Knownwell review
Graded on whether a price is published, checkable, and still true at month two — how we grade · how we verify prices
Knownwell publishes branded cash prices dose by dose — Wegovy at $349 a month, Zepbound at $299 — and dates the page. One price expired before we read it.
- Month-to-month price published
- States not published
- Prices read September 2026

The verdict
A clinic that prices brand-name GLP-1s in public and stamps the page with a last-updated date. The cheapest figure on it is captioned for a window that had already closed.

Pros and cons
What we like
- Cash prices are published dose by dose for both branded products, at $349, $149, $299 and $499.
- The page carries its own last-updated date, which makes every figure on it checkable against a moment in time.
- The clinic says plainly that visits go through insurance and that an advocacy team pursues medication coverage.
What could be better
- The $149 pill price is captioned as holding until the end of August 2026 and was still published in September.
- Patients on Medicare or other federal or state coverage are told to fill at specific pharmacies to get discounts, which narrows the offer.
- Only branded products are priced; there is no compounded option on this page.
What it is
An obesity and primary-care clinic rather than a compounding storefront: visits go through insurance, the medications are branded, and there is an insurance advocacy team whose job is coverage. That makes it the opposite bet from most of this roster, and worth reading against what a compounded vial is and is not.

What it actually costs
The out-of-pocket page prices the Wegovy pen at $349 a month and the Wegovy pill at $149. Zepbound is $299 a month as either the KwikPen or the vial, and $499 as the pen with a coupon. A new-patient offer runs $199 for two months on the pen.
The $149 pill price carries its own caption: until the end of August 2026. We read the page on 2026-09-03, so the cheapest number on it was already outside its stated window.
The page also carries a last-updated date, which is rarer than it should be and is exactly the thing that makes a published price checkable.
Who it's wrong for
- Skip it if you want a compounded vial. Everything priced here is a branded product.
- Skip it if you are on Medicare or another federal or state plan — the page says those patients must fill at specific pharmacies to get the discounts.
- Skip it if you need in-person primary care outside its one named location.
- For compounded pricing with a published monthly figure: Lumen Meds charges $114.99 a month.

Why we gave Knownwell a B
Read the full grading rationale
This is the rarest shape on the roster: a clinic that publishes branded-drug cash prices dose by dose on a dedicated pricing page, stamps that page with a last-updated date, and says plainly that the visits themselves go through insurance. Wegovy runs $349 a month as a pen and $149 as the pill; Zepbound is $299 for the KwikPen and vial and $499 for the pen with a coupon. The catch is a date: the $149 pill price is captioned as holding until the end of August 2026, and that window had closed before we read it, so the cheapest figure on the page is the one least likely to still be true. The terms name the operating company, its address and the medical groups it contracts with.
