KNOW YOUR MEDICATION SOURCE
Not all injectable medications / peptides are created, tested, or regulated the same way. When choosing a compounded medication, the source matters.
LICENSED COMPOUNDING PHARMACY
🏥 Operates under applicable pharmacy regulations / FDA inspections
👩⚕️ Medication is prescribed for patient care
🧪 Subject to applicable compounding standards
🔬 Appropriate quality-control requirements apply based on the type of compounder
📋 Identifiable pharmacy and licensed professionals
💊 Medication is provided through a legitimate prescription pathway
UNLICENSED / RESEARCH SOURCES
⚠️ May operate outside pharmacy regulation
🚫 Often marketed as “Research Use Only” or “Not for Human Consumption”
❓ Quality and manufacturing standards may be unknown
❓ Testing, potency and sterility may be difficult to verify
❓ Source and responsible entity may be unclear
⚠️ Products may not be intended or authorized for human use
WHY IT MATTERS
Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, meaning FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness, and quality before they reach patients. However, lawful compounding through appropriately licensed pharmacies and FDA-registered outsourcing facilities is subject to regulatory requirements and oversight.
Purchasing injectable products from unlicensed or unknown online sources can create additional concerns regarding identity, potency, sterility, contamination, and appropriate storage. FDA specifically advises consumers to research online pharmacies and avoid purchasing prescription medicines from unregulated, unlicensed sources.
