What this video covers
told us it was happening, and finally on April 15th, 2026, the FDA got the entire peptide community buzzing. And I feel a responsibility to tell you what’s happened here because what people are saying what happened and what actually happened are a little different. Well, the FDA just removed 11 peptides and 12 compounds overall from the category 2 or do not compound list, which since 2023 has been the regulatory equivalent of a ban on compounding these substances in pharmacies.

- Well, the FDA just removed 11 peptides and 12 compounds overall from the category 2 or do not compound list, which since 2023 has been the regulatory equivalent of a ban on compounding these substances in pharmacies.
- Basically, they said, “Stop making peptides.” And since then, you’ve been able to get Sermorelin PT-141 oxytocin and topical GHK copper from compounding pharmacies, and that might be it.
- So, if you wanted any of the other popular peptides like BPC-157, TB-500, and MOTS-c, well, your doctor and your pharmacy were no longer allowed to get them to you.
- put it, this move, putting so many peptides on the do not compound list, forced peptides into the black market.
- Well, now, and this is important, just because these 12 compounds were moved off of the do not compound list, well, pharmacies legally cannot start compounding these today based on this alone.
- In the regulatory world, if the FDA approves BPC-157 for ulcerative colitis, it becomes legal for a pharmacy to make it.
