BPC-157: from $199
Your telehealth visit is free. If you buy, we add a $49 medication review for your prescription.
Nothing to pay to book. California residents only.
Our nurse calls you at the time you pick, wherever you are in California. Pick it up at Calabasas, Santa Monica or West Hollywood, or have it shipped home.
Your prescription is filled by a licensed U.S. 503A pharmacy.
Nothing is dispensed without a prescription from our medical team.
BPC-157 is prescribed after a consultation, once a provider reviews your history and goals. It is most often considered by people focused on recovery and connective-tissue support.
Active people managing a nagging tendon, ligament, or soft-tissue issue
Anyone prioritizing recovery between training blocks
People interested in gut-lining support alongside standard care
The only way to know if it fits is a free consultation with our medical team, who confirm whether it is appropriate for you.
BPC-157 has been studied mainly for tissue repair and recovery, in lab and animal research.
Clinicians who use it tend to focus on muscle, joint and gut concerns.
It’s prescription only, decided case by case with our medical team.
Recovery of tendons, ligaments, and muscle after strain or injury
Support for the lining of the stomach and intestines
A calmer inflammatory response in irritated tissue
Formation of new small blood vessels in healing tissue (angiogenesis)
Nearly all BPC-157 research is in animals. In people, only a few small studies exist, and none published in full had a comparison group.
BPC-157 is not FDA-approved for any use. These studies don’t show that it treats any condition in people, and safety data in people are limited. Your free consultation with a nurse practitioner is the place to talk through what is and isn’t known.
Most peptides are not FDA-approved for the uses discussed publicly, and are prescribed at the discretion of a licensed provider after an individual evaluation. A peptide is not appropriate for everyone, and individual results vary.
Peptide therapy at Cienega Medical is available by prescription only. You start with a consultation with one of our nurse practitioners, who reviews your health history, your goals, and whether a peptide is appropriate for you. If it is, they write the prescription and we prepare it for your visit. If it is not, they will tell you that too.
BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide studied for recovery and tissue repair, mostly in lab and animal research so far.
It is not FDA-approved.
In July 2026 an FDA advisory committee recommended letting licensed pharmacies compound it, which is not an approval.

BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide studied mainly in preclinical (laboratory and animal) research on recovery and repair. Human clinical evidence is limited and no health benefits have been established. A single-bottle blend containing BPC-157, KPV and TB-500, two other peptides studied for repair and inflammatory signalling, is also available. Which one fits, if either, is a decision your nurse practitioner makes with you at the free consultation.
No. BPC-157 is not currently FDA-approved. In July 2026, an FDA advisory committee voted to recommend allowing licensed pharmacies to compound BPC-157, and that recommendation is now in the FDA's formal review process, not an approval of BPC-157. We provide it by prescription only, following a free nurse practitioner consultation to decide whether it is appropriate for you.
BPC-157 is not right for everyone. Your nurse practitioner reviews your health history, current medications and existing conditions before prescribing, and will tell you if it is not a fit. Bring your current medication list to your free consultation.
Bottle prices are listed on this page. Every order includes one medication review fee, which covers the review and managing your prescriptions, and is charged once even when prescriptions go out as separate orders the same day. The consultation itself is free.
Pick a time for a free telehealth visit with a nurse practitioner, by phone or video. Before your visit, you fill out a short health form. They go through your health history, your current medications and what you are trying to achieve, then tell you whether this is a sensible fit. Not everyone is, and if you are, they write the prescription and you pay for your bottles plus one medication review fee.
Your prescription is filled by a licensed U.S. 503A compounding pharmacy.
That depends on what your provider prescribes, so it is not something we can put a number on here. Your nurse practitioner tells you at your review roughly how long a bottle should last for you and when it would make sense to order again. You can order as many bottles as your nurse prescribes while you’re on the call, and when you need more, book another call online or call us. Each call where you order adds one $49 medication review. Nothing renews on its own. If you’d like bottles sent on a regular schedule, ask your nurse: it’s worked out case by case, since everyone’s prescription is different.
Both. Collect at West Hollywood, Santa Monica or Calabasas, where we pack it for you and show you how to inject it, all covered by the medication review fee. Or we ship it to your home anywhere in California, at no extra charge.
