GoodRx for Weight Loss

Pros

  • +Wegovy pens at $199 for the first two fills and $349 after, through GoodRx's agreement with Novo Nordisk — a manufacturer price rather than a coupon, with the $199 running to 31 December 2026.[1]
  • +Flexible fulfillment: in-store pickup at nearly all US retail pharmacies for Wegovy or Zepbound pens, or home delivery of Zepbound vials via LillyDirect.[1]
  • +Explicitly refuses to sell compounded GLP-1s — brand-name only, so no supply interruption from an FDA or manufacturer action.[1]
  • +Month-to-month.[1]

Cons

  • −The $39 a month membership comes on top of the medication; Wegovy pens bought direct from NovoCare, $349 after the first two fills, carry no membership fee.
  • −GoodRx is now a competitor to the programs it also lists, so its own comparison content cannot be treated as neutral.[2]

Hims & Hers

Pros

  • +Its iPhone app carries 94,685 ratings on Apple's listing, second only to PlushCare's among the sellers' own care apps — a measure of how many people have used it, not of how well it works.[5]
  • +Offers insurance support alongside the cash program.[3]

Cons

  • −On 29 July 2026 the FTC, joined by Utah and California, sued Hims alleging it enrolled consumers in recurring prescription subscriptions without express informed consent, obscured recurring refill charges, and made cancellation unnecessarily difficult.[6]
  • −The same complaint alleges Hims misrepresented how it handled sensitive health information and shared it with advertising platforms.[6]
  • −Hims never prices the membership and the medication together: $39 for a first month, $149 a month after, and the medication billed separately — so no monthly total is published to hold them to.
  • −Refunds are pro-rated case-by-case rather than by a published rule.[4]
