You may see manufacturer-direct pharmacy mentioned as you choose how to fill your prescription — here’s what it means.
- LillyDirect and NovoCare Pharmacy are pharmacy programs run directly by the companies that make your medication (Eli Lilly and Novo Nordisk).
- They ship your medication straight to you, and typically offer the lowest cash price we have visibility into if you don’t have insurance coverage for the medication.
- Zepbound and Foundayo are both made by Eli Lilly, so they route to LillyDirect. Wegovy (pen and pill) is made by Novo Nordisk, so it routes to NovoCare Pharmacy.
- Choosing manufacturer-direct is entirely optional, you can pick any pharmacy you prefer instead.
- This choice only affects where your medication is filled and how you pay — your prescribing, dosing, and provider care stay exactly the same.
