| Plan term | Ivim Health | LifeMD | Cheaper |

| Month to month | $278 | $597 | Ivim Health by $319 |
| Settled dose | Ivim Health | LifeMD | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|

Ivim Health publishes no rate for 3-month term, 6-month term, 12-month term; LifeMD publishes none for 3-month term, 6-month term, 12-month term. An unpublished term is not necessarily unavailable — it is unpriced in public, which you can only resolve by asking.
A titration year is not twelve months at the maintenance price. Stepping up roughly four weeks per dose before settling at 10 mg/week, the first twelve months work out to $3,266 on Ivim Health and $7,164 on LifeMD — $3,898 apart, and a different gap from the $3,828 you would get by multiplying the monthly difference by twelve. The ramp is cheaper than the settled rate on whichever program prices by dose, which is why a first-year quote and a steady-state quote are not the same number.
That calculation is partial: Ivim Health publishes no price at 2 of the 6 doses, so the maintenance rate stands in for the missing steps rather than a number the company has stated.
Value Scores are 44.5 for Ivim Health and 37.5 for LifeMD, against a tirzepatide category floor of $126. Ivim Health leads by 7.0 points, driven mostly by price.

Where the two programs differ
All-in monthly
Ivim Health is cheaper month to month — $278 against $597, a gap of $319 every month, or $3,828 across a year if both rates hold.
Dose policy
LifeMD charges one price at every dose; Ivim Health prices by dose. That difference usually matters more than the headline gap, because the tiered program's advertised figure describes the dose you start on, not the dose you settle at.
Membership fee
Ivim Health charges a membership of $75 a month on top of the medication. That is already folded into the all-in figures above — it is broken out here because a membership is a recurring charge that continues even in a month you skip a shipment.
Twelve-month cost
Over twelve months the totals are $3,336 for Ivim Health and $7,164 for LifeMD. Ivim Health is lower by $3,828 — a figure worth checking against the cancellation terms below, because a prepaid year is only cheaper if you stay on it.
Cancellation terms
Both state the same cancellation terms: Cancel anytime.
Commitment
Commitment terms read the same on both: Month-to-month.
Evidence status
Both figures carry the same evidence status, provider-stated: taken from the provider's own published pages; checkout capture pending. Neither is stronger than the other on provenance.
Shipping
Shipping is handled the same way by both — included in the quoted price.
What each record says
Ivim Health Official site
Ivim combines a $75/month membership with tiered medication pricing; its all-in semaglutide figure ($149) is competitive, while tirzepatide lands mid-pack at $278 all-in at the 10 mg basis.
It does not publicly name its compounding pharmacy; the record shows Partner pharmacies, so who actually makes the medication cannot be independently verified; commitment terms are Month-to-month; cancellation is Cancel anytime; availability is stated as ~50 states.

Watch: Dose-tiered tirzepatide means the advertised start price understates maintenance cost; compare on the maintenance column.
LifeMD Official site
LifeMD attaches a $149/month program fee to medication pricing; its compounded tirzepatide all-in figure ($597) is the highest in our index, though its insurance-navigation pathway for brand products is a genuine strength.
