A peek under the hood
The math is refreshingly simple. Your monthly savings is just your current price minus the cheaper option's price. We multiply that by how long you plan to be on treatment to get the total, then divide by your current price to show the percentage off. As an example, the default — Ozempic at $998 versus Foundayo at $149 — comes to $849 a month, about $10,188 over a year, or roughly 85% off.
