Hgh is on the list
Well of course...because its beneficial, why wouldnt our evil lords and masters want it banned or to come at a cost of 600% more. They cant have us healthy unless it makes us more poor. Gotta walk that fine line w the cattle
 
Super interesting. So AAS raws have obviously been illegal (and a higher classification of controlled substance?) this whole time and suppliers have still managed to bring in Raws from overseas.

Does this imply they'll be doing more searching/seizing or could raws get caught in the peptide dragnet?

TBH I have always been shocked at how easy it is to get gear despite it being a controlled substance. Then again the government has always had limited ability to control illegal drug trafficking in marketsthat are 10000x bigger (coke, opiods, etc) and should be a higher priority so maybe we have nothing to worry about.
 
FDA targeting GLP-1's hard right now, even some AAS board owners were asked by the FDA to stop the selling of them.

Years ago, it was Viagra and Cialis the FDA was cracking down on.

Id stock up on GH ASAP.

So when they were just selling Tren and Anadrol which are actually dangerous drugs horrible for your health the FDA didn't say shit to them, but when they start selling GLP1s the FDA says thats a bridge too far? 🤣 Honestly such a fucking disgusting agency

Whoever will need to change the way they import their peptides to match how AAS are brought into the country. Customs are going to start siezing packages coming to and from non "greenlit" companies. As it stands now, or as it stood I should say. RUO shipments could come in based on the research use only guidelines. Now that is illegal. AAS have always came in under the radar with whatever measures they use to avoid detection. Any persistent company here will have to do the same. As best I understand it anyway.

You're right about their motivation and right about how disgusting they are, but youre not right about the rest...Now, peptides are in the same category to customs as tren or anadrol, so they must be gotten in illegally same as AAS as opposed to getting them in legally through Research Use Only means.
 
AI Fact Check... That article is mostly exaggerated.

Here is a point-by-point accuracy check of the claims in the article you provided:

1) BIOSECURE Act / Supply Chain Restrictions
Claim:
The BIOSECURE Act takes effect throughout 2026 and restricts U.S. entities from sourcing biotechnology equipment or services from “companies of concern,” forcing migration to FDA-registered facilities.

Assessment: Partially accurate, but overstated and somewhat misleading.
The BIOSECURE Act has been proposed in Congress to restrict U.S. government contracting with certain foreign biotechnology firms considered national security risks (primarily Chinese companies).

However:
It primarily targets federal procurement and federally funded entities, not all U.S. private importers.
It is not a blanket FDA import rule.
It does not automatically require all private importers to move to FDA-registered facilities, though GMP/FDA registration has always been required for lawful drug manufacturing.

Bottom line: The Act is real policy movement, but the article exaggerates its scope and presents it as a sweeping private-sector import crackdown.

2) Import Alert 66-80 / “Green List” for GLP-1 APIs
Claim:
FDA created a “Green List” specifically for GLP-1 APIs under Import Alert 66-80; CBP now automatically seizes any shipment not from a Green List manufacturer via DWPE.

Assessment: Mostly inaccurate.

Facts:
Import Alert 66-80 does exist. It allows Detention Without Physical Examination (DWPE) for certain unapproved or misbranded drugs.
DWPE has existed for many years; it is not new.
FDA import alerts typically include:
A Red List (firms subject to automatic detention).
Sometimes a Green List (firms removed from detention after demonstrating compliance).
However: There is no publicly established “GLP-1 Green List” category specific to semaglutide or tirzepatide APIs.
Shipments are not automatically seized merely because a manufacturer is “not on a Green List.”
DWPE applies when a product appears to violate the FD&C Act (unapproved new drug, misbranding, adulteration, etc.).
Bottom line:
Import Alert 66-80 is real and DWPE is real — but the description of a new GLP-1-specific Green List system is not supported by standard FDA import procedures.

3) Closure of the “Research Use Only” (RUO) Loophole
Claim:
Labeling products as “Research Use Only” or “Not for Human Consumption” no longer shields vendors if intended use is therapeutic.
Assessment: Largely accurate.
The FDA has long applied the “Intended Use Doctrine.”
If marketing materials, websites, dosing guides, or communications imply human therapeutic use, FDA may classify the product as:
An unapproved new drug
Or misbranded under the FD&C Act
The FDA and DOJ have indeed increased enforcement against peptide vendors marketing “research chemicals” that are clearly intended for human use.
Important nuance:
This is not new law in 2026 — it’s longstanding enforcement authority.
What may have changed is enforcement intensity, not legal framework.
Bottom line: Substantively correct in principle, but framed as a new rule when it is longstanding regulatory doctrine.

