This warning letter advises you of significant violations observed during a U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) review of your website. Promptly address the violations described herein without delay, including ensuring that appropriate resources are allocated to fully address the violations and prevent their recurrence. This is not intended to be an all-inclusive list of the violations that may exist in connection with your products or operations. It is your responsibility to ensure that your firm complies with all requirements of federal law, including FDA regulations. Failure to adequately address violations may result in regulatory or legal action without further notice including, without limitation, seizure and injunction.
Violations were identified and documented during a review of your website https://peptide.partners/ in July 2026. Based on our review,“GLP-1 S (Semaglutide),” “GLP-2 T (Tirzepatide),” “GLP-3 Reta (Retatrutide),” “SS-31 (Elamipretide),” “Tesa Peptide (Tesamorelin),” “PT-141 (Bremelanotide),” and “Reconstitution Solution (BAC)” are unapproved new drugs under section 505(a) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act), 21 U.S.C. 355(a). As explained further below, introducing or delivering these products for introduction into interstate commerce violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).
These products are especially concerning from a public health perspective because injectable drug products can pose risks of serious harm to users. Injectable products are delivered directly into the body, sometimes directly into the bloodstream, and therefore, bypass some of the body’s key defenses against toxins and microorganisms that can lead to serious and life-threatening conditions.
“GLP-1 S (Semaglutide),” “GLP-2 T (Tirzepatide),” “GLP-3 Reta (Retatrutide),” ”SS-31 (Elamipretide),” “Tesa Peptide (Tesamorelin),” “PT-141 (Bremelanotide),” and “Reconstitution Solution (BAC)” are “new drugs” under section 201(p) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 321(p), because they are not generally recognized as safe and effective (GRASE) for use under the conditions prescribed, recommended, or suggested in their labeling. With certain exceptions not applicable here, a new drug may not be introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce without an approved application from FDA in effect, as described in section 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355(a). No approved applications pursuant to section 505 of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 355, are in effect for these products. Accordingly, these products are unapproved new drugs. The introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of these unapproved new drug products violates sections 301(d) and 505(a) of the FD&C Act, 21 U.S.C. 331(d) and 355(a).

What FDA warning letters mean
A warning letter is FDA's principal means of telling a company that the agency considers something it's doing — a marketing claim, a manufacturing practice, a labeling choice — to violate the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act. Companies typically have 15 working days to respond.
A warning letter is not a recall, a criminal charge, or a finding that the company has broken the law. It is the start of a regulatory conversation. FDA may issue a close-out letter once it is satisfied that the company has corrected the cited issues.
For compounded GLP-1 telehealth providers, the most common citations involve unapproved new drug claims, misbranding, and the use of bulk drug substances not on FDA's approved list under FDCA sections 503A and 503B.

Editorial Disclaimer
FDA warning letters are public regulatory communications and do not, on their own, indicate that a company has done anything illegal. Companies often respond to warning letters with corrective action, and many letters are eventually closed out. The full text of this letter is available on fda.gov via the link above.
