I'm not sure I am allowed to ask this... I'm getting quotes of $1k+. Am I doing something wrong?

Zepbound is the same drug in the same strengths in the same device. That could be why Mounjaro is hard to get because Lilly was making Zepbound. Meanwhile, Mounjaro is being prescribed off label for weight loss.
If you do not have diabetes, insurance will not pay for it. It does cost 800-1000 without insurance. I have diabetes and this is the only medication that works for me. I have had to go without life saving medication due to people who want to lose weight. It’s hard to find the medication every month…
Google "Mounjaro saving program". That might help. I assume you do not have insurance.
There are ads on many media for appx 249-350$ w/o insurance but 75$ initial "cost/fee" with online Dr's nationwide. I personally would feel better dealing with a Dr in PERSON to discuss pros and cons, as there are cons. Tirzepatide comes under many names also like Zepbound, which claims to be a replica of Mounjaro. You can have reactions to any drug obviously, but out of so many women I know who are taking one of the handful of weight loss injections none have any issues, but I still would rather be under a Dr's care just in case. Good luck.
