Weight loss medications are changing the game for people with overweight and obesity. There are many different types, including weight loss pills and GLP-1 injections. 

Some are FDA-approved for weight loss, while others are prescribed off-label at the discretion of a licensed healthcare provider. Off-label use is when a medication is prescribed to treat a condition that it hasn’t been FDA-approved to treat. 

Through Hers and Found, you can access weight loss medications — if a provider determines they’re appropriate for you — without having to visit a doctor in person.

Here are the prescription medications available through each platform:

Hers Weight Loss Medications

Hers offers access to injectable or oral weight loss medications. 

The GLP-1 (glucagon-like peptide-1) receptor agonist medications available through the Hers platform include:

  • Wegovy®. Wegovy® is another weekly injection that contains the same active ingredient as Ozempic (semaglutide). It comes in a higher maximum dose and is FDA-approved for people with a body mass index (BMI) of 30 or more or 27 or more with a weight-related health condition, like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, or heart disease.

  • Ozempic. Ozempic may be a household name, but it isn’t actually approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for weight loss. It’s FDA-approved to treat type 2 diabetes and prescribed off-label for weight loss. This weekly injection can reduce appetite and quiet food cravings while increasing feelings of fullness. 

  • Mounjaro. FDA-approved for those with type 2 diabetes, Mounjaro is sometimes prescribed off-label for weight loss. It’s a once-weekly injection containing the active ingredient tirzepatide, and it works by reducing appetite and increasing fullness.

  • Zepbound. Zepbound has the same active ingredient as Mounjaro (tirzepatide) in the same dose. The difference is that it’s FDA-approved for weight loss.

  • Generic liraglutide. Liraglutide is the active ingredient in Saxenda® and Victoza®, which are approved for weight management and type 2 diabetes, respectively.

Hers also offers access to weight loss pills, including: 

  • Bupropion. Bupropion is an antidepressant that can be prescribed off-label in combination with other medications to help support weight loss. 

  • Metformin. Metformin is FDA-approved as a diabetes drug and sometimes prescribed off-label for weight loss. The daily pill can suppress appetite and promote insulin sensitivity.

  • Topiramate. Topiramate (or the brand-name version, Topamax®) is an antiseizure drug that’s prescribed off-label for weight loss. It suppresses appetite, which can make you feel fuller for longer.

  • Naltrexone. Naltrexone reduces cravings for alcohol and opioids.

Hers offers access to personalized oral weight loss kits that include a combination of  the above medications — and vitamin B12 — in a way that suits your body, health needs, and goals, starting as low as $69 a month, for a 10-month plan.

Both injections and pills can be effective for weight loss. Your health status, medical history, and preferences will help your licensed provider determine which treatment is best for you, if appropriate.

Hers Personalized Medication Solutions

Mild digestive side effects may occur with many weight loss medications. To help manage these, licensed providers trained in weight management typically begin treatment at a lower dose and slowly raise it over time.

Eligible Hers customers who are prescribed GLP-1 injections or oral weight loss medications are also eligible for prescription anti-nausea medication — at no additional cost. This unique offer from Hers is a great perk for folks worried about side effects like nausea and vomiting. 

If your provider prescribes ondansetron (generic for Zofran®), you can take it as directed to treat nausea associated with weight loss medications.You can also message a provider through the Hers platform at any time if you’d like to discuss changes to your treatment plan, including switching medications, shifting dosing schedules, or requesting anti-nausea medications.

Found Weight Loss Medications

Found offers access to injectable and oral weight loss medications.

The injections include Wegovy® and Ozempic Wegovy®, as well as:

  • Mounjaro. FDA-approved for those with type 2 diabetes, Mounjaro is sometimes prescribed off-label for weight loss. It’s a once-weekly injection that works by reducing appetite and increasing fullness.

  • Zepbound. Zepbound has the same active ingredient as Mounjaro (tirzepatide) in the same dose. The difference is It’s FDA-approved for weight loss.

  • Trulicity. Trulicity is approved for type 2 diabetes and is sometimes prescribed off-label for weight loss. It contains the active ingredient dulaglutide, which works by suppressing appetite.

  • Victoza. Victoza is another diabetes medication sometimes used for weight loss. The active ingredient is liraglutide, which targets appetite and fullness. The key difference here is it’s a daily injection, rather than a weekly one.

  • Saxenda. Saxenda (liraglutide) is approved for weight loss and also comes in a daily injection.

Found also offers access to weight loss pills, including:

  • Metformin

  • Contrave

  • Topiramate

  • Rybelsus

  • Zonisamide

Rybelsus is FDA-approved for diabetes and sometimes used off-label for weight loss. It’s a daily pill containing the active ingredient semaglutide.

Zonisamide is sold under the brand name Zonisade® and is also a daily pill. It’s FDA-approved to help prevent seizures.

Medication is just one part of the weight loss puzzle. So, you want to get your meds from a company that offers plenty of support and guidance as you progress in your weight loss journey. 

Both Hers and Found offer access to additional services that can help you lose weight and build healthy habits.

Here’s how they compare.

You can get prescribed weight loss medication online without needing to book an appointment with a doctor IRL. Here’s what the process looks like.

