Read our full Hims review →About Revel Health
Revel Health keeps its prices off the front of the funnel. Turnaround on the intake is quick: a physician reads it inside an hour, then medication goes out. Board-certified physicians write the GLP-1s, semaglutide and tirzepatide, compounded at facilities meeting USP 795/800, and the same platform sells NAD+, sermorelin and peptide therapy on a longevity angle. It carries LegitScript certification and reaches 45 states; Alaska, Arkansas, North Carolina, New Jersey and Mississippi are out.

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

Watch-outs
