StayPrime is not a medical provider and does not prescribe medication. This information is educational only and is not medical advice. Talk to a licensed clinician about whether a GLP-1 medication is appropriate for you.
Hims is one of the largest U.S. consumer telehealth brands, publicly traded on NYSE since 2021. The platform started in men's health (hair loss, ED) and has expanded to mental health, dermatology, and now weight management. Hims' GLP-1 program prescribes compounded semaglutide via an asynchronous medical intake -- you fill out a questionnaire, a licensed provider reviews it on their schedule, and if approved, the prescription is filled by a partner compounding pharmacy. There is no live video visit. The program is priced as a monthly subscription that includes the medication and ongoing provider check-ins. Hims does not offer branded FDA-approved GLP-1s like Wegovy or Zepbound. If you specifically want a branded medication or insurance billing, this is not the right fit.
Best for
People who want a recognizable brand and a fast asynchronous flow.
Not for
Patients who want branded FDA-approved GLP-1s like Wegovy, or those who prefer live video visits with their prescribing provider rather than asynchronous intake.