4) Elimination of Compounding Categories (BPC-157, Thymosin Beta-4)
Claim:
By early 2026, FDA moved certain peptides (e.g., BPC-157, TB-4) into prohibited status for compounding under Section 503A.
Assessment: Partially accurate but oversimplified.
Key regulatory reality:
Under Section 503A, pharmacies may compound substances that:
Are components of FDA-approved drugs, OR
Appear on the 503A Bulk Drug Substances List, OR
Are nominated and under FDA review (in some circumstances).
Peptides like:
BPC-157
Thymosin Beta-4
have generally:
Not been FDA-approved drugs.
Not been formally included on the 503A bulk substances list.
FDA has issued warning letters regarding compounding of certain peptides due to lack of safety/efficacy data.
However:
There is no single formal “prohibited status announcement” eliminating an entire category in one stroke.
Enforcement has been piecemeal via warning letters, guidance documents, and risk-based prioritization.
Bottom line: Enforcement risk has increased, but the article frames it as a categorical regulatory ban event, which is not how FDA typically operates.
Overall Credibility Assessment

The article:
✔ Mixes real regulatory mechanisms (DWPE, Intended Use Doctrine, 503A rules).
✔ Correctly identifies increased scrutiny around GLP-1 APIs and peptides.
❌ Overstates the existence of new sweeping 2026 regulatory actions.
❌ Describes systems (like a GLP-1-specific “Green List”) that do not match standard FDA import framework.
❌ Frames longstanding regulatory authority as brand-new law.
High-Level Conclusion

This appears to be:
A policy-adjacent summary written for the peptide / gray-market GLP-1 audience,
Combining real enforcement mechanisms with speculative or exaggerated interpretations,
Possibly intended to create urgency or justify supply disruptions.

It is not outright fabricated, but it is not technically precise and contains exaggerations.

Yes, the BIOSECURE Act (enacted as part of the FY 2026 National Defense Authorization Act) is likely to significantly affect small Research Use Only (RUO) peptide companies, particularly those that rely on Chinese contract development and manufacturing organizations (CDMOs) for their supply chain
. While the act primarily targets federal contracting, its broad definition of "biotechnology equipment or services" and the pressure to shift away from designated "Biotechnology Companies of Concern" (BCCs) will create disruptions, higher costs, and compliance challenges for smaller firms.
JPT Peptide Technologies +3
Here is a breakdown of how the BIOSECURE Act affects small RUO peptide companies:

1. Disruption of Supply Chain and Sourcing
  • Reliance on Chinese Suppliers: Many small peptide companies rely on Chinese suppliers for raw materials, custom peptide synthesis, and catalog peptides.
  • Targeted Companies: The act (specifically targeting firms like WuXi AppTec, which has been associated with the legislation) will force a, re-evaluation of these partnerships.
  • Shortages and Increased Costs: As companies scramble to move manufacturing to non-restricted, often more expensive, alternatives in the US or Europe, small firms may face supply chain bottlenecks and higher costs, potentially delaying research

2. Impact on Federal Funding and Grants
  • Prohibition on Funding: The Act prohibits federal agencies from providing grants or loans to entities that use biotechnology equipment or services from a BCC.
  • Small Business Impact: Small biotech firms, including those in the RUO space, that receive federal grants (e.g., NIH SBIR/STTR grants) will be prohibited from using those funds to purchase peptides from restricted Chinese suppliers.

3. Increased Compliance and Operational Burdens
  • Due Diligence: Small companies will need to conduct rigorous due diligence to ensure their suppliers do not fall under the "Biotechnology Company of Concern" definition.
  • Operational Changes: Transitioning to new, compliant manufacturing partners is a complex, time-consuming, and resource-intensive process.
    www.akingump.com +4

4. Regulatory and Market Shifts
  • FDA Enforcement: Beyond the BIOSECURE Act itself, there is a broader regulatory shift where the FDA is increasing oversight on RUO peptides, particularly when they are used in ways that suggest human application (e.g., in GLP-1 compounds).
  • Market Realignment: The act is driving a shift toward U.S.-based or friendly-nation, compliant suppliers, which may create opportunities for some, but also forces a, costly realignment of existing, low-cost supply chains.
    Pharma's Almanac +3

Summary of Impact
While the BIOSECURE Act includes a 5-year safe harbor for existing contracts, the long-term impact for small RUO peptide companies is a necessary shift away from Chinese-sourced, often lower-cost materials toward more secure, but likely more expensive, alternatives

No disrespect, but you need to drop whatever POS AI you used for that bunch of nonsense it fed you. Just Google "FDA Import Alert 66-80" which is the actual law or guideline they made and it absolutely states that there is a green list of companies and even states how a company can be taken off for breaching the agreement.

Ok, thank you sir. I'm not disrespected. I didnt create the AI, but I'm sorry if you found my post offensive.
 
They ain’t grabbing my 5”x4”x6” packages. It’s not worth their time. It’s been illegal to ship steroids into the states since the 90’s. How’s that been affecting anyone 🤔. People need to simmer down.
Sounds like a reasonable statement. However someone seized a shipment of my peps in January.

Whoever will need to change the way they import their peptides to match how AAS are brought into the country. Customs are going to start siezing packages coming to and from non "greenlit" companies. As it stands now, or as it stood I should say. RUO shipments could come in based on the research use only guidelines. Now that is illegal. AAS have always came in under the radar with whatever measures they use to avoid detection. Any persistent company here will have to do the same. As best I understand it anyway.
I guess what might make it more difficult is the grey area peptide market is actually huge. A few kilos of raw aas is literally enough for all the drug addicts on this entire forum. Cant say the same about the millions of soccer moms on GLP1s
 
I am sure the added tariffs for the last year are causing more scrutiny for packages coming in to make sure the proper taxes are paid.
 
So when they were just selling Tren and Anadrol which are actually dangerous drugs horrible for your health the FDA didn't say shit to them, but when they start selling GLP1s the FDA says thats a bridge too far? 🤣 Honestly such a fucking disgusting agency
Its all about the $$$$$$$

I hear scripts of Ompezic being like 1200 a month....
When you can get it for the 1/3rd of the price from most UGLS.
