NuvaHealth vs Sprout Health
The verdict
Sprout Health takes it — 86.4/100 to 74/100.
Sprout Health grades higher on WeighScore, our editorial score across cost value, dose & formulation, clinical oversight, labs & monitoring, fulfillment and contract terms. A LegitScript-certified desk that pairs low-cost compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide with a real brand-name Wegovy and Zepbound path — and a near-frictionless, often visit-free start.

Graded #68 · C
Strengths
- LegitScript Certified seal displayed on the marketing site (the standard third-party telehealth/pharmacy accreditation)
- Free and fast delivery + 24/7 patient support disclosed on the home page
- Newark, DE address suggests a US-incorporated entity (vs offshore)
- $139 first-month price for compounded semaglutide injection is among the cheapest in the US compounded telehealth market
- $229 first-month price for compounded tirzepatide injection sits in the lower-median range
Where it loses points
- Standard ongoing monthly price NOT publicly disclosed (gated behind checkout) — patients should ask for the maintenance-dose price before committing
- Specific legal entity name + state of incorporation NOT publicly disclosed on the home page — material YMYL transparency gap
- Pharmacy partners NOT publicly named — material YMYL transparency gap
- Per-state availability NOT enumerated; verify your state ships before purchase
- Lab work + coaching support NOT publicly disclosed
Graded #6 · B
Strengths
- LegitScript-certified with a listed address and contact line
- Both compounded ($149 semaglutide / $199 tirzepatide) and a genuine brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound route
- Low-friction intake — no labs and often no telehealth visit required
Where it loses points
- Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved
- No oral or sublingual route — injectable only
- Thin transparency — no named medical director, and state availability is quiz-gated
- "No labs, no visit" convenience also means lighter clinical oversight
