At a time when traditional in-person services have been disrupted, telemedicine services are changing the way people get the care they need—and Ro, the direct-to-consumer virtual health startup, is now expanding its offerings to include prescription products. As an alternative to making a specialty appointment, patients now have the option to use Ro to receive products like eczema treatments, medical-grade antiperspirants and prescription dandruff shampoo, as well as a nightly defense skincare solution that's coming soon.
Ro is making its new prescription products available on both Rory, the platform for female health, and Roman, the equivalent for male consumers. As such, these platforms are becoming one-stop shops for a variety of health needs, ranging from daily health and sexual wellness.
