GLP-1 price changes, newest first

The GLP-1 price-change log is a dated record of every self-pay price change we track for Zepbound, Wegovy, the Wegovy pill, Ozempic, Mounjaro and Foundayo. Each entry is a manufacturer announcement or a change we observed on a live price page, with its source. The same log feeds our charts and the RSS feed.
