Compare
Say no, build it, or partner?
Three ways a business can respond when a client asks about peptides. Here is the honest comparison, including the one most locations are choosing by default.
What are the options for a business that wants to offer peptides?
There are three. Keep saying no, and the client buys from a website. Build it in-house, contracting a prescriber and vetting a pharmacy against the HHS policy yourself. Or partner with Peps Healthcare, where you are the seller of record and set your own price while an independent clinician prescribes and a compliant pharmacy compounds. Only the third has no setup cost, no fixed monthly cost and no clinical operation for you to run.
Keep saying no
Best for: Nobody, really. It is what most locations do today.
The client asks about BPC-157, you say you cannot help, and they buy a vial from a website with no prescriber, no pharmacy and no certificate of analysis. You keep your hands clean and lose the conversation, and the client takes the risk alone.
Build it in-house
Best for: Large groups with an existing clinical arm, a pharmacy relationship and compliance counsel.
You contract a prescriber, find a 503A pharmacy that meets all ten conditions of the HHS policy, vet its manufacturer and certificates yourself, and carry the regulatory exposure. You keep 100% of the revenue on paper, after the overhead.
Partner with Peps Healthcare
Best for: Any location that wants to offer peptides properly without becoming a clinic.
You are the seller of record and set your own retail price. Independent clinicians prescribe, a compliant pharmacy compounds and ships, and we bill, remit and support. $50 per treatment per month, nothing to hire, nothing to license.

| Setup cost | None | High | None |
| Monthly fixed cost | None | Salaries, software, counsel | None |
| Cost when nobody buys | None | You still pay it | Zero |
| Who sets the retail price | The website | You | You |
| Who owns the client relationship | The website | You | You |
| Whose brand is on it | Theirs | Yours | Yours |
| Time to launch | Already happening | Months | Days |
| Your team's clinical duties | None | Full | None |
Is it cheaper to run it in-house?
Rarely, once the full cost is counted, and for peptides the hard part is not the money. It is finding a pharmacy that can prove FDA-registered sourcing, a compliant certificate of analysis for every lot, the policy's testing standard and the reporting routine, and then being sure of it. That is diligence most businesses have no way to do. It makes sense mainly for larger groups that already have a clinical arm and counsel.
What does Peps Healthcare charge?
$50 per treatment, per month. Identical for every partner in every program, and it does not change with your volume. Medication and fulfilment are billed at cost. No setup fee, no software licence, no minimum, and nothing to pay in a month where nobody buys.
Who is the seller of record?
You are. You buy the program at your quoted cost, set your own retail price and keep the margin. No money changes hands for sending business in either direction, which is exactly what keeps the structure clean.
