Noom Med or Hims & Hers: which one has a price?
Only Noom Med has an all-in figure here: $199–$299 a month, read from its own page on 2026-09-22. Hims & Hers has none, so price cannot decide between them. Every axis below is computed from stored fields rather than written by hand, so the comparison moves when a price does. They were last checked on 2026-09-13 and 2026-09-22. On commitment they differ: Hims & Hers is month to month and Noom Med commits you for 3 months, which decides how expensive a mistake is. Flags recorded here: Hims & Hers — FTC lawsuit, state action, cancellation complaints, FDA warning letter. Hims & Hers supplies an FDA-approved product and Noom Med a compounded preparation made under the pharmacy-compounding exemption, which is a legal status rather than a quality claim. The published formula scores them 4.5 and 5.7 out of 10, arithmetic over the same stored fields rather than an editor's preference.

What separates these two, price aside
- They share semaglutide but not the product's legal status: Hims & Hers offers the FDA-approved product and Noom Med a compounded preparation, so they are not the same purchase. Noom Med also offers tirzepatide.
Hims & Hers
Pros
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]

Noom Med
Pros
- +The behavior-change program is the actual product and it predates the drug business — relevant because weight regain after stopping a GLP-1 is the norm, not the exception.[1]

The registers and documents behind both sides
Two cards compared on the same checks. These are the registers those checks were run against, and the FDA's own pages where either side is a compounded product.
- Warning letters, U.S. Food and Drug Administration — The register searched for every seller on this site. A letter found here is linked from the seller's page to the original.
- Cases and proceedings, Federal Trade Commission — The register searched for advertising and billing actions against a seller.
- Compounding and the FDA: questions and answers — What a compounded drug is, and what the FDA does and does not review before it is sold.
- Medications containing semaglutide marketed for type 2 diabetes or weight loss, FDA — The FDA's own notice on compounded semaglutide and what it has not evaluated.
Hims & Hers against Noom Med, answered
- Is Hims & Hers or Noom Med better for weight loss?
- Neither has a trial figure recorded here that could answer it, so this page does not pick one. What it can compare is commitment and what sits on each one's public record — all from stored figures with the date each was read.
- Which is cheaper, Hims & Hers or Noom Med?
- Hims & Hers publishes no all-in monthly price that could be verified, so this page carries no comparison rather than an estimate — and an unpublished price is itself worth weighing.
- Can you switch between Hims & Hers and Noom Med?
- Yes, but the product changes with the service: Hims & Hers offers branded semaglutide; Noom Med, compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide. Both prescribe through their own clinicians, so the one you move to writes its own prescription. On commitment, Hims & Hers is month to month and Noom Med commits you for 3 months; the longer term is the cost of leaving rather than of joining.
