. Coverage is decided by your plan; how you take your medication is decided with your prescriber. Exchange rates: Bank of Canada daily rates.
