These are prescription only medicines. A UK prescriber decides whether a treatment and a dose suit you. Confirm the total at checkout before you pay. ## Questions Why is the first order cheaper? Pharmacies discount month one to win new customers. The discount usually ends after the first order. Which price should I budget with? The ongoing price. You pay the first order price once and the ongoing price every month after. Do all pharmacies charge more from month two? No. On 12 October 2026, 62 per cent of the prices with both figures cost more on an ongoing order. The rest cost the same or less. Where do I see ongoing prices? Every dose page has an ongoing column and a table of the ten cheapest ongoing prices. ## More guides * [How to check a UK online pharmacy is registered]() * [How to compare weight loss treatment prices]() * [How price rises with each dose step]() * [All guides]() ## Cite this page GLP Index.
