What to weigh up

  • Listed compounded semaglutide price excludes a required membership
  • Not available in 3 states + DC that HumeCare+ serves
HumeCare+ logo

Choose HumeCare+ if…

  • Lists oral compounded semaglutide, which Collective doesn't price
  • Serves 3 states + DC that Collective doesn't
  • Pairs compounded semaglutide with continuous body-composition tracking (lose fat, preserve muscle)

What to weigh up

  • Not available in Arkansas
