How we research, write, and correct our guides
Practices make licensing and purchasing decisions from what they read here, so the standard for what gets published is deliberately narrow. This page explains it.
Direct Peptide Sales is a referral service for licensed practices and wellness businesses. We introduce you to licensed prescribers and 503A/503B pharmacies. We do not sell, prescribe, bill, or ship product.

Sourcing standard
Claims are grounded in a small set of source types, in this order of preference.
- Primary law: state statutes, board rules, and FDA guidance documents
- Board advisories, enforcement notices, and inspection findings
- Documentation supplied by partner pharmacies, such as Certificates of Analysis and licensure records
- Operational experience from onboarding practices, presented as practice, not as rule
What we will not publish
Some content is excluded regardless of demand.
- Dosing instructions aimed at patients or consumers
- Outcome guarantees, cure language, or disease-treatment claims not on an approved label
- Testimonials, ratings, or statistics we cannot verify
- Named pricing from partner sources, which changes and is set by them
- Research-use-only or gray-market sourcing guidance
Review and freshness
Each guide carries a review date in its page metadata and, where shown, on the page. State compliance pages are re-checked when a statute, board rule, or FDA action changes. Pages that no longer reflect current rules are updated or removed rather than left in place.
Corrections
Errors reported through the Get Started form are reviewed within a few business days. Substantive corrections are made in place and the review date is updated. We do not silently rewrite a page's core claims without changing that date.
Independence and compensation
Direct Peptide Sales earns business services fees from partner organizations. That relationship never buys placement in a guide, and no product or pricing claim is made on a partner's behalf. Guides that discuss how to vet a supplier apply the same checklist to our own partners.
Use of automation
Drafting tools are used to speed up research and first drafts. Every published page is reviewed by a person against the sourcing standard above before it goes live, and the review date reflects that human review, not the draft date.
Frequently asked questions
- Is the content on this site medical or legal advice?
- No. It is general business and regulatory information for licensed practices and wellness businesses. Clinical decisions belong to a licensed prescriber and regulatory questions belong to your counsel and state boards.
- How often are pages reviewed?
- Every guide shows a review date. Compliance and state pages are re-checked when a statute, board rule, or FDA action changes, and at least on a recurring schedule.
- How do I report an error?
- Send the page URL and the correction through the Get Started form and mark it as a content correction. Substantive corrections are made on the page and the review date is updated.
- Do partners pay for placement in your content?
- No. Partner sources are never named in guides in exchange for payment, and product or pricing claims are not made on their behalf.
- What exactly does Direct Peptide Sales do?
- We are a referral and introduction service. We verify your business and the states it serves, then introduce you to licensed telehealth prescribers and 503A or 503B pharmacies. You contract directly with them. We do not sell, price, prescribe, compound, bill, or ship any product.
- How fast can my practice be introduced to a source?
- Timing depends on your business details, states served, and partner fit. DPS does not guarantee an introduction or launch date. The independent partners determine their own onboarding requirements.
- What does it cost?
- Nothing to apply, and we do not charge practices a fee. Product pricing, account terms, and any minimums are set by the pharmacy or prescriber you contract with, not by us.
- Where do the peptides come from and are they verified?
- Ask the independent pharmacy to confirm current product status, applicable licenses, and preparation-specific quality documentation. DPS does not test or certify products. The COA library contains illustrative examples, not proof for a future lot.
- Who handles prescribing, billing, and shipping?
- The licensed prescriber and the pharmacy do. Prescribing is the provider's independent clinical decision, and dispensing, billing, and shipping sit with the pharmacy. We are not part of that transaction.
- What if I'm not a licensed clinic?
- Non-licensed wellness businesses such as coaches, gyms, studios, and nutrition practices can be introduced to a licensed telehealth prescriber who owns the clinical relationship. You never prescribe, hold, or dispense product.
- How do you vet the sources you introduce?
- Before contracting, independently verify the source legal identity, licenses for the relevant states, preparation-specific documentation, and written responsibilities. A facility license or COA does not establish that every proposed product may lawfully be prescribed or supplied.
- Which states do you serve?
- Coverage depends on the states your business serves and the independent partners' licenses. An introduction is not authorization to prescribe or ship into a state.
