消息公布后,Hims & Hers的股价进一步下跌,当日交易时段跌幅约12%。

Hims & Hers是美国减肥药物市场上规模最大的远程医疗服务商之一。该公司提供远程医疗问诊服务,并开具勃起功能障碍、脱发和心理健康药物的处方,直接配送给客户。

“联邦贸易委员会将毫不犹豫地代表那些被剥夺了选择产品权利,以及无法决定是否将自身最敏感健康信息保密的消费者采取行动,”美国联邦贸易委员会消费者保护局局长克里斯托弗·穆法里格在一份声明中表示。

Hims & Hers在社交媒体平台X上的发帖中称这些指控毫无根据。“这并非基于消费者保护的执法行动;这是一则试图以牺牲我们为代价制造头条新闻的行为,”该公司在帖子中说道。

联邦贸易委员会还指控,Hims & Hers在用户尚未有机会与医疗服务提供者面诊之前,就开始向用户收取处方费用。

据该机构称,大多数客户并未与医疗服务提供者进行面诊,而是在填写完 intake 表格后很快就被收取了处方费用。

联邦贸易委员会表示,Hims & Hers还设置障碍,让用户难以取消订阅服务。
