DENVER, May 21, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Eden, the leading health platform connecting individuals with licensed providers and pharmacies focused on metabolic health, today announced the launch of its clinician-guided Hair Wellness Program. The program enables adults across the U.S. to explore prescription-based options such as oral minoxidil and finasteride following a virtual consultation with a licensed provider.

If a prescription is issued, it is filled by a state-licensed compounding pharmacy and shipped directly to the member's door. Other oral therapies (such as minoxidil and finasteride or spironolactone) are expected to become available later this year through Eden's provider and pharmacy network.

Eden's program is designed to offer individuals convenient access to medical evaluations and pharmacy-prepared treatments under the supervision of licensed professionals. The process requires telehealth visits and includes follow-up support to help patients stay informed and aligned with their provider's care plan.

"Hair-related concerns are often part of broader conversations around aging and wellness," said Adam McBride, CEO of Eden. "We created this program to give adults the ability to speak with a provider from home and access treatments that are typically hard to get outside of specialist clinics."

Key Program Components:

  • Telehealth Intake – Patients complete a secure health questionnaire and meet virtually with a licensed provider to assess eligibility for treatment.

  • Prescription Fulfillment – If appropriate, providers may prescribe oral minoxidil or finasteride. These are compounded medications prepared by state licensed pharmacies and shipped directly to the patient.

  • Ongoing Support – Eden's care coordination team offers follow-up check-ins at key milestones to help patients stay on track and informed throughout their care journey.

Oral minoxidil is a vasodilator that has been studied for off-label use in addressing certain hair-related concerns. Oral finasteride is FDA-approved for male pattern hair loss and may also be prescribed off-label in other contexts, based on a provider's clinical judgment. Compounded medications are customized for individual patients by licensed pharmacies and are not FDA-approved. They are prepared in accordance with provider orders to meet unique medical needs.

"This is about giving patients access to licensed care, clear guidance, and personalized formulations," said Dr. Rebecca Emch, PharmD, VP of Pharmacy and Medical Operations at Eden. "Our platform makes it easier for people to receive provider input and trusted treatment options."

"People want solutions that are professional, personalized, and backed by expertise, not more guesswork from store shelves or unregulated practitioners," said Josh Khan, President and Co-Founder at Eden. "We're excited to expand access to care that fits into real life and supports how people want to look and feel."

Pricing and Availability

The Hair Wellness Program is available in all 50 states. Plans start at $29/month. Medication is included only if prescribed and clinically appropriate.
