What to watch for with Luvo Health and Sprout Health

Luvo Health

  • The 50% starter discount lasts four weeks; the next delivery costs the full listed rate
  • Four-week billing means 13 billing cycles in 52 weeks, not 12 calendar-month payments. Longer prepaid plans have separate terms
Luvo Health's strengths, cautions and terms

Strengths

  • Publishes separate first-cycle and renewal prices for three compounded GLP-1 plans, with clinician review, support and shipping included
  • Three compounded formats including oral semaglutide tablets, plus a dedicated microdosing line with its own products
  • Published cancellation and refund terms explain the notice period and limits on prepaid-plan refunds
  • Names its four compounding pharmacies in the terms, with street addresses and phone numbers, and displays a LegitScript approval seal in the site footer
  • Its terms describe prescription-transfer rights; ask which licensed pharmacy can fill the exact prescription and how a transfer affects the plan

More to watch for

  • The compounded-plan prices do not establish the cost of brand-name Ozempic or Zepbound; obtain a separate quote for those options
  • No medical director and no individual prescribing clinician is named; the terms name OpenLoop Healthcare Partners as a clinical partner, but not the clinician who would review your file
  • The terms name four compounding pharmacies and describe default assignment and transfer rights. Confirm the assigned pharmacy before payment; a transfer right does not guarantee that every pharmacy can dispense the prescribed formulation
  • Luvo Health, Inc. is named in the terms, but no street address or phone number is shown on the site's contact, about, terms or FAQ pages (rendered check 2026-09-03), and support is email only
  • Refunds close earlier than cancel any time suggests: cancellation needs 72 hours notice before the billing date, and once the prescription reaches the pharmacy no refund is available, which for a new patient with no video visit is the moment the intake is submitted

  • Compounded semaglutide (injectable)

Clinical services are non-refundable once rendered.

Sprout Health

  • The $99/mo semaglutide rate requires $1,188 upfront for 12 months; the shorter $149 plan bills every 4 weeks, not once per calendar month

States
