What This Means

Compoundable does not mean FDA approved.

Hexarelin is available through licensed 503A compounding pharmacies with a physician's prescription. This is a regulatory pathway, not an endorsement of efficacy for any specific indication. All use is off-label.

Reclassification is not the same as FDA approval.

Even if Hexarelin moves to Category 1, it remains an off-label therapeutic that requires physician supervision. Category 1 means it can be compounded under section 503A — it does not confer approved-drug status.
