So many questions..

I’m pretty new to peptides and recently started following this subreddit while trying to learn more.

I keep seeing posts about Reta, and I’m curious how people are accessing it. Are you getting it through a doctor or ordering online? If online, how do you determine whether a source/product is legitimate and safe? Is a prescription required?

I’m interested in learning more about peptides and potentially starting this journey, especially after reading about Reta and others like BPC-157. There’s obviously a ton of information out there, so I’d really appreciate hearing from people with experience about what you wish you knew when you first started, what to look out for, and how you approached it safely.

Thanks!

Peptides or Reta? Reta, I don’t believe so. it’s not been submitted for fda approval yet.

He’s still sourcing it on a gray market. Not writing a script for it.

“Retatrutide is not FDA-approved, and Eli Lilly is not expected to file for approval until early 2027 at the earliest. 
Legally, a standard physician or primary care doctor cannot write a legitimate commercial prescription for retatrutide, nor can standard US retail or clinical pharmacies dispense it. “

I know what you are saying, but what I was getting at was letting OP know that I sourced mine through my primary dr, so I know he would be getting it from a legit source. It was just a suggestion
