Part 2. Before You Let Anyone Inject You. What You Need to Know.
What should you know before getting a peptide injection at a wellness clinic or med spa? In Part 2 of this conversation, Michele talks about prescriptions, medical oversight, potential red flags, and three important questions to ask before allowing anyone to give you a peptide injection.
Peptide injection safety is something I've been talking about a lot lately. This is part two of a conversation I started in my last episode. Before You Inject Anything: What You Need to Know About Research Grade Peptides and Why It Matters. If you have not listened to that one yet, I recommend starting there first.
In this episode I want to talk about something I get asked about constantly. People are going to wellness clinics and med spas and getting peptide injections. And they are walking out thinking they did everything right because a medical professional gave them the shot. But looking legitimate and being legitimate are two very different things.
I explain exactly what the law requires before anyone can legally give you a peptide injection. I share something most people do not know. You have the right to ask for a copy of your prescription and a legitimate provider must be able to give it to you. I talk about documented enforcement action that happened in 2025 against clinics doing this wrong. And I share something that really got to me. Some people are paying premium prices for products that may be coming from unverified sources with no legitimate prescription behind them.
Then I give you three specific questions to ask before you let anyone inject anything into your body. Anywhere.
