Hims: a closer look

The biggest brand: generic sildenafil from $22 a month and finasteride from $22, plus many compounded mints and sprays. The FDA has sent Hims a warning letter: FDA sent Hims & Hers a warning letter on September 9, 2025 about claims for compounded semaglutide (GLP-1 weight loss), not its ED or hair loss products.

In its favour

  • Free discreet shipping and no separate visit fee
  • Names its dispensing pharmacies

To weigh

  • Headline prices are paid upfront, plan length not shown
  • Many featured products are compounded, not FDA-approved
  • Pending FTC lawsuit over billing, cancellation and health data (allegations)

Lemonaid Health: a closer look

Generic sildenafil and tadalafil at $2 a pill after a one-time $25 consult; finasteride $60 for 3 months. We searched the FDA warning-letter database on October 31, 2026 and found no letter naming Lemonaid Health.

In its favour

  • $2 a pill for generic sildenafil or tadalafil
  • One $25 consult covers 12 refills
  • Can send the prescription to a local pharmacy

To weigh

  • The $25 consult is on top, so no all-in monthly price
  • Compounded Bliss and Ironwood cost far more per dose
  • Small Trustpilot sample
