Coverage through the Ontario Drug Benefit (ODB) program is evolving as the generic rolls out. Apo-Semaglutide is a recently launched generic; check the <a href="https://www.ontario.ca/page/check-medication-coverage" rel="noopener noreferrer">Ontario Ministry of Health drug coverage tool</a> for current formulary status rather than relying on word of mouth. Private employer and group plans vary by plan administrator — confirm directly with your insurer. Where Apo-Semaglutide is listed as interchangeable on the Ontario Formulary, a pharmacist may substitute it at the counter unless the prescriber has noted "no substitution" on the prescription.
