## Clinical & Consumer Guidelines

1. **Compounding Legality**: Licensed 503A and 503B pharmacies compound semaglutide and tirzepatide under Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FD&C Act) exemptions during recognized FDA drug shortages.
2. **Salt Forms Warning**: The FDA warns against compounded drugs using semaglutide sodium or semaglutide acetate. GLP-1 Guard only lists providers verified to use compliant base peptide APIs.
3. **True Out-of-Pocket Cost**: Always add provider monthly membership dues to medication list prices to evaluate true ongoing cost.
