Amazon Pharmacy has added Eli Lilly’s Zepbound KwikPen in the 2.5-mg starter dose for $299 per month through its cash-pay model.
Zepbound is a multidose injectable medication approved for chronic weight management and, more recently, moderate-to-severe obstructive sleep apnea. With a valid prescription, Amazon customers can order the KwikPen online for home delivery, including same-day delivery in nearly 3,000 cities and towns, according to a March 9 news release. That reach is expected to grow to 4,500 locations by the end of 2026.
Amazon Pharmacy has supplied GLP-1 medications since 2021 and works with partners including LillyDirect, WeightWatchers, UpScriptHealth and Noom. To date, the company said, its platform has saved customers “more than $200 million,” with GLP-1s representing the largest share of savings, according to the release.
