Editorial Policy & Medical Review
This site publishes information about peptide therapy, including dosing and administration. That is health content people act on, so here is exactly how it gets made, who checks it, and what it is not.
Sourced from primary literature
Peptide profiles summarize published preclinical and clinical research. Every profile links directly to the current indexed literature on PubMed, ClinicalTrials.gov, and PubChem so any claim can be traced to its source. We do not cite studies we have not read.
Clinical review: not yet signed off
Our clinical pages are written by the editorial team from published literature and current FDA guidance, and every PubMed citation is checked against PubMed when the site is built. No named clinician has yet signed off on the current text of our compound profiles, protocols, or education modules. When one does, each page will name them. Until then, treat clinical detail as an editorial summary and confirm it with your own clinician.
Dated, and honestly dated
Every clinical page carries a visible last-reviewed date. That date changes when a human actually re-checks the content against current sources, never automatically on deploy. A freshness signal that tracks deploys is not a freshness signal.
Regulatory status stated plainly
Most peptides discussed on this site are not FDA-approved for the uses described. Each profile states its regulatory status: FDA Approved, In Clinical Trials, Investigational, or Research Phase, and does not imply approval it does not have.
Corrections are made in the open
If we get something wrong, we fix the page and update its review date. Material corrections to clinical content are noted on the page. Email hello@peptideassociation.org to flag an error.
Educational, not prescriptive
Nothing here is medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment, and none of it replaces consultation with a licensed provider who knows your history. We do not prescribe, compound, or dispense.
Who writes and reviews this content
Written by
Peptide Association Editorial Team
Research & Editorial, researches and drafts peptide profiles, protocol summaries, and education modules from published literature and current FDA guidance.
Medically reviewed by
No one yet. Our medical director, Ian Justl Ellis, MD, CPT, has not signed off on the current text of our clinical pages, and we will not put a reviewer's name on a page until someone has. Until then, treat clinical detail as an editorial summary of published literature and confirm it with your own clinician.
Funding and independence
Peptide Association earns revenue from memberships, provider network participation, and referrals into our clinician and fulfillment network. Providers and pharmacies pay to be listed and to receive referrals. That relationship never determines what a peptide profile says about the evidence, the risks, or a compound's regulatory status, but you should know it exists when reading our provider recommendations. We do not accept payment to alter clinical content.
