Medication options
Compounded from named 503A pharmacy partner. Includes testosterone where indicated.
The FDA officially removed semaglutide from the drug-shortage list in February 2025, which narrowed the legal basis for routine 503A compounding of exact-copy semaglutide. Hone Health addresses this by using a personalized-formulation model (the compound includes an additional active ingredient like vitamin B12) which is legally distinct from the FDA-approved product. The active GLP-1 molecule is the same; the regulatory framing is different. Some state pharmacy boards have tightened oversight in 2025-2026. For the full background see our compounded vs FDA-approved breakdown.

- None offered

- Hone markets compounded peptides beyond GLP-1; the broader peptide-marketing landscape has higher 2025-2026 regulatory exposure than GLP-1 alone

Where it's compounded
| Pharmacy | Not publicly disclosed |
| Regulatory model | Not specified |
| Disclosure | Not publicly disclosed |
Hone Health does not publicly name the pharmacy that compounds its GLP-1 medications. This is a transparency gap, not a statement about medication safety. Questions worth asking any program: is the pharmacy a named 503A or 503B facility, is it US-licensed, does it carry independent accreditation (PCAB, NABP), and does it provide sterility and potency testing results on request?
Hone Health refers publicly to a 'network of partner pharmacies' without naming any.
