The Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee (PCAC) may have voted to give the peptides FDA approval, but it does not greenlight pharmacy compounders to make gray market peptides that are currently labeled for research purposes only and not for human consumption (as a legal workaround for pharmaceutical compounders)
