Trust the tracker

Built to answer the two questions most visitors actually have.

Can a pharmacy defend compounding this peptide today, and is there any credible sign that the answer could change soon?

How to read the statuses

Restricted

Currently blocked from routine compounding because the FDA has categorized it as difficult to justify for 503A/503B use.

Under Review

Removed from Category 2 but still awaiting formal FDA compounding guidance after referral to PCAC.

Legal

Currently available through approved or generally compounded pathways.

Where movement is

4 peptides are currently in the clearer review lane, while 17 more still carry a live “watch this” signal in the tracker.
