Help Patients Navigate the Peptide Craze

Peptides are being touted for everything from antiaging to improving immune function to muscle growth and weight loss.

You’re already familiar with several approved peptide drugs, such as insulin, GLP-1s (liraglutide, etc), and teriparatide (Forteo, etc).

Now there’s growing interest in UNapproved peptides, such as BPC-157 or TB-500 for injury recovery and muscle growth...melanotan for sunless tanning...or MOTS-c to improve metabolism. Most of these are advertised and available from the “gray market” online, at wellness clinics, etc.
