Oct. 3, 2025, 1:42 PM EDTBy Kaan OzcanOzempic and Wegovy are coming to a Costco near you.Novo Nordisk, the company that makes Ozempic and Wegovy, announced Friday it will be selling the prescription injectable pens at the warehouse chain’s pharmacies. A four-week supply of the weight loss drug will cost $499 out of pocket. Novo Nordisk already sells the monthly supply for $499 at its direct-to-consumer website, and it offers the same discount through CVS and Walmart.Novo Nordisk and other manufacturers of the hugely popular weight loss drugs have been competing against compounding pharmacies, some clinics and medical spas who sell cheaper versions of the branded medications.“We want to make sure we offer the real, authentic Wegovy and Ozempic where patients seek care,” David Moore, president of Novo Nordisk U.S., told NBC News. “We know that Costco is a trusted brand.” Costco members with a prescription will pay $499 for a one-month supply. Executive members and those with Costco Citibank credit cards will receive an additional 2% discount. For members who have insurance, the price will depend on their plan.The discounted prescriptions will be available at over 600 Costco pharmacies nationwide starting Friday. Recent research on the drugs has shown their potential to reduce stroke risk, treat liver disease and protect heart health. Dr. Rekha Kumar, an endocrinologist at Weill Cornell Medicine and senior medical adviser at Found Health, said the drugs have been a big breakthrough in the treatment of diabetes, but they’re still out of reach for many people who are uninsured, or whose insurance won’t cover the prescriptions. “This will definitely improve one of the issues with access, meaning that there is another place that people can get the medicine that you know isn’t their retail pharmacy, isn’t an online telehealth pharmacy, but a large store that many people in the United States go to,” she said, even if it will not “solve the issues of insurance coverage and cost.”In 2024, 13 states cover GLP-1 drugs for obesity treatment, according to KFF, a nonpartisan health policy research group. Around 1 in 8 adults say they have used a GLP-1 agonist.“Those patients that have coverage will receive the medicine on average for $25 a month,” Novo Nordisk’s Moore said. “But that doesn’t cover everyone, so we wanted to make sure there’s a self-pay option available as well.”Around 1 in 5 people with private insurance don’t have coverage for at least one brand-name GLP-1 medication prescribed for weight loss, according to GoodRX.Dr. Harlan Krumholz, cardiologist and professor of medicine at Yale School of Medicine said that he’s happy to see greater accessibility for the medications, but they won’t reach the people that need them the most if they can’t pay $499 a month.“The people who have the greatest need for these medications are precisely the people who are in lower socioeconomic strata who have either poor insurance or no insurance, and don’t have the discretionary funds to be spending on medications,” he said.“If we really want to make the biggest difference on the health of the nation, we have to make sure that the people who would benefit the most have access to medications that are being shown to be beneficial.” Kaan OzcanKaan Ozcan is an intern with NBC News’ Health and Medical Unit.

The album’s immediate and staggering success could be a contributing factor. Swift wrapped up a massive media blitz for “Showgirl,” which was released on Oct. 3. Already, the album has racked up historic streaming numbers, and a huge amount of album variants have been sold.Here’s a look at how “Showgirl” has exploded in its first week. ‘TLOAS’ comes in second for first-week streams this yearSwift has claimed the second-best streaming week of the year, with more than 460 million on-demand official streams in the U.S., according to a Thursday report from Billboard, which tracks sales, streaming and airplay data for its charts. The outlet cited initial reports from data tracking firm Luminate in its report. The streaming data for “Showgirl” pulls together multiple versions of the album, including the standard edition, which features 12 songs, and two other track-by-track versions that include commentary from Swift and lyric videos for all of the tracks. Taylor Swift talks with host Seth Meyers on Oct. 8.Lloyd Bishop / NBCSwift’s’ numbers fell behind only Morgan Wallen, whose album “I’m the Problem” earned 462.63 million streams during its May release week, according to Billboard’s count. The music-tracking outlet noted Swift’s major release week easily falls among the top 10 all-time biggest streaming weeks for any album. Swift herself holds the record for largest streaming week ever with “Tortured Poets Department,” which saw 891.37 million streams in its opening week last year, Billboard reported. “TLOAS” also broke a single-day streaming record on Spotify, achieving the title in only 11 hours, according to the streaming platform. The album saw 6 million pre-saves — beating “TTPD,” which previously held the record. Swift expected to break longstanding sales recordSwift is poised to break the longstanding record for the largest sales week for an album in the modern era, which is currently held by Adele’s “25.” The British singer’s album sold 3.378 million copies during its release week in 2015, Billboard reported. “Showgirl” sales have likely been boosted by a host of exclusive editions of the album released on iTunes this week that were available for only 24 hours each. Swift also released a wide range of exclusive CDs and vinyls that contributed to its massive sales. According to Billboard’s count, she has put out a whopping 32 different versions of “Showgirl,” including 18 CDs, eight vinyls, one cassette and five downloadable variants. Swift’s exact sales numbers will be released on Sunday, Billboard said. “Showgirl” will also debut on the Billboard 200 chart the same day. ‘The Official Release Party of a Showgirl’In conjunction with the release of “The Life of a Showgirl,” Swift released an 89-minute behind-the-scenes look at the making of the album that only played in theaters from Oct. 3 to Oct. 5. The movie featured the premier of the music video for lead single “The Fate of Ophelia,” a look at the making of the video, Swift’s explanations of each song, and lyric videos that went track by track.

Swift’s “Showgirl” movie event achieved such success even when there was barely any promotion — there was no trailer, no Thursday preview showtimes, and that was after she announced its release only two weeks before it hit theaters. Late night around the globe Swift has spent the last week on what appears to be her most comprehensive media tour in years. In addition to a handful of appearances on radio shows in the U.K., Swift kicked off release week across the pond on “The Graham Norton Show.” She traveled back to the States in time to make it on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” on Monday and, followed that up with a second trip to 30 Rock and a feature on “Late Night” with Meyers on Wednesday. Swift and Fallon talked engagement rings, masters recordings and rumors that Swift turned down the Super Bowl Halftime Show because the NFL wouldn’t allow her to own the concert footage (not true, said Swift). She also explained the meaning behind most of the 12 tracks and praised her Eras Tour dancers for their work on the “Ophelia” music video. While joking with Meyers, Swift revealed her fiancé, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce, made a massive mix-up at one of her Eras Tour shows. The media tour appears to be over for now, but Swifties are hoping for a surprise appearance on “Saturday Night Live” when Sabrina Carpenter hosts on Oct. 18.
