Safety & compliance
How protocols are screened, where the product comes from, what gets monitored, and the risks we disclose before anything is prescribed.
Screening, sourcing, and monitoring
Most of the risk in peptide therapy comes from three places: patients self-sourcing unregulated product, protocols run without baseline labs, and the absence of anyone checking whether it’s still working. The structure below exists to close all three.
Before anything is prescribed
Baseline labs, full medication and supplement reconciliation, personal and family history. Active malignancy, pregnancy or intent to conceive, uncontrolled endocrine disease, and specific drug interactions are contraindications — some absolute, some relative.
Where the product comes from
Prescribed peptides are dispensed through licensed compounding pharmacies. CPM is not a manufacturer, not a research chemical supplier, and not a pharmacy. We do not sell, ship, or hold inventory for sale.
Technique and storage
Patients receive hands-on instruction in reconstitution, injection technique, sharps handling, and refrigeration. Getting this wrong is a far more common source of problems than the compound itself.
Defined review points
Every protocol has a scheduled review with repeat labs and symptom assessment. Outcomes are measured against your baseline, and protocols are adjusted, cycled off, or discontinued accordingly.
Known risks
- Injection site reactions — redness, swelling, or irritation; usually mild and self-limiting.
- Growth hormone axis effects — water retention, joint discomfort, carpal tunnel symptoms, or changes in insulin sensitivity with GH secretagogues and GHRH analogs.
- Melanocortin effects — nausea, flushing, and pigmentation changes with PT-141 and MT-2. New or changing moles require dermatological evaluation.
- Unknown long-term profile — for Tier 3 compounds, long-term human safety data is genuinely limited. That uncertainty is part of the informed consent conversation.
A note on self-sourcing
Research-use-only peptides are widely sold online without prescription, frequently at lower prices than a supervised protocol. Those products are not manufactured for human use, are not subject to pharmaceutical quality control, and are labelled explicitly as not for human consumption. Purity, dosing accuracy, and sterility are unverified.
If you are already running a self-sourced protocol, tell your physician. You will not be lectured. We would far rather know what you’re taking and monitor it properly than have it sitting outside the record.
Regulatory position
Coast Performance Medicine is a licensed medical practice. Several compounds in our library are not FDA-approved for the indications discussed and are prescribed off-label at physician discretion. Off-label prescribing is legal and routine across medicine, but it carries an obligation to disclose — which is what this page is for.
