The first step is to undergo a thorough medical evaluation such as we offer at Optimal Wellness MD. Once we have identified areas in which you may benefit from one or more peptides, then they can be prescribed, if commercially available and FDA approved, from accredited pharmacies. It is important to only use peptides under the supervision of a trained physician. Just like any medication, it is important to use the correct peptide at the correct dosage and delivery route to get the best results and avoid any unwanted side effects.
Although you may be able to purchase various peptides online, peptides for human uses are only distributed by specialized pharmacies that can test peptides to be sure they are genuine, free from dangerous impurities, and ensure sterility. Peptides should only be obtained from a PCAB-certified 503A or 503B pharmacy with a doctor’s prescription.
