Can a doctor prescribe this?

Small pharmacy (503A)
Category 3 — not enough evidence sent in
Large outsourcing facility (503B)
Category 2 — FDA flagged a safety concern

The FDA has "GHRP-6" in Category 3 of the substances put forward for small-pharmacy (503A) compounding: someone did put it forward, but what was sent in did not include enough evidence for the FDA to judge it.

503A is a pharmacy making a single prescription for one patient. 503B is a facility making batches. They are governed by separate lists. Where a category is shown, it is a position on the FDA's list of substances that have been put forward and are still being worked through — not the final list, which is set by rulemaking. Category 1 means the FDA does not plan to act against a pharmacy that makes it while the review runs.
