telehealth prescriber asked me three questions and approved me. that is not care.

Discussion Well Actually ×5

Right, the compounding question again, but with numbers this time.

I have 12 data points over 34 weeks. The pattern is consistent enough that I do not think it is chance, and boring enough that nobody is going to screenshot it, which is usually a good sign.

The thing I would flag for anyone new: the effect I am describing showed up at week 88, not week 42. People give up long before the interesting part.

Interested in whether this matches other people's logs or whether I am an outlier.

The 503A pharmacy I used lost their shortage list eligibility. Same day, compounding became illegal. Rules are real.

API transparency is the question that separates good compounders from sketchy ones

Strongly agree. API source transparency matters.

The telehealth + compounding combo cost state board plus 7% markup. Not cheap but covered by insurance depending on state.

Three years on this site and the questions have not changed at all. Which is depressing or reassuring depending on the day.

regulatory claims need a citation to the actual rule, not interpretation

Disagree but this is the good kind of wrong — it is specific enough to be checked.

Respectfully this is a sample of one presented as a finding.

no pharmacy referral codes, naming is fine, recruiting is not

Adding to this: telehealth is doing more work than the comment implies.

That is net peptide content, not purity. Different number, different meaning.

the Australia situation is different from the US, different regulations

About c/compounding

Compounded GLP-1s as a supply route: the 503A/503B distinction, the shortage-list mechanics that made compounding legal and then didn't, state board rules, telehealth prescriber models, and what a compounding pharmacy will and will not tell you about its API source.

c/compounding rules
  1. Regulatory claims need a citation to the actual rule, notice or docket.
  2. No pharmacy referral codes. Naming a pharmacy is fine; recruiting for it is not.
  3. API source questions are on-topic and pharmacies dodging them is newsworthy.
  4. Independent community. Nobody here sells anything, and anyone who tries is banned.
  5. Not medical advice. Describe what you did; never prescribe to a stranger.
  6. Claims need evidence. Batch numbers, dated screenshots, independent test reports, or a citation.
  7. No referral links, discount codes or affiliate URLs. Permanent ban, no appeal.
  8. No contact handles, wallet addresses or tracking numbers — they identify people.
  9. Be recognisably decent. Disagree hard, insult nobody.
