Side-by-side comparison

Feature	Sprout Health	telos rx
Best for	Balance of price and clinical support	One integrated care team across GLP-1, hormones/longevity, sexual health, and recovery (peptide-led telehealth) rather than a single-indication weight-loss pure-play
Medication type	Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide; brand-name Wegovy/Zepbound listed cash-pay	Compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide (injectable, plus needle-free oral/sublingual and a microdosed tirzepatide) inside an integrated peptide-led telehealth menu; medical services by an independent US-licensed medical group (Arora Health Group)
Pricing model	12-month plan billed every 12 months, or a monthly plan billed every 4 weeks; Sprout states the same price at any dose (homepage, 2026-10-06)	Cash-pay subscription with 'first month low as' intro pricing per medication; the ongoing recurring rate is NOT published on the public site (funnel-gated at start.telosrx.com), no single defensible recurring price (Oak/LIV Body mechanism)
Semaglutide price	From $99/mo on the 12-month plan (billed $1,188 every 12 months); $149 per 4 weeks on the monthly plan; same price at any dose (compounded semaglutide, homepage-verified 2026-10-06)	Compounded, advertised 'first month low as $49'; ongoing recurring rate not published (funnel-gated), confirm at enrollment
Tirzepatide price	From $149/mo on the 12-month plan (billed $1,788 every 12 months); $199 per 4 weeks on the monthly plan; same price at any dose (compounded tirzepatide, homepage-verified 2026-10-06)	Compounded, injectable advertised 'first month low as $99'; oral 'first month low as $49'; microdosed 'first month low as $69'; ongoing recurring rate not published, confirm at enrollment
Key watchout	The $99 (semaglutide) and $149 (tirzepatide) figures are Sprout's 12-month plan rates, billed $1,188 and $1,788 every 12 months. The monthly plan is $149 (semaglutide) and $199 (tirzepatide) per 4 weeks, billed every 4 weeks, not per calendar month. Sprout states 'Same price at any dose.' Refund eligibility narrows once a provider has reviewed the intake (refund policy, read 2026-10-06).	telos publishes only 'first month low as' intro figures (semaglutide $49, tirzepatide $99, oral tirzepatide $49, microdosed tirzepatide $69); the ongoing monthly rate is not shown on the public site and is confirmed inside the intake flow, confirm the real recurring price at enrollment.

About compounded GLP-1 medicationsCompounded semaglutide and tirzepatide are not FDA-approved finished products. They are prepared by state-licensed 503A pharmacies or 503B outsourcing facilities and are not individually reviewed by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality. Compounders describe these preparations as using the same active ingredient as the approved medicines; the FDA has warned that some compounded products use salt forms, semaglutide sodium or semaglutide acetate, that it considers different active ingredients from the approved drug, and has issued warning letters over marketing that presents a compounded preparation as interchangeable with an approved one. The FDA declared the semaglutide shortage resolved on February 21, 2025 and the tirzepatide shortage resolved in December 2024, so the shortage-era pathway for broad compounding of these drugs has ended. Compounding now proceeds under the ordinary rules: a 503A pharmacy compounding for an individual patient on a prescription, or a 503B outsourcing facility, which compounds in bulk under CGMP and FDA registration rather than per patient. Those rules generally do not cover a product that is “essentially a copy” of an approved drug unless a prescriber documents a change that makes a significant difference for an individual patient. Talk to a clinician about contraindications including personal or family history of medullary thyroid carcinoma or MEN 2.
