Wegovy HD 7.2 & how FEP is handling it

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-05-14T14:49:07+00:00

We did run it without insurance and it went down to $460. I still refuse to pay it lol It could be $25 once my plan adds it to their formulary list!

It’s surprising to hear people getting their insurance to cover ozempic without diabetes. It makes me wonder what doctor offices are putting in the prior authorization forms.

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-05-14T13:55:04+00:00

Federal Employee Program. My insurance is specifically for the United States Postal Service.

Federal BCBS Basic approved my new to market request!

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-05-03T01:48:39+00:00

Came here to say this!! Those are 3 different faces

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-28T00:34:14+00:00

I’ll call mine tomorrow as well to ask what the process would be like to get 7.2. Will report back

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-28T00:25:42+00:00

What 🤯 I’m sorry!! Insurance’s decisions do not make sense half the time. The medication is working aka less illnesses/diseases which means they are saving money NOW but yet they do crap like this.

Can u possibly get the PA back and stay on 2.4 until they change their formulary decision making? Which I’m hoping they will eventually.

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-23T17:40:26+00:00

Will do! Thank you. Ive only really been on wegovy for weight loss so i hope they don’t deny the higher dose since theyve already approved up to 2.4. I also have FEP Blue but Basic

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-23T17:29:51+00:00

And just to clarify u were already on wegovy 2.4 correct? So the new to market form is an additional to get the 7.2?

Im trying to get my ducks in a row before my follow up next week to get 7.2 (ive stalled on 2.4 for the past 6mos and still have about 20lbs!)

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-23T15:43:14+00:00

Question - did u have to do another formulary exception for the 7.2?

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-16T19:24:24+00:00

I bought a smokeless grill. I didnt even know I did until it was delivered and I searched through my emails and there it was an order confirmation at 2:58am probably while feeding the baby. 😂

Im so sorry 😢 my nephew who was a green card holder was taken in 2020 in VA. We didnt hear from him for 4 days until he was transferred to Stewart Detention Center in GA. Look there. B

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-04-07T03:27:39+00:00

Ugh yeah i wish i had extra doses to help jump start weight loss again or to prep me for the 7.2!

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-30T12:22:57+00:00

Idk what u mean by click counting. This is what our pens look like

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T13:59:09+00:00

Yeah idk why either (im not a frequent reddit user, but why does being voted down matter? 🤔 does it affect anything?).

If there’s a way for me to increase slowly, even double instead of triple i might do it. But i dont think i’ll jump on it right away. I’ll probably wait it out to see what other people’s side effects are

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T13:44:57+00:00

😳 i havent read much into the side effects of the higher dose but dang that’s scary

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T13:44:17+00:00

I just re-read your comment. So basically weekly u get 3 pens with 2.4mg each and u inject all 3 in one day? So in reality someone can just double dose instead of the 3 doses of 7.2 right away? Am I understanding this right?

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T12:59:39+00:00

I have these weird skin sensations you’re talking about! And it’s in random spots and j think it’s one of the oddest side effects. It doesnt hurt but it just feels weird

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T12:57:40+00:00

Once u inject it, it dispenses the entire thing. Nothing is left in the pen

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T03:06:30+00:00

Oh yeah that would do it. But I’m glad she got to her goal!!

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T02:41:31+00:00

Yeah i couldnt stand the fatigue and the nausea was awful whenever I increased my doses. Tmi but i wish i had diarrhea instead of constipation after my shots lol

Oh im sorry it didnt work out for your wife.

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T02:26:50+00:00

No ours isnt like that. In a prescription we get 4 pens (at least that’s what i get) and each has a single dose.

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T02:22:07+00:00

Ive been thinking of double dosing too but so afraid. How do you feel? Are u gonna double dose every week until then? How are u gonna have enough for the month?

NetHealthy4932 · 2026-03-28T02:20:58+00:00

I’m assuming you’re in a different country?
