Disclosure: one company on this page — Coreage Rx — pays us a commission when a reader signs up through our link. It does not buy a better score, a higher ranking, or the removal of any criticism. The scoring rubric and the full disclosure are both published.
Both sell tirzepatide. Hims & Hers costs $238 a month and Coby Health costs $239, a difference of $1 a month or about $12 a year. What matters more is whether the two are dispensing the same category of product at all.
