 Cost is a major driver of discontinuation: 14% of former GLP-1 users stopped due to cost, matching the 13% who stopped due to side effects. Among current users, 56% report difficulty affording medications, suggesting cost pressure operates throughout the treatment duration, not just at initiation. The 27% of insured users paying full out-of-pocket cost indicates insurance coverage gaps contribute to persistence failures.

+Cell/Med 2025 connects low persistence rates to the sustainability concern: chronic use model + high prices + discontinuation effects = fiscal unsustainability at scale. The paper notes need to 'consider acceptability over long term and implications for weight stigma,' suggesting that persistence barriers are not just clinical or financial but also social. The equity inversion compounds this: those with highest need face both highest discontinuation rates (per existing KB claims on wealth-stratified access) and lowest initial access, creating a double barrier to population-level impact.
