As of August 2026, this free calculator estimates what a GLP-1 medicine could cost you in India each month and each year, based on published MRPs. Pick a medicine, strength and pack - it is a price estimate, not medical advice. Your doctor decides your dose.

Prescription required. This calculator estimates cost from Maximum Retail Prices. It does not sell medicines, recommend a dose, or say whether any medicine is right for you - your doctor decides that.

How we calculate

The maths follows how these medicines are actually taken. Once-weekly injections (Mounjaro, Wegovy, Ozempic, Yurpeak) are four doses a month; a four-dose pen is roughly one month's supply, so its MRP is the monthly cost; single-dose vials need four a month. Rybelsus is a daily tablet, so a month is about 30 tablets - three strips of 10.

₹/month = pack MRP × packs needed per month.
₹/year = ₹/month × 12.
₹/dose = ₹/month ÷ 4 for weekly injections (÷ 30 for daily tablets).
First-year (titration) estimate allows for the dose starting low and stepping up over the first weeks - illustrative only.

Every figure is built from MRP (Maximum Retail Price), a ceiling - the price you actually pay at a licensed pharmacy can be at or below it. Confirm the live price on the product page.

Frequently asked questions

Is the GLP-1 cost calculator free?

Yes. It is completely free and runs entirely in your browser. Nothing you enter is saved, sent or shared - the calculation happens on your own device.

Are the prices accurate and up to date?

The calculator uses published MRPs for August 2026, refreshed monthly. MRPs can change, and the selling price at a pharmacy can be lower. Always confirm the current price on the product page before buying.

Does the calculator tell me which dose I need?

No. It only estimates the cost of a medicine, strength and pack you choose. Your doctor decides your dose and how it is stepped up - the calculator never recommends a dose or a medicine.

Why is the first-year estimate not just 12× the monthly cost?

Because these medicines are usually started at a low dose and stepped up over the first weeks. The titration estimate adds up each month at its illustrative strength, so early months can cost less than a full maintenance month.

Does insurance cover these costs in India?

As of August 2026, health insurance generally does not cover GLP-1 medicines used for weight loss; diabetes-related coverage may differ by policy but is not guaranteed. Check your own policy wording with your insurer.
