KISSPEPTIN-10·US LEGAL STATUS·LAST CHECKED 12 OCT 2026

Is Kisspeptin-10 legal?

Not as a drug. Kisspeptin-10 has no FDA approval, so selling it for human use breaks federal drug law, and a 'research use only' label does not protect a seller whose site signals human use. It is not a controlled substance, and possessing it is not a federal crime. FDA lists it as a significant safety risk for compounding, so pharmacies cannot compound it.
