Ontario
The expected cost for Ozempic in Ontario is between $200-$300 per month, with some providers at slightly higher numbers than that when factoring in the cost of services, in addition to the Ozempic injections themselves.
Ontario has one of the highest rates of Ozempic usage among all the provinces across Canada. This number was around 14.9% in 2021, with this figure expected to have likely risen slightly since then.

British Columbia
The price of Ozempic injections in British Columbia tends to range between $300-$400 per month, depending on your prescribed dosage and the pharmacy you’re using.
Originally, doctors in B.C. were actually prescribing Ozempic not just to Canadian citizens, but to Americans as well, which some people believe contributed to some of the shortages in the region at the time. Thankfully, British Columbia has now changed the regulations, both to ensure supply and to reduce off-label usage of the treatments.

Alberta
The average cost of Ozempic injections in Alberta only falls between $200-$400 per month, similar to the rest of the country, if not near the higher end of the median.
Still, Alberta actually has one of the lowest usage rates in Canada (0-8% compared to the rest of Canada), and during the Ozempic shortage, Alberta was one of the provinces hit the hardest.

Saskatchewan
The average price of Ozempic in Saskatchewan ranges between $250-$450 per month, depending on which pharmacy you’re getting your treatments through.
Saskatchewan has one of the highest growth rates of Ozempic usage across the country, with it having gone up 3,300% between 2019 and 2023. With the arrival of generics later this year, many people expect this trend of popularity to continue through 2026.

Provinces in Canada that Felix doesn’t serve:
Nova Scotia
The average price for Ozempic injections in Nova Scotia ranges from $200-$400, with the average sitting around $310 per month.
Ozempic use in Nova Scotia is growing in popularity, alongside the rest of Canada, but this province was a little slower to gain speed than others. Luckily for them, this meant many Nova Scotia patients weren’t subjected to the same shortages the rest of Canada saw in 2024.
Newfoundland & Labrador
The average price of Ozempic injections in Newfoundland and Labrador is $200-$300 per month, and it’s important to mention that Newfoundland requires special authorization in order to access any type of public coverage for Ozempic.
Later in 2026, the generic version of Ozempic is expected to be extremely popular in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Prince Edward Island
The cost of Ozempic in PEI ranges between $250-$450 per month, which makes it one of the most expensive provinces on average to seek these treatments. Of course, these stats vary by pharmacy, as well as your individually prescribed dosage.
It’s unclear whether this is because Prince Edward Island has one of the lowest rates of usage in Canada, or because of factors like shipping and regional availability.
New Brunswick
In New Brunswick, the price of Ozempic ranges between $200-$400 per month, with it averaging around $300 for most patients, and of course, the usual variances.
New Brunswick actually ranks among the highest percentages per capita usage of Ozempic in Canada, with monotherapy claimants making up 16.3% of the population in 2021.
Quebec
With one of the highest cost ranges in Canada, the cost of Ozempic in Quebec can vary from $200-$500, depending on the pharmacy being used, as well as access to any potential insurance coverage.
Although due to high demand, there were some shortages in Quebec in 2023 and 2024, but over the last year or so, stock supplies of the medication appear to have restabilized.
Why does the cost for Ozempic vary by province?
Several factors can play a role in what the cost of your Ozempic treatment ends up being, some of which are impacted by the province you live in.
As you’ve probably noticed, though, there is a pretty stable range at which you can find Ozempic prices in Canada. However, without insurance support, patients should be prepared to pay closer to the top end of the cost scale, depending on where they live.
It’s good to note, however, that with the introduction of generic medications in Canada in 2026, there is hope for more affordable options in the near future.

The cost of Ozempic without insurance coverage in Canada
It’s important to remember that certain indications are currently not covered by private insurance benefits, so depending on the reasons that you’re looking to access Ozempic injections in Canada, finding insurance coverage may be challenging.
This means, in these scenarios, you should be prepared to pay the cost of Ozempic out-of-pocket in Canada. And when paying out of pocket, without insurance or discounting options, you can expect your Ozempic prescription in Canada to cost near the top-end for your province.
