Provider review
Sprout Health review
Almost no friction to start, and that is the worry as much as the selling point.
No labs are required and often no telehealth visit either, which is fast if you are well and thin if you are not.
Price, exactly as they publish it
Compounded semaglutide from $149/mo and tirzepatide from $199/mo (company-stated); a real brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound path is also offered
Semaglutide is prescription-only and compounded semaglutide is not the FDA-approved brand product — decide with a clinician. Prices are as the provider published them when we last checked; confirm current terms before you buy.
How Semawise makes money (plainly)
Here's the honest version: some of the links on this site are affiliate links, routed through the Katalys network. Click one and go on to start a treatment or buy something, and we may earn a commission — without costing you a single penny more. That's what keeps the lights on and the answers free. The part that matters: a commission never buys a softer review, a different price, or kinder pros and cons. What it does buy is position — affiliate partners are listed ahead of providers we have no relationship with, and we say so on each board rather than only here. Want the longer version? It's all in our full disclosure.
The verdict
Sprout Health pairs a low compounded entry point with something most compounders lack — a genuine brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound route — plus LegitScript certification, a listed address and a contact line. Intake is deliberately frictionless: no labs are required and in many cases no telehealth visit either. That is convenient, and it is also the part to think hardest about, because a prescription for a medicine with real gastrointestinal and gallbladder risk is being written without anyone examining you. It is injectable only, no medical director is named, and you cannot see whether your state is served until you have taken the quiz.
The trade-off we'd want you to read first
Injectable only — no oral or sublingual route
Who it suits, and who it doesn't
A good fit if
- You have already talked semaglutide through with your own doctor and want a prescriber, not a second opinion
- You want an independently certified compounder with a real address rather than an anonymous brand
- You want the option to move to brand-name Wegovy or Zepbound without changing provider
Look elsewhere if
- You take other medicines or have other conditions and want a clinician to actually look at them before prescribing
- You want baseline bloodwork on file — none is required and none is offered
- You want to confirm it operates in your state before handing over your details; that answer sits behind the quiz
How the programme actually works
Sprout Health is a LegitScript-certified telehealth brand that pairs a low compounded entry point with a genuine brand-name route. Compounded semaglutide starts at $149/month and tirzepatide at $199/month (company-stated) and, unlike most compounders, it also offers a real brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound path. Intake is deliberately low-friction: no labs are required and often no telehealth visit either, so the start is close to frictionless. The trade-offs are transparency and scope — the compounded product is 503A-style and not FDA-approved, it is injectable only with no oral route, there is no named medical director, and state availability is gated behind a quiz.

If this one isn't it
If Sprout Health is not it, these are not our favourites and they are not the ones that pay the most — each is the provider closest to this one that does better on the axis this one does worst on. The axis is named on every card, with both providers’ own published wording underneath, so you can check the claim rather than take it.

Before you buy
Semaglutide is a prescription medicine, and the compounded version is not the same regulated product as brand-name Wegovy or Ozempic. Whatever you decide, decide it with a clinician who knows your history — and go into that conversation with real numbers.
Where this sits on the board
Sprout Health is one of 27 telehealth semaglutide programmes we track. The board puts every published price on one screen, ordered with the companies that pay us first — a mechanism we state there, on the page it applies to, rather than only in the small print.
