Which fits your priorities?
Only the points where these two differ, from the table above and each provider’s record.

Choose Live Vital if…
- Lists compounded semaglutide and compounded tirzepatide, which MangoRx doesn't price
- Publishes its full state list (50 states)
- Physician-led — founded by Dr. Patrick Taylor, MD; all treatments doctor-prescribed via the clinical team
What to weigh up
- The advertised '/mo' rate divides a 10-week protocol by three, so a calendar month really costs about $130 or $239
- Doesn't accept insurance (HSA/FSA funds only)
Choose MangoRx if…
- Lists oral compounded semaglutide, which Live Vital doesn't price
- Men's-health telehealth that bundles GLP-1, TRT, ED, and hair care under one provider
What to weigh up
- No published state list; confirm yours at signup
- GLP-1 formulary, pricing tiers, states served, and pharmacy partners not yet confirmed
