    One of the most common questions we get is about the cost of treatment. Here we explain how it works.

    Subsidy Status

    As of 2024, GLP-1 medications for obesity are not subsidized via TLV. This means you pay the entire cost yourself. For type 2 diabetes, the same substances may be included in high-cost protection.

    Price Examples

    Monthly cost varies depending on preparation and dose. Contact us for current prices, as they may change.
