"hims" is selling Compound Pharmacy drugs, which will be made illegal soon. Soon your options will be $1000-1500/month from the two big drug companies.
They're meant to have a vial-needle version, but it is $600/month and you can only do it for up to 5-months and a low max dose. So it isn't a real program, but rather a way to avoid critique from legislators.
- _heimdall 2y agoWhy are they making it illegal? Is there an issue with the compound, or is it an issue if lobbyists protecting the more profitable drug?
- wcfields 2y agoIt’s “legal” because of the lack of supply in critical medications so the FDA gives a variance to allow compound pharmacies to produce/sell critical medications until supply issues are resolved.
- EasyMark 2y agoSeems to me there is a lack of supply for low cost semaglutide (and similar). That should be enough for the FDA to say “I’ll allow it”
