Sprout Health vs Effecty
The verdict
Sprout Health takes it — 86/100 to 84/100, but only just.
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. Effecty is close behind and may still be the better fit — see the factor split below.
Assume any provider we list may compensate us — we may earn a commission at no cost to you. It never changes the WeighScore.

Graded #12 · 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
Graded #18 · B
Strengths
- Brand-name access
- LegitScript-verified, all 50 states
- Both molecules
Where it loses points
- Higher pricing ($160/$240)
- Injection-only
- Not a value leader
