Novo Nordisk ends deal with Hims & Hers over sales of Wegovy copycats; HIMS drops 20%

  • On June 23, 2025, Novo Nordisk announced that it would discontinue its partnership with Hims & Hers Health following concerns over the telehealth company's promotion and sale of unauthorized, lower-cost versions of Wegovy.
  • The partnership was terminated after Novo Nordisk accused Hims & Hers of unlawfully distributing large quantities of compounded drugs while misleadingly presenting them as customized treatments.
  • Novo Nordisk stated these knock-offs contain semaglutide ingredients from uninspected Chinese suppliers, posing patient safety risks while it continues to provide authentic Wegovy via trusted telehealth partners.
  • Hims & Hers' stock declined roughly 20% before the market opened following the announcement, after having climbed over 150% earlier in 2025 due to impressive revenue increases and a growing number of customers.
  • The termination signals caution for investors but Hims may still grow through alternative routes, while Novo Nordisk commits to safeguarding patients with FDA-approved obesity treatments.
