Frequently asked questions
What are peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as signaling molecules in the body. Different peptides have different effects, and some are FDA-approved medications.
Are all peptides FDA approved?
No. Some peptides are FDA-approved medications, while others aren't approved for the uses people seek them for, and the FDA has restricted how some can be made. Your provider will only recommend options that are appropriate and legally available.
How are peptides taken?
Most are small injections under the skin that you can do at home. Your provider will show you how.
How long before I notice a difference?
It depends on the peptide and your goals. Your provider will explain what to expect and when to check in.
Is peptide therapy right for me?
That depends on your health history, current medications and goals. A consultation, and sometimes lab work, comes first.
