The Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has announced that certain wellness peptides will soon be available through prescription. The department stated it will temporarily allow compounding pharmacies to provide six of these peptides under a prescription basis.

This decision marks a shift in accessibility for these compounds, which are often sought for wellness and performance-related purposes. The move aims to regulate their availability while acknowledging their use.

Further details regarding the specific peptides included in this temporary measure and the criteria for prescription are expected to be released by HHS.
