What FDA cited
Quoted verbatim from the letter dated
Read the full letter →This letter is to advise you that the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed your website content at the internet address https://www.forhers.com in August 2025 and has observed that your website offers various compounded drug products, including semaglutide.
- 1
“The following claims concerning your compounded semaglutide products appear on your website: • "Weekly injectable GLP-1 with the same active ingredient as Ozempic and Wegovy" • "Clinically proven ingredients"”
- 2
“Compounded drug products are not FDA-approved. Your claims imply that your products are the same as an FDA-approved product when they are not. As a result, these claims are false or misleading and your products are therefore misbranded under sections 502(a) and 502(bb) of the FDCA.”

Is Hers still operating?
Hims & Hers Health, Inc. trades publicly on the NYSE under ticker HIMS and continues to operate forhers.com. Our direct check returned a bot-protection response rather than a page, which is expected for a high-traffic consumer site behind bot mitigation and is not evidence of closure.
What this means for what you pay
As with the companion Hims letter, this is about a specific comparison in Hers's own ad copy, not a finding that the medication doesn't work or is unsafe. FDA said pairing "GLP-1" with "same active ingredient as Ozempic and Wegovy" implied an FDA evaluation the compounded product had not received. It doesn't change whether the price is fair — it changes how much weight to put on brand-name comparisons in Hers's own marketing.
Doseworth’s review of Hers has the pricing, the states served, and what’s included.
Has Hers responded?
As of , FDA’s public tracking for this letter does not show a logged company response. Companies are not required to make a response public, and FDA does not always update this field promptly — this is not evidence Hers failed to respond.
