This will make a lot of people happy that are just too uncomfortable using the grey market.

I know JFK jr cannot say anything differently in his position, but the absurdity of saying there is no way to tell what you are getting on the grey market was pharma propaganda...but really, he cannot say anything else.

But he ( RFKjr ) is right, you know. You DON'T know what you're getting...unless you have it tested or it's independently tested...and you KNOW he's not gonna open THAT can of woims. He isn't going to say squat about testing.

We all know of someone who did not get what they had ordered... by having the pep tested. Either they got a totally different, non-existent or under or over-filled peptide has been reported NUMEROUS times.

Agree, he isn't going to say anything about there being a way to verify.

I've had stuff I have ordered from China with Janoshik reports that had different vial cap color and crimping...so even if it is posted, it still needs to be checked...but yeah, he isn't going down that rabbit hole.

most vendors say fill can and guarantee to be min of only 90% of stated. As for over fills I'm fine with it. Free peps, as long I know the over fill. Which isn't a problem if you test

 

[Chili777]

He says a lot of things. I'll believe it when I see it, like when Customs stops taking packages at the border. If he says, OK, but US vendors only, forget it. I'm not buying single vials.

I would not be spending scads of money, or any money w/a compounding pharmacy for peps...I am pepping a lot of horses, that would not even be remotely affordable.

 

[randompersonrandom]

I started grey because I didn't want to live with the anxiety of compounded being taken away.

Now I'm staying with grey because yes please, I would like to slowly load my freezer with 20 years worth of no-fat-come-back for a couple of grand over the course of the next year or two, thanks much.

Serious question: How do you know the over fill?

 

[CNCCurrency]

Serious question: How do you know the over fill?

You can send one of your vials to testing labs which can be expensive, there are testing groups that pool the funds. Vendors coa is a good starting point and then there is finnricks analytical which is free.

Gotta love it. At least he is openminded and sees the big picture

 

[AlexSilver]

Just noticed, that list has LL-37 as one that will be approved: "safety list include:• BPC-157• Cathelicidin LL-37 •"

And as one least likely to be approved: "The five least likely to be legalized in a policy shift would be those with the most troubling safety signals or the weakest human data — for example: Melanotan II, Cathelicidin LL-37 ,"

I’m glad that at least this is on the table for discussion and hopefully some action.

wouldnt it still be way more expensive than the grey market?

 

[Raptorrunner]

You can bet your bottom dollar. But not as absurdly expensive as it will be if some of them get an FDA approval and big pharma can start cranking them out.

 

[New2ton]

More than likely, yes

 

[Chili777]

Forzinity, which is a essentially SS-31 and was granted FDA approval for Barth Syndrome, a rare disease, is $61,000 a month, last I saw. But they do have a coupon! We all ought to hope and pray that BP continues to think they are not worth the effort.

 

[Loveandpeaceandjoy]

Yes compound will sell single vials

Would the grey market still exist for things such as reta when it gets FDA approved?

 

[ltjltj]

Of course, it exists for Tirz and Sema.
