# Peptide ingredient-check checklist

Peptide Care Index · Source check: October 14, 2026

Use this checklist to prepare a question for your anti-doping organization. It does not grant permission to use a substance.

1. Identify the event, federation, or league and the anti-doping rules it uses.
2. Record the full active-ingredient name, brand, formulation, and every other listed ingredient. Keep the product label and any prescription records.
3. Check the List edition in force. The 2026 WADA List applies at this check; the published 2027 edition takes effect January 1, 2027.
4. Read the full section, including timing, sex scope, and any exception. Do not treat a missing name as permission.
5. Search Global DRO where covered. Keep the reference number from the result. If the ingredient is missing or the identity is unclear, ask the responsible anti-doping organization.
6. For a medically necessary prohibited treatment, ask the responsible authority about TUE requirements. A prescription alone is not a TUE.

**Question to copy:**

Please confirm the anti-doping status of the exact ingredient and formulation below under the rules for my event. Does it fall within a named entry or prohibited class, and are there timing, sex, method, or TUE conditions I need to check?
