He has repeatedly vowed to end FDAs war on peptides, which have become popular among many followers of his Make America Healthy Again movement
This is one reason many clinicians prefer prescribing 10mg/mL formulations for patients who are new to self-injection
Understanding how peptides work at the molecular level helps contextualize why gradual dose escalation produces different outcomes than immediate full-dose administration
