What does Sevmia cost in Quebec right now?

Sevmia is a generic semaglutide made by Apotex (developed with Orbicular Pharmaceutical Technologies), authorized by Health Canada on June 29, 2026 — the first generic version of Wegovy to be approved in Canada. The approval is national, so Quebec pharmacies will be eligible to stock Sevmia once Apotex begins distribution; no Quebec-specific rollout date has been announced. See the full regulatory timeline and sourcing on our generic Wegovy & semaglutide approval tracker.

No Sevmia price has been published for Quebec or any other province, so this guide cannot state one. Coverage status is also not yet determined. Quebec has a unique drug coverage structure: the RAMQ public drug plan is mandatory for any Quebec resident not covered by a private or employer-sponsored drug plan. Whether Sevmia will be listed on the RAMQ formulary is not yet known — formulary review by INESSS (Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux) typically follows well after Health Canada's regulatory approval, as was the case with the earlier generic semaglutide approvals. Check ramq.gouv.qc.ca directly once a listing decision is published, rather than assuming coverage.

As an honest brand-price anchor while Sevmia pricing is pending: brand-name Wegovy currently runs $270 to $550 among the Canadian pharmacies we track (see live figures on the Wegovy price comparison). For comparison, Quebec's cheapest tracked price for Apo-Semaglutide (Apotex's earlier Ozempic-referencing generic) is $99 per pen at Costco Pharmacy — the local floor set by an earlier Apotex generic, not a Sevmia figure. Health Canada also notes generics are typically 45–90% cheaper than brand once competition builds, and Canada's pan-Canadian Tiered Pricing Framework caps generic list prices as more manufacturers enter a market (75% of brand for the first three months with one generic, 55% after, 50% with two generics, 35% with three or more — full detail on the generic-alert page).

We track Quebec pharmacy prices daily via our automated scraper and manual verification, and this guide is built to update itself the instant a verified Sevmia price is confirmed in Quebec. In the meantime, join the free alert to be notified by email when Sevmia prices go live, or see our companion guide to generic Ozempic (Apo-Semaglutide) pricing in Quebec, the earlier Apotex generic that is already tracked with live prices.

Same for Quebec: pricing is pending, but our guide to getting generic semaglutide prescribed online in Canada already covers how a prescription for either generic gets written, including what a pharmacist can substitute at the counter.

Frequently asked questions

What is Sevmia?
Sevmia is a generic semaglutide made by Apotex (developed with Orbicular Pharmaceutical Technologies), authorized by Health Canada on June 29, 2026 — the first generic version of Wegovy approved in Canada. The full regulatory facts and approval timeline are published on our generic Wegovy tracker.
When will Sevmia be available in Quebec?
No Quebec-specific rollout date has been announced. Health Canada's June 29, 2026 approval is national, so Quebec pharmacies are eligible to stock Sevmia once Apotex begins distribution. For a rough reference point, Apotex's earlier Ozempic-referencing generic (Apo-Semaglutide) had its first verified Quebec pharmacy price appear a few weeks after its own Health Canada approval — Sevmia's timeline may differ. We track new Quebec pharmacy prices daily and will update this guide automatically once a verified Sevmia price appears.
How much will Sevmia cost in Quebec?
No Sevmia price has been published for Quebec, so we cannot state one yet. For the most current status, see our national Sevmia price guide, which tracks verified prices across Canada and updates automatically the moment any land. As a general hedge: Health Canada notes generic medicines are typically 45–90% cheaper than the brand once competition builds, and brand-name Wegovy currently runs $270 to $550 among the Canadian pharmacies we track. Quebec's Apo-Semaglutide floor at Costco Pharmacy ($99 per pen) already runs higher than Ontario's or BC's ($88) — a gap our Quebec generic Ozempic guide traces to Quebec's regulated pharmacy pricing model — so a Quebec Sevmia price may follow a similar pattern, though that is not a promise.
Sevmia vs Wegovy: which will cost less?
Sevmia has no price on file yet, so we can't declare a winner — but the answer will almost certainly be Sevmia once pricing lands. Health Canada notes that generic medicines are typically 45–90% cheaper than the brand once competition builds, which is why generics exist in the first place. Brand-name Wegovy currently runs $270 to $550 among the Canadian pharmacies we track — see live, verified figures on our Wegovy cost guide. The moment a verified Sevmia price is confirmed, this guide and that one will both update automatically so you can compare directly.
Where will Sevmia likely be sold first in Quebec?
No stocking announcements have been made yet. Apotex's earlier Ozempic-referencing generic, Apo-Semaglutide, first appeared at Costco Pharmacy locations in Laval, Montreal (Anjou and Pointe-Claire), and Quebec City (Sainte-Foy) before spreading to other Quebec chains — a rough precedent for where a new Apotex generic tends to land first in Quebec, though Sevmia's own rollout may differ. We track new pharmacy prices daily and will update this guide automatically as soon as a verified Quebec price appears.
Is Sevmia covered by RAMQ?
Sevmia has no RAMQ listing decision published yet — it is a newly approved product, and formulary review by INESSS (Institut national d'excellence en santé et en services sociaux) takes time to follow Health Canada's regulatory approval, as it did for the earlier generic semaglutide approvals. Separately from the regular list, RAMQ maintains a patient-specific exception request process (the Politique du médicament d'exception) that a prescriber can use to request coverage for a drug outside the regular list — that process exists independently of whether Sevmia has a standard listing. Coverage should not be assumed either way. Check the current RAMQ list at ramq.gouv.qc.ca or ask your pharmacist for the latest status, and if you hold private or employer group insurance, contact your plan administrator directly to verify reimbursement.
How is Sevmia different from Apo-Semaglutide in Quebec?
Both are Apotex generic semaglutide products available (or becoming available) in Quebec, but they reference different brand-name products. Apo-Semaglutide Injection (approved May 1, 2026) references brand-name Ozempic and already has verified Quebec pharmacy prices — $99 per pen at Costco Pharmacy. Sevmia (approved June 29, 2026) references brand-name Wegovy and has no Quebec price on file yet. See the Apo-Semaglutide Quebec guide for the tracked generic.

This guide is built to update itself automatically the moment a verified Quebec Sevmia price is confirmed.
