Nice. I may be going that route soon depending on what happens here…
I certainly value the hims model. I was really only slightly overweight, I mostly wanted to try it because I’ve heard it can help alcohol problems and I didn’t want to go to my doctor and be like please give me this so I drink less, and instead get referred to AA or something. It has definitely helped if for no other reason than the fact that I just can’t stand to intake that many calories. This stuff is truly kind of a miracle drug. Just hopeful I don’t get kidney cancer or something in 20 years…
They don’t have anywhere near the infrastructure nor regulatory arm to even begin to bring a drug over the FDA finish line.
I’ve participated in my fair share of PDUFAs; it’s a fucking beast.
