Peptides are short chains of amino acids. Your body makes thousands of them and uses them to carry instructions between cells. Some can be prescribed as medicines. Which ones, for whom, and whether any of it is right for you is a clinical decision, made at your consultation.
Two reasons. First, the law: South African rules on describing prescription medicines to the public are strict, stricter still for anything a pharmacy compounds for one named patient. Second, the honest one: what a treatment does for you depends on your history, exam and results - easy to get wrong from a web page, which is exactly why we don't try.
Our doctors prescribe from a defined set of compounded peptide medicines, prepared by a licensed South African pharmacy against an individual prescription. Your doctor will discuss the specific options available to you during your consultation.
Everything we prescribe is a prescription medicine, prepared for you personally by a licensed South African pharmacy against a prescription from a doctor registered with the HPCSA. These are compounded medicines rather than mass-produced ones - not registered products in the way a medicine on a pharmacy shelf is registered, and your doctor will explain exactly what that means for you.
A lot of people do. It is cheaper and nobody asks any questions. The difference is that here a doctor decides whether you should be on anything at all, chooses the dose for you, and checks how you are doing.
