Can I get this peptide?': the loophole making way for the US's 'wild west' of untested drugs

A panel inside the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has recommended, by narrow margins, that six of seven widely hyped peptides be made legally available to consumers—not just for “lab use.” The move follows earlier concerns that many of these injectable drugs have been sold through a gray-market channel. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. helped spotlight the issue in February on Joe Rogan’s podcast, where Rogan described peptides like BPC-157 and TB-500 as the “Wolverine stack.” The article notes the FDA had previously said the products were unproven and potentially dangerous, and had halted production for more research.
