BPC-157 is quickly becoming one of the most talked-about peptides in functional medicine—and for good reason. Originally derived from a protective protein found in the stomach, BPC-157 shows promise in healing gut issues, speeding up soft tissue repair, calming inflammation, and more.
But with its growing popularity comes a lot of questions. Is it safe? Is it legal? And does it actually work?
At Holistic Medical Wellness, we prescribe BPC-157 as part of medically guided peptide therapy plans for clients in Bay Harbor Islands, Miami Beach, and surrounding areas. Here’s what you should know before considering it for yourself.
BPC stands for “Body Protective Compound.” BPC-157 is a lab-synthesized version of a peptide found in human gastric juice. It’s classified as a pentadecapeptide—meaning it contains 15 amino acids—and it’s designed to support tissue repair and reduce inflammation throughout the body.
It can be taken as an oral capsule, subcutaneous injection, or nasal spray, depending on your needs.
BPC-157 is widely used in functional and regenerative medicine for:
Many users notice improvements in energy, digestion, mobility, and recovery within a few weeks of use.
Yes—when prescribed and monitored by a licensed provider.
In both animal and early human studies, BPC-157 has shown a strong safety profile. It’s non-toxic, well-tolerated, and does not suppress natural hormone production or cause dependency.
At Holistic Medical Wellness, we only use pharmaceutical-grade BPC-157 from licensed compounding pharmacies and provide supervision throughout your protocol.
Yes, it is legal—but it’s not FDA-approved as a drug.
Here’s the breakdown:
Many of the concerns around legality come from companies marketing BPC-157 for unsupervised, recreational use—which is not how we practice. At Holistic Medical Wellness, we follow strict safety protocols, including provider-only access and dosage monitoring.
Evidence suggests yes—especially for injury healing and gut health.
Though large-scale human clinical trials are still limited, decades of preclinical data and patient-reported outcomes are promising.
While more research is needed to confirm long-term outcomes, current evidence supports its use in supervised clinical settings.
Thinking about using BPC-157 for recovery or gut support?
Our approach to peptide therapy always starts with your unique biology and goals.
You’ll also receive guidance on nutrition, stress, and movement to get the most from your therapy.
No, it’s not FDA-approved as a drug, but it is legally available by prescription through compounding pharmacies.
It can be injected subcutaneously near an injury site, taken orally, or used as a nasal spray depending on your plan.
Most protocols last 4–6 weeks, but chronic issues may require cycling every few months.
Yes. BPC-157 has shown effectiveness in restoring gut lining integrity and reducing inflammation.
It generally does not, but we always review your full medication list before starting.
Yes, it’s widely used in sports medicine and injury rehab. It is not currently on most banned substance lists.
Short-term protocols are most common, but some patients use BPC-157 for maintenance under provider supervision.
We use only licensed, high-purity peptides and combine them with functional testing, lifestyle coaching, and physician oversight.
We strongly advise against it. Over-the-counter peptides are often contaminated or mislabeled. Only use peptides prescribed by a medical provider.
BPC-157 isn’t a magic pill—but it’s one of the most promising tools in functional medicine today. For those dealing with inflammation, injury, gut dysfunction, or chronic wear and tear, it provides real support at the cellular level.
At Holistic Medical Wellness, we prioritize safety, science, and results. Our peptide therapy protocols, including BPC-157, are backed by clinical insight, medical supervision, and a commitment to helping you feel better from the inside out.
