Safety checks and medical disclaimer

PEPEtide runs automated safety checks on your vials, doses, and peptide combinations. Learn what triggers each alert and what to do when one appears.

PEPEtide includes an automated safety check system that monitors your active vials, scheduled doses, and peptide combinations for common risk conditions. Alerts appear in the Dashboard safety banner so you see them the moment you open the app. This page explains what triggers each check, how severity levels work, and the important limits of what the app can and cannot tell you.

This app is for organizational purposes only — it does not provide medical advice. Many peptides tracked in PEPEtide, including BPC-157 and TB-500, are not approved by the FDA and may carry health risks. Always consult a qualified healthcare professional before starting, modifying, or stopping any peptide protocol. Verify every dosage calculation independently before administering anything. You assume full responsibility for your decisions.

Medical disclaimer

PEPEtide is a personal organization and tracking tool. It helps you record what you plan to take and what you have taken — nothing more. The safety alerts described on this page are automated heuristics based on data you enter; they are not clinical assessments.

Specifically, PEPEtide:

• Does not replace the advice of a licensed healthcare provider
• Does not validate whether a peptide is safe or appropriate for your individual health situation
• Does not account for drug interactions beyond the peptide compatibility information you or a community contributor has entered manually
• Does not have knowledge of your medical history, other medications, or underlying conditions

Always double-check syringe measurements manually before every injection. The reconstitution calculator provides a best estimate based on the values you enter — measurement errors, vial concentration variation, and syringe calibration tolerances are your responsibility to verify.

How the safety check system works

Every time you open the Dashboard, PEPEtide evaluates your current data against four categories of safety checks. Each check has a type and a severity:

Severity levels:

Severity	What it means
info	Something worth noting; no immediate action required
warning	A condition that needs your attention before your next dose
danger	A condition that you should resolve before proceeding

All active alerts are displayed together in the Dashboard safety banner.

Safety check types

Expiration — vial nearing or past expiry

PEPEtide checks the expiration date stored on each of your active vials and fires an alert based on how close you are to that date:

• Warning (warning): the vial’s expiration date is within the next 7 days
• Expired (danger): the vial’s expiration date has already passed

Reconstituted vials have an expiration date calculated automatically from the reconstitution date you enter. An unreconstituted vial’s expiration is based on the shelf life you set when adding the peptide.

Add a replacement vial before the warning fires so you have uninterrupted supply. The 7-day window is an early prompt — it does not mean a vial is unsafe on day 6 and unsafe on day 8.

Dosage — dose outside the defined range

When you build a protocol, PEPEtide compares your target dose against the commonDosageRange (min and max) defined on the peptide. If your dose falls outside that range, an alert fires at warning severity.

This check applies to the range set in your personal peptide definition. If you imported a peptide from the community database, the range reflects what was submitted there. You can edit the range at any time in your peptide library.

The check does not fire if no dosage range has been defined for the peptide.

Missed dose — scheduled dose not marked taken

If a dose was scheduled in your calendar and was never marked as taken, PEPEtide flags it as a missed dose. Severity varies:

• info for a single recently missed dose
• warning for multiple missed doses or a pattern of non-completion

Missed dose alerts give you visibility into protocol adherence. They do not suggest you should double-dose to compensate — see the double-dose check below.

Double dose — dose already logged for the same period

If the app detects that a dose has already been logged for the same scheduled period and you attempt to log another, a warning fires. This is a safeguard against accidentally recording — or administering — the same dose twice.

If you intentionally skipped a dose and are not making it up, use the “Skip” status instead of logging a second taken dose.

Interaction — peptide mixing conflict

PEPEtide checks each peptide in your active protocols against the compatibility lists stored on your peptide definitions. Each peptide in your library can have a list of peptides it is considered safe to combine with and a separate list of peptides it should not be combined with.

• Compatible pairing: no alert fired
• Incompatible pairing: alert fires at danger severity

Interaction data is only as accurate as the information entered into your peptide library or submitted by a community contributor. PEPEtide does not have access to a medical drug-interaction database. Consult a healthcare professional for any combination you are uncertain about.

Where alerts appear

All active safety checks surface in the Dashboard safety banner — the alert area at the top of the main Dashboard view. The banner shows all current alerts grouped by severity, with the highest-severity alerts listed first.

There is no push notification system. You see alerts when you open the app and navigate to the Dashboard.

Tips for safe use

Verify measurements manually

Always confirm syringe draw volume by eye before injecting. Do not rely solely on the calculator output.

Check dosage guidelines with a professional

The dosage ranges in PEPEtide come from user-entered or community-submitted data. A healthcare provider can give you guidance specific to your situation.

Keep peptide definitions current

Safety checks for dosage and interactions depend on the data you’ve entered. Outdated or missing ranges mean fewer alerts — not a clean bill of health.

Review community data critically

Community submissions reflect individual experiences and research, not clinical trials. Always cross-reference with a qualified professional before acting on community data.
