Ozempic is a brand name for semaglutide, a GLP-1 receptor agonist that helps regulate blood sugar levels by mimicking a hormone called incretin. Manufactured by Novo Nordisk, it comes in injectable form and is administered once a week in different doses: 0.25mg, 0.5mg and 1mg. Each pen contains 4 doses and will last one month (1 injection per week).
It’s an effective treatment for adults with Type 2 diabetes and can help reduce the risk of cardiovascular complications but is also often used for supporting weight loss.
Ozempic is available at most major hospitals, clinics, and pharmacies in Thailand. You’ll typically find it in urban centers like Bangkok, Chiang Mai, and Phuket. Although you do not need a prescription for Ozempic and many pharmacies sell it over-the-counter, it is still recommended to consult with a doctor first and do regular bloodwork.
Ozempic is also available through online platforms in Thailand, but buyers should exercise caution when buying online. Verify the pharmacy’s credentials to avoid counterfeit medications and verify if they store and ship Ozempic correctly as it needs to be stored cool.
Available alternatives
Given that Ozempic is administered once a week and weight loss is more gradual it is best for those staying in Thailand for a longer period. For those who want to achieve significant weight loss in a shorter period of time, there are surgeries such as gastric sleeve or liposuction available.
The cost of Ozempic in Thailand typically ranges from ฿8,000 to ฿12,000 ($250–$350 USD) for a month’s supply (one pen).
Ozempic in Thailand is often more affordable than in Western countries, especially USA where a monthly dose can cost around $800 - $1,000. The exact price you pay will depend on whether you buy it at a hospital or pharmacy and the dosage strength (0.5mg, 1 mg, etc.)
Although usually more expensive at hospitals, the extra costs are often worth it for the added security of having doctor supervision and avoiding the risk of using counterfeit or incorrectly stored Ozempic.
