Price transparency
What is disclosed before intake, not a clinical rating.
Live Vital offers compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide injections with clinician review, portal check-ins and messaging. Its advertised packages cost $299 and $549 for ten-week protocols; the $99 and $183 monthly headlines do not describe standalone monthly purchases. The public pages leave important dispensing and pre-approval payment questions unresolved, making a written prescription and billing summary essential before paying.
Live Vital does not pay us. We review it so you can compare it with the programs that do. Disclosure
Live Vital publishes its price before the medical intake — you can see what it costs without handing over your health history first.

The verdict
Live Vital shows its price before the medical intake, but leaves gaps, such as what the advertised price includes or which pharmacy fills the prescription. It ranks 122 of 293 on price transparency.
The score beside Live Vital's name rates how much it tells you before the medical intake — the price, the pharmacy and the terms — not how cheap it is.

What do you get with Live Vital?
- A medical-history intake reviewed by a licensed clinician, with treatment prescribed only when the clinician determines it is appropriate.
- Compounded semaglutide or tirzepatide as once-weekly injections, prepared for an individual prescription rather than supplied as FDA-approved branded products.
- Clinician-guided dose changes, treatment check-ins and unlimited care-team messaging through the patient portal.
- Prescription fulfillment by a U.S. pharmacy when approved, with the specific dispenser and its handling instructions to confirm for your order.
- A free fifteen-minute phone consultation described in the refund policy, allowing questions before choosing treatment without guaranteeing a prescription.
How does Live Vital work?
Confirm your location and clinician
Live Vital’s current states page lists all 50 states for general care, with separate restrictions for other clinical programs. Confirm the state where you will physically attend the consultation. The practice page identifies Dr. Patrick Taylor as medical director, while the full clinical-team and professional-entity details need clarification.
Review the package and payment sequence
Ask when the card is charged relative to medical review and what happens if no prescription is issued. The public refund page does not settle that sequence. Confirm the amount due for the ten-week protocol and whether later treatment renews in the same supply period.
Complete intake and medical review
Provide medical history, medicines, goals and any previous treatment information. The provider sets the dose and progression rather than promising a universal schedule. Completing an intake is not approval, and a brief preliminary phone conversation is not the full treatment decision.
Check the dispensing instructions and renewals
Obtain the pharmacy name, formulation, concentration, quantity and expected usable supply. Use the portal for questions or changes before the next order. Review the next billing date and cancellation instructions, particularly because a ten-week purchase does not align neatly with a calendar-month headline.
How much does Live Vital cost?
Semaglutide: $299 for ten weeks, advertised as $99 per month; ongoing month-to-month total not established.
Tirzepatide: $549 for ten weeks, advertised as $183 per month; ongoing month-to-month total not established.
Company advertises general telehealth availability in all 50 states; confirm current GLP-1 prescribing and pharmacy access for your location.
The semaglutide product page advertises a ten-week protocol totaling $299, with a $99 monthly headline. Tirzepatide is a ten-week protocol totaling $549, with a $183 monthly headline. Ten weeks is not three calendar months, and neither description establishes a separately billed one-month order or a complete ongoing renewal quote. Live Vital describes the practice as cash-pay and does not bill insurance directly.
- Compare the actual $299 or $549 purchase and prescribed supply rather than treating the displayed monthly equivalent as a cancellable monthly price. Ask for the next package amount, dose and billing period before deciding on affordability.
- The treatment pages include clinician review, monitoring and messaging, while the terms mention consultations, laboratory coordination and prescription services more broadly. Ask whether your particular package includes shipping, supplies and any required testing or whether those add charges.
- The refund policy says the fifteen-minute phone consult is free. The terms separately discuss discretionary consultation refunds, so confirm whether any later paid clinical evaluation is part of the medication package or a distinct service.
- The public practice page does not identify a dispensing pharmacy, and the refund page leaves the payment-before-review and declined-prescription outcome unresolved. Obtain those details before providing payment rather than assuming a full refund is automatic.
- Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period according to the terms and refund policy. Medication and laboratory work are generally nonrefundable once ordered or dispensed, with pharmacy preparation and shipment also limiting medication refunds.
- HSA/FSA use is described as possible for eligible costs, while the terms offer superbills for potential insurance reimbursement. Neither determines whether your own administrator will reimburse treatment; ask for documentation and an exact itemized charge.

What are Live Vital's pros and cons?
Pros
- The product pages state the ten-week purchase totals
- The compounded formulations are explicitly distinguished from FDA-approved branded products
- Clinical check-ins and care-team messaging are described
- A current states page lists the general service footprint
Cons
- Monthly headlines and ten-week supplies use different time periods
- The recurring package and renewal amounts are not fully established
- The specific dispensing pharmacy is not identified publicly
- The payment and refund outcome after a declined prescription needs clarification
The pharmacy behind the medicine
It does not name its pharmacy. Live Vital does not publicly disclose which compounding pharmacy fills its prescriptions. That is common and it is not an accusation — but it does mean the one thing you would most want to verify about a compounded medicine is the one thing you cannot.
A compounded drug is mixed to order by a pharmacy rather than manufactured and released as a finished product, so the FDA has not reviewed the specific preparation you are prescribed for safety, effectiveness or quality. That is true of every compounded program, including the highest-scoring ones.
What else do people ask about Live Vital?
Is Live Vital semaglutide $99 billed monthly?
The product page gives a $99 monthly headline but identifies the purchase as a ten-week protocol totaling $299. It does not establish a standalone $99 month-to-month order. Ask for the actual amount due now, prescribed supply, next billing date and price of continuing treatment.
What is the tirzepatide package price?
The current page lists $549 for a ten-week protocol with a $183 monthly headline. That is a multiweek treatment purchase, not proof of a separate monthly bill. The clinician determines the dose, so confirm the quantity supplied and the refill quote for your actual plan.
Who provides the medical care?
The practice identifies Live Vital, LLC and lists Dr. Patrick Taylor as medical director. Licensed clinicians review medical history and decide prescribing. Some public professional-entity, team and pharmacy details remain incomplete, so ask for the clinician and professional practice assigned to your treatment before enrolling.
Which states are served?
The current availability page lists all 50 states for general care and says patients must be physically located where clinicians are licensed. It gives a separate restricted list for testosterone programs. Confirm the weight-management treatment and location during intake rather than applying another program’s restrictions to every service.
What happens if the clinician declines a prescription?
The public refund page does not clearly settle when payment is collected or the refund treatment when no prescription is issued. Ask for that answer before paying. A free preliminary consultation and a guaranteed refund of a later medication-package charge are different promises.
How do cancellation and refunds work?
The policy says cancellation is effective at the end of the current billing period. Medication and labs are generally nonrefundable once ordered or dispensed, with compounded or shipped medication usually excluded. Request cancellation before the next charge and obtain the outcome for any existing order in writing.
