DudeMeds editorial. Educational information, not individual medical advice.
Ask which substance is being discussed.
Peptides is a category, not a single treatment. Ask for the specific medication and the evidence supporting the proposed use.
Understand approval status.
Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. FDA does not review their safety, effectiveness, or quality before they are marketed. Compounded and FDA-approved generic drugs are not interchangeable terms.
Get an individual evaluation.
Availability, product status, and clinical appropriateness must be reviewed for the specific product and patient. The storefront does not list products that are not available in the catalog.
