Quick verdict

Noom Med is the better pick for most patients on overall scoring. The behavioral app most people loved is now bundled with a medication tier and a microdose option that no other major program offers. Watch the dual billing.

That said, Hims & Hers wins on specific dimensions. Same-day prescription, no lock-in, and brand-name confidence. The famous $199 compounded era ended in March 2026 after the Novo Nordisk settlement; new patients now route to branded products only.
