1 of the 8 programs below lists semaglutide for less than Hers's $348 a month. 1 of the 8 lists tirzepatide for less than its $448 a month.
Hers (Hims & Hers Health, NYSE: HIMS) now sells only FDA-approved branded GLP-1 medications for weight loss — Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro, and the new orforglipron pill 'Foundayo' — rather than compounded semaglutide.
Best for: Women who want brand-name Wegovy, Zepbound or a GLP-1 pill from a mainstream telehealth brand, and who will pay a monthly membership on top.
What Hers does well
- Sells only FDA-approved branded medications (Wegovy, Zepbound, Ozempic, Mounjaro) rather than compounded versions
- Multiple formats per drug (pill vs pen/vial), including a newer pill option and microdosing plan
- Large, publicly traded parent (Hims & Hers Health) with an established clinical/support infrastructure
Why readers look for an alternative
- The advertised 'From $X/mo' price is medication-only — a mandatory membership fee ($39 first month, then $149/mo, billed separately) is layered on top and roughly doubles the real steady-state monthly cost
- No compounded, lower-cost semaglutide or tirzepatide option
- The membership fee 'does not include or guarantee a prescription,' so it can recur even in a month without a fresh prescription
- FDA issued Hims & Hers Health, Inc. dba Hers a warning letter in September 2025; the letter is public in FDA's warning-letter database
