“Personalized” blend

Where a compounded drug parts company with an FDA-approved one, where 503A parts company with 503B, and which accreditation programs tell them apart.

Definition

A compounded product combining a GLP-1 with something else — B12, glycine, NAD+, an amino acid. ⛔ Marketed as tailored care; it is also a way to argue the preparation is not simply a copy of an approved drug. The additives have no trial evidence for weight loss at these doses, and they change what you are comparing on price.

Semaglutide compounded with B12
