Frequently Asked Questions

Peptide therapies are short chains of amino acids that signal your body to perform specific functions. Unlike synthetic hormones, peptides work with your body's natural systems to support recovery, growth, and cellular repair. Each peptide has a unique sequence that targets specific biological pathways.

When sourced from reputable manufacturers and used under medical guidance, peptide therapies have an excellent safety profile. All Edition peptides are 100% USA-made through Greenwich Laboratories, fully tested for purity and potency, and include QR-coded lab reports. We recommend consulting with a healthcare provider before starting any new therapy.

Peptides are signaling molecules that encourage your body to produce its own hormones naturally, rather than introducing synthetic hormones. This approach works with your body's feedback loops, reducing the risk of dependency or hormonal imbalance. Peptides are generally better tolerated with fewer side effects.

Many peptides are available for research purposes without a prescription. However, we strongly recommend working with a qualified healthcare provider who can assess your individual needs, monitor your progress, and ensure safe usage. Edition provides clinically guided recommendations for all therapies.

Most peptides are administered via subcutaneous injection (under the skin) using small insulin-style syringes. Common injection sites include the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm. Each product includes detailed administration instructions. Some peptides like Selank are available as nasal sprays for easier administration.

Dosing varies by peptide. Growth hormone peptides (Sermorelin, CJC-1295) are typically injected once daily before bed. Recovery peptides (BPC-157, TB-500) may be dosed 1-2 times daily. NAD+ protocols vary from daily to weekly depending on goals. Your subscription includes dosing guidelines specific to each therapy.

Results vary by peptide and individual response. Recovery peptides (BPC-157, TB-500) may show benefits within 1-2 weeks. Growth hormone peptides typically require 4-8 weeks for noticeable changes in body composition and energy. NAD+ effects on mental clarity can be felt within days, while longevity benefits accumulate over months.

Yes, many peptides work synergistically. Common stacks include CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin for enhanced growth hormone release, or BPC-157 + TB-500 for comprehensive recovery support. We recommend starting with one peptide to assess tolerance, then adding others under medical guidance.

Lyophilized (powder) peptides should be stored in the refrigerator (36-46°F) and are stable for months. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, store in the refrigerator and use within 30 days. Never freeze reconstituted peptides. Keep away from direct light and heat.

Most peptides are well-tolerated. Common mild side effects include temporary injection site redness, water retention (growth hormone peptides), or mild headaches (NAD+). These typically resolve within a few days as your body adjusts. Serious side effects are rare when used at recommended doses.

Peptide therapies may not be suitable for individuals with active cancer, pregnant or nursing women, or those with certain autoimmune conditions. Growth hormone peptides should be used cautiously in individuals with diabetes. Always disclose your full medical history to your healthcare provider before starting.

Many peptides can be used alongside other medications, but interactions are possible. NAD+ may affect blood pressure medications. Growth hormone peptides can influence insulin sensitivity. Provide your complete medication list to your healthcare provider for personalized guidance.

If you miss a dose, take it as soon as you remember unless it's close to your next scheduled dose. Never double up doses. Consistency is important for optimal results, but occasional missed doses won't significantly impact long-term outcomes.

Orders are processed within 1-2 business days. Standard shipping takes 3-5 business days. Expedited options (2-day and overnight) are available at checkout. All peptides are shipped in insulated packaging with ice packs to maintain proper temperature during transit.

Currently, we only ship within the United States. International shipping of peptides involves complex regulations that vary by country. We're working to expand our shipping options in the future.

Lyophilized peptides are stable at room temperature for short periods. If your package arrives slightly warm but was in transit less than 48 hours, the peptides are likely fine. If you have concerns about product integrity, contact our support team for a replacement.

Yes, all orders ship in plain, unmarked packaging with no indication of contents. The return address shows only our business name without reference to peptides or health products.

Subscriptions automatically renew monthly and ship on the same day each month. You'll receive an email reminder 3 days before each renewal. This ensures you never run out of your therapy and maintains consistent dosing for optimal results.

Yes, you have complete control. Log in to your account and visit 'My Subscriptions' to pause, skip a month, or cancel anytime. Changes made before your renewal date take effect immediately. There are no cancellation fees or penalties.

Absolutely. You can adjust your subscription to ship every 30, 60, or 90 days based on your usage. This is helpful if you're dosing less frequently or want to stock up. Contact support or manage this in your account settings.

Visit 'My Subscriptions' in your account, select the subscription you want to update, and click 'Update Payment Method'. You'll be securely redirected to Stripe to enter new card details. Your subscription will continue without interruption.

If a payment fails, we'll automatically retry within 24 hours and send you an email notification. You'll have 7 days to update your payment method before the subscription is paused. Update your card details in 'My Subscriptions' to resume service.

Due to the nature of peptide therapies, we cannot accept returns of shipped products. However, if you receive a damaged or defective product, contact us within 7 days of delivery for a full replacement. Subscription cancellations take effect at the next billing cycle.

Your ideal peptide depends on your goals. For muscle growth and fat loss: Sermorelin or CJC-1295+Ipamorelin. For injury recovery: BPC-157 or TB-500. For cognitive enhancement and stress: Selank. For cellular energy and longevity: NAD+. We recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for personalized recommendations.

Both stimulate growth hormone release, but CJC-1295 has a longer half-life (several days vs. hours), providing more sustained elevation. CJC-1295 is often paired with Ipamorelin for synergistic effects. Sermorelin works through natural pulsatile release, mimicking your body's rhythm more closely.

Yes, BPC-157 has shown remarkable benefits for gut healing in research. It supports the repair of intestinal lining, reduces inflammation, and may help with conditions like leaky gut, IBS, and inflammatory bowel disease. Many users report improved digestion and reduced GI discomfort.

Direct NAD+ (via injection or IV) provides immediate bioavailability and higher tissue levels. NAD+ precursors (NMN, NR) are oral supplements that your body converts to NAD+. Direct NAD+ is more potent for acute benefits, while precursors offer convenient daily maintenance. Some people use both strategically.
