What's the legal status of it, today?
“Legal” is rarely a clean yes or no — so we don't pretend it is. Peptlas is a neutral, independent reference that tracks the U.S. and international regulatory status of named compounds under FDA process — every entry sourced, dated, and organized by name. We sell nothing. We just tell you where things actually stand.

The five states
We never reduce this to “legal / illegal.” Every badge pairs a color with a word, so status is readable without relying on color.
- Under review
- Actively before the FDA advisory committee; a decision is pending and the status can move.
- In limbo
- Nominated or removed from a restricted list but NOT approved — the headline implies a change, but the legal reality did not move.
- Restricted
- Prescription-only, banned, controlled, or under active FDA enforcement.
- Compounding-legal
- On the FDA 503A bulk-substances list; a licensed pharmacy may compound it. This is not the same as being an FDA-approved drug.
- Unscheduled
- No specific federal action; unaddressed at this time.
