## Ask which medicine is being offered.

“Peptide therapy” is a broad label, rather than the name of a single treatment.

Approved medicine

Semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy) has FDA-approved products as of September 26, 2026.

Custom-made medicine

With compounding, a pharmacy or doctor makes a medicine to suit a particular need.

As of September 26, 2026, FDA approval does not extend to compounded medicines.

The FDA has not checked its quality, safety or ability to help before it reaches patients.

Product labelled “for research”

As of September 26, 2026, FDA advises against products labelled “for research” that are sold for people to use as treatment.

If an offer says “for research,” ask: “Is this meant for testing, or are you offering it as my medicine?”

Word to know

FDA

FDA stands for Food and Drug Administration. It is the US agency for medicine review.

## For an Orlando search, check Florida.

Ask who would assess you and which pharmacy would fill the prescription. “Clinician” means a health professional who looks at your care needs.

As of September 28, 2026, Florida offers a free public search for a clinician’s licence, profile and posted discipline.

Word to know

Prescription

A health professional’s order for a medicine.

Word to know

Posted discipline

Public action a licensing board has taken about a health professional’s licence.

## Bring the name you saw.

Write down the exact medicine name from an ad or message. Bring it to a care visit. Ask what it is meant to treat. Then ask what supports that use.

You do not need to learn every treatment name. Begin with the one being proposed to you.
