Updated September 2026Ten weeks, not three monthsLive Vital review
Both plans are ten-week protocols, and the page's own framing calls one of them a three-month program.
The verdict
Live Vital sells semaglutide as a ten-week protocol at $299 and tirzepatide at $549, read August 2026. Ten weeks is 2.3 calendar months, which makes the real figures about $130 and $239 a month rather than the thirds those totals suggest.

Live Vital sells both molecules by injection as fixed protocols rather than subscriptions, across fifty states, with the whole cost stated up front and the duration stated in weeks.
Who writes the prescription, and what do they see?
A prescription precedes dispensing and the clinician is not described, which matters more on a fixed protocol than on a subscription: a buyer commits to the full term at the outset rather than to a month they can leave.
The protocol framing is honest in one respect and misleading in another. Publishing a total and a duration is better than publishing a monthly figure with no term behind it. Describing ten weeks as a three-month program is the part that costs a reader money, because it makes a $299 total look like a $100 month.
What happens when the dose goes up?
Nothing is published about what happens at a higher dose, and a fixed ten-week protocol raises the question sharply. Most people are still escalating at week ten, so a reader needs to know what the next protocol costs before the first one ends. The pages do not say.
What the price includes
A year holds 5.2 ten-week periods rather than four, so $299 is about $130 a calendar month and not the $99 that dividing by three would give. Tirzepatide is worse: the page prints $183 a month against a $549 total, and ten weeks makes the real figure about $239 — a thirty per cent understatement on the seller's own arithmetic.
What it claims, and what it cites
Both lines are compounded rather than manufactured, prepared by a pharmacy the site does not name, and not reviewed by the FDA before dispensing as an approved product is.
Where it holds up, and where it does not
- Strength: The protocol total is published up front
- Strength: The duration is stated in weeks
- Strength: Coverage across all fifty states
- Limitation: Ten weeks is framed as three months
- Limitation: The tirzepatide monthly figure is 30% low
- Limitation: Nothing published about the next protocol
- Limitation: No compounding pharmacy is named
What the evidence says about this kind of treatment
The assessment above is about Live Vital. These are about the drugs it sells, and they are traced to the primary literature.
- Right for
- A reader who works from the protocol total rather than the monthly figure beside it.
- Wrong for
- A reader taking the page's own per-month arithmetic at face value.

Check Synergy Rx availability →Frequently asked
- Is $183 the monthly tirzepatide price?
- No. The protocol is ten weeks at $549 in total, and ten weeks is 2.3 calendar months, so the real figure is about $239 a month.
- Why does a ten-week protocol not equal three months?
- Because a year holds 5.2 ten-week periods rather than four. Dividing a ten-week total by three understates the monthly cost by about thirty per cent.
- What happens after ten weeks?
- Nothing is published about the cost of a following protocol, which matters because most people are still escalating at week ten.
- Is Live Vital legit?
- Live Vital is a GLP-1 telehealth sellers service. Its stated availability: All 50 states. What our record does not establish: whether it bills insurance and how its intake works. Ask for those in writing before you pay.
- Is Live Vital expensive compared with other GLP-1 telehealth sellers?
- Live Vital publishes a starting figure of $130/mo. Across the 137 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review that publish a single monthly figure, those run $76 to $369 with a median of $184, which puts Live Vital below the median, toward the cheaper end. The other 11 GLP-1 telehealth sellers we review quote only after an intake or price by dose, so they are not in that comparison. A starting figure is not a bill — labs, consultations and shipping are often charged separately, so confirm what your own quote includes.
