..... Amazon will offer same-day delivery of Eli Lilly's weight-loss pill foundayo and stock the medication at kiosks at some of the company's health clinics.
..... The Food and Drug administration approved the pill April 1, [2026] giving consumers another GLP-1 weight loss option without having to self-administer shots, USA Today previously reported.
..... Customers will need a prescription for Lilly's weight-loss pill to order it through Amazon Pharmacy.
..... About half of customers in the United States will have access to same-day delivery. Amazon officials said; all customers will receive their medication within four days.
..... Lilly previously said consumers whose insurance doesn't cover weight-loss mediations can buy Forndayo at $149 for a one-month supply of the lowest dose, paying up to $349 for additional monthly doses. Higher doses start at $299 to $349 for a one-month prescription under Foundayo's self-pay program.
..... People with insurance that covers GLP-1 weight-loss drugs might pay as little as $25 per month, Lilly and Amazon said.
..... Consumers will have several additional options to purchases Foundayo. The telehealth provider Ro and Weight Watchers also sell the medication, or consumers with a prescription can order from Lilly's direct-to-consumer pharmacy, LillyDirect.
..... Novo Nordisk's weight-loss wegovy pill, which launched in January, [2026] is also available via Amazon and telehealth platforms such as Ro, Weight Watchers and LifeMD.
..... Amazon in 2025 announced it was opening up kiosks to sell widely used medications such as antibiotics, blood pressure medication and asthma inhalers, saying the option would reduce barriers to access and limit shipping costs. Amazon has kiosks at five One Medical locations in Los Angeles, but the retailer plans to expand them nationwide.
..... Patients without a membership to One Medial, Amazon's primary and urgent care business, can still book an appointment and use the kiosks. A One Medical subscription is $199 per year.
