Peptide Therapy
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that act as biological signals in the body. OakMD offers a range of provider-reviewed peptide protocols — from recovery and performance to longevity and sexual health.
Available Peptide Protocols
BPC-157
Body Protective Compound-157. A peptide with extensive pre-clinical research supporting tissue repair, gut health, and inflammation reduction.
- Tissue repair support
- Gut health benefits
- Anti-inflammatory properties
TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4)
A synthetic version of Thymosin Beta-4, studied for its role in tissue repair, wound healing, and anti-inflammatory effects.
- Wound healing peptide
- Anti-inflammatory effects
- Supports recovery from injury
Sermorelin
A GHRH analogue that stimulates natural growth hormone production. Used for anti-aging, body composition, and sleep quality.
- Stimulates natural GH production
- Anti-aging & body composition
- May improve sleep quality
Ipamorelin
A selective GHRP that stimulates GH release with minimal impact on cortisol or prolactin. Often combined with CJC-1295.
- Selective GH release
- Minimal cortisol impact
- Often stacked with CJC-1295
CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin
The most common growth hormone peptide combination. CJC-1295 extends GH pulse duration while ipamorelin amplifies GH release.
- Most popular GH peptide stack
- Extended GH pulse duration
- Body composition support
PT-141 (Bremelanotide)
A melanocortin receptor agonist used to address sexual dysfunction in both men and women through central nervous system pathways.
- Central nervous system mechanism
- For sexual dysfunction
- Available for men & women
Tesamorelin
An FDA-approved GHRH analogue with clinical evidence for visceral fat reduction and metabolic effects.
- FDA-approved peptide
- Visceral fat reduction
- Proven metabolic effects
AOD-9604
A fragment of the human growth hormone molecule researched for its fat metabolism properties without the growth-promoting effects of full HGH.
- Fat metabolism support
- No growth-promoting effects
- HGH fragment peptide

How OakMD Works
Common Questions
Are peptides legal and FDA-approved?
The regulatory status of peptides varies significantly. Some peptides (like tesamorelin) are FDA-approved for specific indications. Others are prescribed off-label or exist in regulatory grey areas. OakMD providers are transparent about the evidence and regulatory status of each peptide.
How are peptides administered?
Most peptides used in clinical practice are administered via subcutaneous injection. Some, like PT-141, are available as nasal sprays. Your provider will discuss the appropriate administration method for your protocol.
