Read our full Hims review →About Liberty
A semaglutide injection costs $199/month here, or roughly $171/month on a 3-month supply; the tirzepatide injection is $299/month. Liberty puts that at a saving of up to 85% against brand-name. Both are compounded GLP-1, drawn from 503B outsourcing facilities it describes as FDA-registered, and released after a quiz plus review by a licensed provider. All 50 states are covered, shipping costs nothing, 24/7 support is included, and FSA/HSA cards work. Microdosing, NAD+, sermorelin and metformin fill out the catalog. Which pharmacy partner it uses goes unstated. The company is Liberty Health.

Hims
What we like
- Shows its price before the medical questionnaire, so you can compare it without handing over health information
- The monthly price includes the medication
- Serves all 50 states
- Names 4 pharmacies that fill its prescriptions, which most sellers do not
Watch-outs
- Not included in the monthly price: clinician visits, coaching
- The FDA has issued Hims a warning letter. Read what it alleges: a letter flags a problem but does not by itself rule a seller out
- Its semaglutide is compounded rather than FDA-approved, so it has not been reviewed by the agency for safety, effectiveness or manufacturing quality
