Expect a clear answer. # Who makes it matters. Ask for the actual pharmacy name, then check the public record behind it. Compounder The pharmacy, clinician, or registered facility that makes a medicine to order. Ask for the pharmacy before the package A question to take with you Please name the pharmacy in full: who would prepare my sermorelin and send it to me? The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) points out that an online buyer of compounded medicine may be unaware of its actual maker. Ask for the pharmacy name in writing. Use that name for the lookup, then compare it with the information supplied with any prescription. A pharmacy’s license record comes from a state board of pharmacy, a different body from the board that licenses doctors. Use the state record The FDA’s pharmacy lookup page links to state license databases. Open the FDA route to state pharmacy searches → Match the pharmacy name, rather than the name on an ad. Read the status and any conditions shown in the record. Ask the board to clarify a missing or unclear entry. Keep the answer with your visit notes. Most states, as of September 26, 2026, also make a pharmacy based elsewhere obtain permission before sending medicine into that state. A license entry establishes that a license exists; it does not establish that every prescription is appropriate. Outsourcing facility A registered maker of batches of sterile medicine; sterile means free of living germs. If a large facility is named instead As of September 26, 2026, a registered outsourcing facility follows a different federal compounding route from an ordinary pharmacy. The FDA publishes a register of those facilities.

The facility register also omits state board actions, and some information in it is reported by the facilities themselves. Read what FDA approval does and does not mean Once you know who would make it, ask what rules apply to that preparation.
