The Shannon Clinic Melbourne is a progressive sports chiropractor practice and we pride ourselves on being at the cutting edge of regenerative medicine and orthobiologics and incorporate these into managing athletes and patients where appropriate and where the evidence guides its use, which is reflective of our current position stand on BPC-157 (see below)
Schedule 4 outlines prescription-only medicines, encompassing peptides
How to Address the Issue To address the unethical promotion and use of BPC-157, several actions can be taken: 1
Yes, the active peptide is identical (the same 15-amino acid sequence)
A batch-specific Certificate of Analysis (COA) is available identifying lot number, purity percentage, testing methodology, and third-party laboratory credentials
This allows the vial to be used for multiple withdrawals over a limited period when handled properly
