Head-to-head dispatch
Livv vs Mint Med
Two GLP-1 providers, one scorecard. Both are graded on the same six Desk Score dimensions — here is how they stack up, and which one fits you.
Desk Score
Livv is a longevity-first telehealth storefront selling compounded semaglutide from $159/month and compounded tirzepatide from $239/month month-to-month, flat at every dose, with consultation, shipping and unlimited messaging included.
$159/mo month-to-month (compounded); $145/mo on the 3-month plan, $135/mo on the 6-month plan sema · $239/mo month-to-month (compounded); $219/mo on the 3-month plan, $199/mo on the 6-month plan tirz · Verified August 29, 2026
Marked down on: The category page advertises "Starting at $135/month" and "Starting at $199/month" without saying those are the six-month rungs; month-to-month is $159 and $239
Desk Score
Mint Med is a national, no-membership compounded-GLP-1 telehealth platform offering semaglutide and tirzepatide on a flat "all doses" price — avoiding the per-tier escalation common as patients titrate up.
$159/mo sema · $159/mo tirz · Verified July 25, 2026
Marked down on: Easily confused with Mint Medical Clinic (a separate Utah-only med spa)
