Regarding compounded supply compounding legality: compounding pharmacies can legally produce semaglutide and tirzepatide while these drugs remain on the FDA shortage list. If/when the shortage resolves, the legal landscape may change.
Stay informed. The FDA shortage list is updated regularly. Current status as of my last check: semaglutide shortage ongoing, tirzepatide partially resolved. This directly impacts compounding availability.
A narrower follow-up, since the general answer is now clear:
What did you change at the same time, and can you separate the two now?

Compounded semaglutide formulations for compounded supply: some pharmacies add ingredients like B12, L-carnitine, or BPC-157 to their semaglutide preparations. Are these beneficial or marketing gimmicks?
My take: B12 addition has some logic (GLP-1s can deplete B12). L-carnitine evidence is weak. BPC-157 for GI protection is theoretically interesting but unproven. I prefer straight semaglutide with no additives — fewer variables, cleaner data on what's working.

Saving this. It is the first explanation that did not require me to already understand it. I will report back once I have actually tried it.
