Ivy Rx or MaxLife?
MaxLife is the cheaper way to start, at $155 a month against $177 for Ivy Rx; MaxLife does not publish what its top dose costs, so ask before you commit past the first month. Judged by the headline prices you would pick Ivy Rx, advertised at $77 against MaxLife's $89, and that is the wrong way round once each bill is restated as a calendar month. They name the same 50 states, so where you live does not decide between them. MaxLife received an FDA warning letter in February 2026; Ivy Rx has none on record.
