What Drives Peptide Therapy Pricing? How the Costs Work

Most pricing pages give you a number. This one explains what actually drives that number — so you can tell a fair quote from an inflated one. Peptide therapy pricing is built from a few moving parts: how the medication is sourced, what the compounding pharmacy charges as pass-through, how complex the protocol is, and how insurance, HSA, and FSA do (and do not) apply. Understanding those drivers is more useful than a headline price. If you just want the current figures, see current pricing.

The 4 things that determine peptide therapy cost

1. Evaluation quality — A real medical evaluation by a board-certified physician costs more than a telehealth intake form, but it is also the most important step for safety and outcomes.

2. Peptide sourcing — Peptides sourced from licensed US 503A/503B compounding pharmacies with third-party testing cost more than gray-market imports. The difference is real and matters.

3. Protocol complexity — A single-peptide protocol costs less than a multi-peptide, multi-therapy protocol that includes NAD+, hormone optimization, or IV therapy.

4. Supervision — Ongoing physician supervision (not a subscription auto-shipped to your door) is included in physician-led care.

What a physician-led Las Vegas peptide clinic charges

At LiveNow Longevity, the initial medical evaluation is $88 and is applied to your protocol if you continue care. This is the most accurate way to find out what your peptide therapy will actually involve, because every plan is built around your medical findings — not a preset menu.

After evaluation, ongoing care is billed as a physician-management membership; your exact rate depends on your individualized protocol and is reviewed with you in person at the evaluation — see how our pricing works. What we do not publish is a flat per-protocol price menu, because we do not sell pre-built protocols: medications and peptides are billed separately at pass-through cost from the licensed compounding pharmacy, and the right protocol depends on your labs and history. Our Las Vegas peptide clinic page has the clinic location, hours, and a $88 evaluation booking link.

Cost vs value: what to watch for

The cheapest peptide therapy is rarely the best. Online stores that ship peptides without a medical evaluation are not peptide therapy — they are peptide sales. The cost of a single complication from a poorly chosen protocol is far higher than the cost of a physician evaluation.

At our Henderson peptide clinic and our Las Vegas peptide clinic, every protocol is designed, prescribed, and monitored by Dr. Charles Kamen, MD — a board-certified neurologist. The cost reflects the medical quality, the sourcing, and the supervision.

Insurance, HSA, and payment options

LiveNow Longevity does not bill insurance directly for peptide or longevity services. The $88 medical evaluation and protocol costs are out of pocket. Many patients use HSA or FSA accounts, and superbills can be provided on request. See our Payments & Billing page for details.
