Pricing Details

Monthly Price
$208/mo

Sesame has moved to a "Success by Sesame" subscription: $59/mo for care (priced on a 12-month commitment) plus medication billed separately — Wegovy from $149/mo brings the all-in to roughly $208/mo, and Zepbound from $299/mo to roughly $358/mo. Brand-name FDA-approved medication only; Sesame no longer offers a compounded option, so it does not appear in our compounded price ladders. Sesame notes medication pricing may vary by treatment, dose, pharmacy and provider, so these are floors rather than guarantees. Verified August 31, 2026. Compare all provider prices.

What Real Customers Say About Sesame Care

Across Reddit and third-party review sites, where Sesame Care has accumulated 4,366 independent reviews, customers consistently report: Praised for cheap cash-pay visits and quick access to a doctor, with some scheduling and follow-up complaints. Note: this reflects Sesame's full telehealth marketplace, not GLP-1 care alone.

We treat recurring complaints as the useful signal, not the average score — a pattern you can check before you pay is worth more than a star rating. Where the recurring theme is pricing, note that we re-verify Sesame Care's advertised price on its own site every week and publish the result in our GLP-1 Price Index, so the figures on this page reflect what the site actually advertises today rather than what it charged at launch.

How We Reviewed Sesame Care

We assess every GLP-1 provider on the same criteria: real month-to-month pricing (not intro teasers), medication sourcing and pharmacy licensing, clinician credentials, state availability, cancellation terms, and verified third-party ratings. We update this page when pricing or terms change.
