Hims & Hers is one of the biggest names in telehealth, and its weight-loss plans pair a monthly membership with separately priced brand-name medication. GobyMeds does it differently: compounded semaglutide from $91/mo with code COMPARE25, all in, with no membership fee. Here is the full price on both sides.

Compare the recurring all-in monthly total, not the "from" price in the headline. Hims & Hers advertises medication and membership separately, so we add them up using the prices visible on its pages in October 2026:
These are analyst calculations from publicly visible "from" prices; your checkout total depends on dose and plan, and the membership figure comes from third-party reporting because Hims' own pages were not crawlable.³ Brand-name medications are FDA-approved products — a different product class from compounded medication, and a fair reason their prices run higher.
GobyMeds, by contrast, prices compounded medication as a single total: $274 for a 3-month compounded semaglutide starter ($91/mo) or $374 for compounded tirzepatide ($124/mo), with the provider visit and shipping included and no membership. The price you see is the price you pay, and you only pay if a licensed provider prescribes.
GobyMeds prices on this page are first-order prices with code COMPARE25 applied ($25 off). The regular 3-month starter prices are $299 for compounded semaglutide ($99/mo) and $399 for compounded tirzepatide ($133/mo); each 3-month starter is a 90-day supply, and every order earns loyalty credit toward the next one.
Published terms as we recorded them, with the source for each line.
Don't get locked into a plan that doesn't work for you. Your dose can change after your first 3 months — your provider will work with you to adjust your medication for your goals. Every order is a single purchase, so the price you see is the price you pay.
Answers about this provider, then the questions we get on every comparison.
For compounded semaglutide, GobyMeds starts at $91/mo all-in with code COMPARE25 ($99/mo regular), with no membership fee. Hims & Hers pairs brand-name medication listed "from" $149–$299/mo with a reported $149/mo membership, which works out to $298–$448/mo by our calculation.²³ The two sell different product classes, so compare your actual checkout quotes for the medication you want.
Only in limited cases. In March 2026 Hims & Hers announced it would stop advertising compounded GLP-1s and offer them only when a provider determines a compounded product is clinically necessary; its public weight-loss offer now centers on FDA-approved medications.¹ GLPwinner, a third-party price tracker, still logs a Hims compounded semaglutide option for Texas at $399/month, or $299/month on a 3-month plan (October 2026).⁴
Third-party reporting puts it at $39 for the first month and $149/mo after that, billed on top of the medication price.³ Hims' own pages were not crawlable when we checked, so confirm the current membership fee at checkout.
Yes. GobyMeds offers brand-name Wegovy®, Ozempic®, Zepbound® and Mounjaro® in addition to compounded options. Brand-name prices differ from the compounded starter prices on this page.
Hims & Hers' public offer is brand-name, FDA-approved medication. GobyMeds' lowest prices are for compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, prepared by licensed US pharmacies for an individual prescription; compounded medications are not FDA-approved. A licensed provider determines which option, if any, is appropriate for you.
Yes. Start the free eligibility check and tell the provider which medication and dose you're on now; a licensed provider will decide whether continuing at that dose is appropriate. Check your Hims membership terms so you know when it renews.
Brand-name drugs like Wegovy® and Zepbound® are FDA-approved products from Novo Nordisk and Eli Lilly. Compounded medications are prepared by licensed pharmacies for an individual patient based on a provider's prescription; they are not FDA-approved and are not reviewed by the FDA for safety or efficacy. That distinction is a large part of why cash prices for compounded medication are lower. GobyMeds offers both — your provider will discuss which is appropriate for you.
Two reasons. First, GobyMeds' entry prices are for compounded medication; providers whose public offer is brand-name medication are selling a different, more expensive product class. Second, GobyMeds has no membership fee, so there's no second recurring charge stacked on top of the medication — the price includes the provider visit, the medication and shipping.
No. GobyMeds has no membership fee, and every order is a single purchase: you see the full price for your plan before you pay, and nothing bills you in the background. The 3-month starters are $299 for compounded semaglutide and $399 for compounded tirzepatide, all in — $274 and $374 on a first order with code COMPARE25.
GobyMeds prices each plan as a total for its dose tier and supply length, and every plan shows its full price before you pay. Your provider will work with you to adjust your medication for your goals, and you're never asked to prepay more than the order in hand — plus every order earns loyalty credit toward the next one — $30 on a starter bundle.
Code COMPARE25 takes $25 off any first order — $274 instead of $299 for the compounded semaglutide starter ($91/mo), $374 instead of $399 for compounded tirzepatide ($124/mo). One use per customer, applied at checkout. The GobyMeds prices on these pages already have the code applied and say so; the regular prices are shown alongside them, so you can compare either way.
No. GobyMeds is cash-pay: no insurance, no prior authorizations, no copay surprises. HSA and FSA cards are accepted on every plan.
No, and be cautious of anyone who implies otherwise. A licensed provider reviews your health history and determines whether treatment is appropriate for you. The eligibility check is free, and you only pay if a provider prescribes — your card isn't charged until your medication ships.
Many GobyMeds patients switched from another telehealth service. Mention your current medication and dose in the intake, and your provider will review whether continuing at your current dose is appropriate. Check your current provider's renewal date so you can cancel on your terms.
Every page shows the date its competitor prices were last verified, and every figure is footnoted with its source and access date. Rows marked est. are our calculations from a provider's published terms, not prices it quotes as one number. Telehealth pricing changes often — especially promotional rates — so always confirm a provider's current price on its own checkout page, and if you spot an error, email us.
It means the provider doesn't publish that figure as one number, so we built it from its published terms — for example, adding a membership fee to a medication price, or dividing a prepaid total by the months it covers. Each calculation's inputs and the pages they came from are listed in the sources at the bottom of the page.
Looking for a Hims alternative? If the membership-plus-medication structure is what's holding you back, GobyMeds removes the second line item: one price, medication and provider care included, and every order a single purchase. Your provider will determine whether compounded semaglutide, compounded tirzepatide or a brand-name option is appropriate for you.
First orders on the compare pages also take $25 off with code COMPARE25, and every order earns loyalty credit toward the next one — $30 on a starter bundle.
You only pay if a licensed provider prescribes. Your card isn't charged until your medication ships — a temporary hold is placed at checkout and released, typically within 24 hours depending on your bank, if you're not eligible.
