What was Ozempic’s U.S. list price for a 1 mg monthly supply in 2023?
Ozempic (semaglutide) pricing is reported as a “list price” in public drug pricing datasets, but the exact figure can vary by the specific package strength and size used to define “monthly supply.” The most search-relevant next step is to check the current or historical list-price record for the exact 1 mg dose package and month (2023) you mean.

Which Ozempic package corresponds to a “1 mg monthly supply”?
Ozempic is sold in specific pen strengths and pack sizes. When people say “1 mg monthly supply,” they usually mean one pen (or number of pens) sufficient to take 1 mg per week over a month or a standardized 28-day period. That definition may not match every dataset’s “monthly supply” calculation, so the list price can differ depending on whether the source calculates per pen, per dose, or per 28-day supply.
To get an accurate 2023 1 mg monthly-supply number, you need:
the 1 mg pen strength and the pack count the dataset uses, and
whether “monthly supply” is standardized as 28 days or another convention. [1]
What can make the 2023 list price you see differ from other numbers?
Common reasons include:
the dataset using a different definition of “monthly supply” (28-day vs. 30-day),
the price being for “list” price vs. another benchmark (e.g., net price after rebates),
time variation within 2023 (some datasets update at different dates),
and which exact product/strength identifier the page is using. [1]
If you tell me the exact source you’re using, I can match the number
If you share either:
the link/screenshot of where you saw the question (or the dataset name), or
the exact Ozempic product/pen description shown (e.g., “1 mg pens, 1 pen/box”),
I can help interpret what “monthly supply” means there and point you to the matching 2023 list-price entry.
