What the statuses mean
- Under review
- Actively before the FDA advisory committee; a decision is pending and the status can move.
- In limbo
- Moved on paper - nominated, removed from a restricted list, or recommended by an FDA committee - but not added to the 503A list. The headline implies a change; the legal status has not moved.
- Restricted
- Prescription-only, banned, controlled, or under active FDA enforcement.
- Compounding-legal
- A licensed pharmacy may compound it on prescription: it is on the FDA 503A bulk-substances list or is an ingredient of an FDA-approved drug that is not on the market. This is not the same as being an FDA-approved drug.
- Unscheduled
- No specific federal action; unaddressed at this time.
Status is never reduced to “legal / illegal.” Each badge pairs a color with a word, and every entry links to the primary source behind it. How we track it.
Asked and answered
- How many peptides does Peptlas track, and what are their statuses?
- Peptlas currently tracks 26 compounds under U.S. FDA process: 17 in limbo, 8 restricted, 1 compounding-legal. Every entry is human-verified, dated, and linked to its primary source.
- Are the peptides on this list FDA-approved?
- No. This index tracks regulatory status under the FDA’s compounding framework, not drug approval. Even a “compounding-legal” status means only that a licensed pharmacy may compound the substance under Section 503A - it is not the same as being an FDA-approved drug.
- What does “in limbo” mean when a peptide is on this list?
- Moved on paper - nominated, removed from a restricted list, or recommended by an FDA committee - but not added to the 503A list. The headline implies a change; the legal status has not moved.
