Wow, this is not a topic I expected to see on HackerNews!
One big problem with semaglutide is that it's really expensive to access - even with goodrx, wegovy (which has semaglutide as an active ingredient) can cost ~$1400*! So, for many people who are uninsured or underinsured it's simply not attainable.
My startup has been working on this problem all year and we just launched a semaglutide program for $149/month - including medication and provider visits.

- ericb 4y agoHow can HenryMeds associated pharmacy get semaglutide? Someone has to be be making it for them, which is confusing. I'm tempted to sign up, but there's a really weird sense where it seems it can't be real because there's no apparent source? http://henrymeds.com/semaglutide/?referrer=hn http://henrymeds.com/semaglutide/?referrer=hn
