Provider review

Hims & Hers review

Brand-name Wegovy on a big platform, with a membership charged beside it.

The membership is separate from the medication, so there is no single flat figure to compare.

Price, exactly as they publish it

Membership $39 first month, then $149/mo; brand Wegovy ~$299/mo and Zepbound ~$399/mo billed separately (often lower with insurance + savings card)

Semaglutide is prescription-only and compounded semaglutide is not the FDA-approved brand product — decide with a clinician. Prices are as the provider published them when we last checked; confirm current terms before you buy.

How Semawise makes money (plainly)

Here's the honest version: some of the links on this site are affiliate links, routed through the Katalys network. Click one and go on to start a treatment or buy something, and we may earn a commission — without costing you a single penny more. That's what keeps the lights on and the answers free. The part that matters: a commission never buys a softer review, a different price, or kinder pros and cons. What it does buy is position — affiliate partners are listed ahead of providers we have no relationship with, and we say so on each board rather than only here. Want the longer version? It's all in our full disclosure.

The verdict

Hims & Hers pivoted to brand-name FDA-approved options after a 2026 settlement with Novo Nordisk, so what it sells now is real Wegovy, oral Wegovy and Zepbound through an authorised channel — its legacy compounded semaglutide is being phased out by the middle of 2026 and only for existing patients. The platform is large and well known and the visits are app-based. The cost structure is the problem: a recurring membership is billed on top of the medication, that membership does not guarantee you a prescription, and brand-name pricing runs above the compounded rows on this board.

The trade-off we'd want you to read first

Stacked cost: the $149/mo membership is charged on top of the brand medication (~$299/mo for Wegovy)

Who it suits, and who it doesn't

A good fit if

  • You want the genuine FDA-approved product, and possibly the oral Wegovy tablet
  • You have insurance or a savings card that brings the brand-name price down
  • You want app-based visits from a platform that will still exist in two years

Look elsewhere if

  • You are a legacy compounded patient — that line is being phased out and you will need somewhere to go
  • You are paying cash, where brand-name medication plus a membership is among the most expensive routes here
  • You object to paying a membership that does not guarantee you a prescription at the end of it

How the programme actually works

Large telehealth platform that, following a 2026 settlement with Novo Nordisk, has pivoted to brand-name FDA-approved options — Wegovy, oral Wegovy and Zepbound — as an authorized distribution channel (its legacy compounded semaglutide is being phased out by mid-2026). The membership is billed on its own; the medication is a separate cost on top, so there is no single flat figure.

What it does well

  • Brand-name FDA-approved semaglutide (Wegovy / oral Wegovy), useful if you have insurance coverage
  • Large, well-known platform with app-based provider visits and ongoing care

The other trade-offs

  • Membership does not guarantee a prescription, and brand pricing runs higher than compounded rivals
  • Compounded semaglutide is being phased out by mid-2026 (legacy patients only)

If this one isn't it

If Hims & Hers is not it, these are not our favourites and they are not the ones that pay the most — each is the provider closest to this one that does better on the axis this one does worst on. The axis is named on every card, with both providers’ own published wording underneath, so you can check the claim rather than take it.

Any link on this page may earn us a commission if you go on to start care, at no extra cost to you — see our full disclosure. The cards above are chosen by the rule stated at the top of this section, which is computed from published figures and has no access to which providers pay us.

Before you buy

Semaglutide is a prescription medicine, and the compounded version is not the same regulated product as brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic. Whatever you decide, decide it with a clinician who knows your history — and go into that conversation with real numbers.

Where this sits on the board

Hims & Hers is one of 27 telehealth semaglutide programmes we track. The board puts every published price on one screen, ordered with the companies that pay us first — a mechanism we state there, on the page it applies to, rather than only in the small print.

Semaglutide is prescription-only and compounded semaglutide is not the FDA-approved brand product — decide with a clinician. Prices are as the provider published them when we last checked; confirm current terms before you buy.
