Is sermorelin legal?

By Dr. Paul C. Holmwood, MD. Published . 1 min read.

Yes, with a prescription. Sermorelin is legal in the United States when a licensed provider prescribes it and a licensed compounding pharmacy prepares it. It is not a controlled substance, but it is prescription-only, and buying it from research-chemical sites or overseas sellers for personal use falls outside the system that protects patients.

What this means for you

Compounding rules for peptides have tightened in recent years, and they vary by state, so whether a particular pharmacy can prepare and ship sermorelin to you depends on its licensing where you live. The way to verify a source is simple: a provider licensed in your state wrote the prescription, the pharmacy is licensed to dispense in your state and the vial carries a pharmacy label with your name and a stated concentration.

How it works at Biotech Lifestyle

We prescribe sermorelin only after a provider evaluation and only in states where our providers and pharmacies are licensed. If we cannot legally serve your state, we tell you rather than ship anyway.

  • What are NAD+ injections used for? NAD+ injections deliver nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, a coenzyme involved in cellular energy metabolism and DNA repair, as a prescription medication injected under the skin.
  • Is NAD+ the same as NMN? No. NAD+, nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, is the coenzyme itself. NMN, nicotinamide mononucleotide, and NR, nicotinamide riboside, are precursors the body can convert into NAD+. Injectable NAD+ delivers the molecule directly by prescription, while NMN and NR are oral supplements.
  • Is NAD+ FDA approved? No. NAD+ is not an FDA-approved drug for any use. Injectable NAD+ is prepared by compounding pharmacies under a prescription, and oral forms such as NMN and NR are regulated as dietary supplements, which the FDA does not approve before they are sold.
