This content is provided for educational and informational purposes only and does not constitute legal, medical, or prescribing advice. Attendance at or receipt of this content does not create a provider-patient or attorney-client relationship. Compounded medications are not reviewed or verified by the FDA for safety, effectiveness, or quality and are not FDA-approved. Instead, compounded drugs may be prepared in certain circumstances, for example, when patients cannot be treated with an FDA-approved medication. In situations like this, compounding can serve important patient needs. A licensed healthcare provider will evaluate if treatment involving a compounded medication is necessary or appropriate for a given patient. 503A pharmacies are required to comply with applicable federal and state laws, rules, regulations, and guidance. The peptides discussed in this material are not currently eligible for 503A compounding pending final FDA rulemaking, and usage figures referenced above were shared by the guest speaker during Southend’s educational webinar; Southend has not independently verified them and they are not a representation of safety or efficacy.
