Hims & Hers stock plunged around 30% on Monday after drugmaker Novo Nordisk abruptly ended a month-long collaboration to make its weight loss drug Wegovy available on the telehealth company’s platform.
Novo Nordisk cited concerns about Hims & Hers selling and promoting knock-off compounded GLP-1 drugs, which are more affordable versions of the popular weight loss medications.
Direct access to Wegovy will no longer be available to Hims & Hers Health via the company’s online pharmacy, NovoCare Pharmacy, the company said in a press release.
