Hims & Hers to offer Wegovy thanks to new partnership with Novo Nordisk

Hims & Hers Health announced on Tuesday that it will bundle Telehealth Platform membership and Wegovy through a new collaboration with drug maker Novo Nordisk.

The bundle offers all doses combined with Novo Nordisk's popular weight loss medication with HIMS & HERS membership, providing “24/7 care, ongoing clinical support and access to nutrition guidance.”

“We are thrilled to work with Novo Nordisk, a groundbreaking portfolio of clinical medicine and drugs,” Hims & her CEO Andrew Dudum said in a statement. “We share our vision for what consumer-centric healthcare looks like, and this is just the first step in delivering that future.”

It comes with a starting price of $599 each month. Novocare Pharmacy from Novo Nordisk, a direct-to-patient online pharmacy targeting Wegovy patients with cash salaries published last month, is available directly from the Telehealth Company's platform as part of the partnership.