Weight Loss By Hers

Here is a rundown of how Hers works:

  1. Online assessment. To kick things off, you’ll take a free online assessment and fill in information about your weight, lifestyle, goals, and medical history.

  2. Healthcare provider evaluation. A licensed provider will review your information to determine the best treatment option for you, if eligible. This happens 100 percent online. There’s typically no need for a video or phone consultation, but they are required in a few states.

  3. Medication prescription and treatment plan. If prescribed, you’ll get medication and a personalized weight loss plan.

  4. Direct shipping. Medication is shipped to your door, along with supplies and instructions, at no additional cost. 

  5. Unlimited ongoing provider access. You’ll get 24/7 unlimited access to healthcare providers trained in weight management via the Hers app. You can ask questions, discuss any potential side effects that crop up (like nausea or constipation), or get adjustments to your prescription if needed.

Found Weight Loss Program

To get started with Found, you’ll fill out an online assessment, sharing information about your weight, lifestyle, goals, and any medical conditions you have.

A licensed provider will go over your answers and set up a consultation. They ask you to get lab work done at a local lab or submit the results of a recent blood test. If suitable, you’ll get a prescription and personalized plan. 

To get medication through Found, you’ll need to sign up for a monthly membership. Membership gives you access to Found’s weight loss app. But GLP-1s and weight loss injections are not included in the price of your Found plan. 

Medication is delivered to your home.

You’ll get up to four provider consultations in your first month of treatment and up to two consultations every month after that. You’ll have unlimited access to an online health coach and can message providers with any questions via the app.

Now for the burning question: How do the Hers and Found weight loss programs compare on price? We’ll break it down below.

Hers pricing is simple, transparent, and all-inclusive, which means no surprise fees added at the last minute.

Weight Loss by Hers offers a variety of subscription models to accommodate a range of budgets and weight loss treatments start from $69 a month with a 10-month plan. 

Through Hers, you can also access GLP-1s starting at $299 a month, or Wegovy® at a discounted price when compared to retail price — starting at $599 a month with a six-month plan.

Your upfront payment covers everything, from the app to provider check-ins, prescription updates, shipping, and access to a care team.

If you have a health savings account (HSA) or flexible spending account (FSA), you can use the funds to cover some of your costs. (Please note that plans may vary). This could save you around 30 percent.*

That said, you don’t need insurance to access Hers weight loss treatments. 

*FSA/HSA eligibility and coverage vary by plan provider. Actual savings depend on your tax rate.

What’s included in the cost of Weight Loss by Hers?  

  • Your initial consultation

  • Medications and medication supplies, when applicable

  • Prescription anti-nausea medication (for those who qualify)   

  • Two-day shipping (processing times may vary)  

  • Monthly Progress check-ins

  • Full access to the Hers app, including recipes, videos, and habit trackers

  • Unlimited access to licensed providers to ask questions or get dose adjustments

When you get medication through Hers, it’s delivered directly to your home in discreet packaging. When necessary, temperature-controlled shipping is available to keep your medication stable. Two-day shipping is available in many areas, but processing times may vary.

Found Weight Loss Cost 

Found typically requires a monthly membership fee ranging from $99 to $149 a month, depending on your subscription plan. Subscriptions do not include the cost of GLP-1 medications. 

The most affordable GLP-1s available through Found cost an extra $650 a month. 

Subscription plans include:

  • One month 

  • Three months

  • Six months

If you want to cancel early, you’ll need to pay a cancellation fee. You may also need to get lab work done, which would cost extra. 

Found accepts insurance, and the team helps you navigate the coverage process. If you do secure coverage for brand-name weight loss medications, your Found membership fee could cost as little as $17 a month. 

Found has free shipping. It may take three to five days to get your medication.

A Hers survey found that women lost an average of 15 pounds after six months of treatment through Hers. The survey is based on self-reported data as of March 2025 from approximately 1,172 Hers customers on a personalized treatment plan including oral medication kits, along with a reduced-calorie diet and exercise. 

Separately, Clinical trials show that people taking Wegovy® lost an average of about 20 percent of their body weight over approximately 68 weeks, with longer-term studies supporting its sustained efficacy.*

According to a survey cited on its website, Found users lose an average of 12 percent of their body weight during their first year — but it’s unclear which medication they’re taking.  

On the Better Business Bureau (BBB) website, Hims & Hers has an A+ rating and 3.8 stars out of five, based on almost 5,500 reviews. On the same website, Found has an A+ rating and 3.56 stars out of five, based on roughly 25 reviews.

*Along with a reduced calorie diet and increased exercise. Based on two separate Wegovy® clinical studies. In a 68-week study, about 1 in 3 adults with obesity or overweight and weight-related conditions achieved 20% weight loss. Average weight loss achieved was 15%. In a 104-week study, mean weight loss achieved at 2 years was 15.2% vs. 2.6% for placebo. Individual results may vary. Stopping treatment may result in weight regain.

There are a lot of choices to make when you start a weight loss journey.

Here’s one final look at the differences between Found versus Hers for weight loss: 

  • Medications available. Hers offers access to personalized oral medication kits starting at $69 per month for a 10-month plan, paid upfront in full.
