As the market becomes more dynamic and prices fall across the GLP-1 landscape, more eligible patients are now able to find the treatment that works best for their lifestyle and budget. This launch reflects Hims & Hers’ ability to rapidly identify opportunities to help customers in global markets access safe, affordable care.<\/p>\n \n“Bringing generic semaglutide to Canada is a meaningful milestone, but it’s also a signal of something larger: our conviction that the model we’ve built in the United States can and should serve customers around the world,” said Mike Chi, Chief Operating Officer, Hims & Hers. “There are millions of people in markets around the world who are ready for more ways to find affordable, high-quality care. Our ability to enter a new market, build a locally credible program, deliver access to first-of-its-kind medical treatment, and generate real impact at scale is what sets us apart.”<\/p>\n \n“Generics have always played a critical role in expanding access to medicines that change lives,\u201d said Dr. Sandy Van, Obesity Medicine Specialist and Chief Medical Officer, Hims & Hers Canada. \u201cToday marks a turning point: more choice, lower costs, and a genuine commitment to care built around the whole patient. Every Canadian deserves access to the treatment that’s right for them, regardless of what they can afford.”<\/p>\n \nNow through Hims & Hers, eligible customers in Canada will have access to personalised care plans that may include generic semaglutide or branded options, alongside unlimited and ongoing Care Team access and evidence-informed resources built around nutrition, movement, and sleep, all designed to support sustainable, lasting habits for long-term weight management.
