The Tide Peptide Clinic (“The Tide”) is committed to providing accurate, evidence-based information about peptide therapy and related medical services. This Disclaimers page outlines important limitations and clarifications regarding the content on our website and the services we provide. Please read this page carefully.
Medical disclaimer
The content on thetide.clinic is provided for general informational and educational purposes only. It is not intended as, and should not be construed as, medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment. The information presented does not establish a physician-patient relationship.
Always seek the advice of a qualified healthcare provider with any questions you may have regarding a medical condition, treatment, or medication. Never disregard professional medical advice or delay seeking treatment because of information you have read on this website. If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency, call 911 or go to the nearest emergency room immediately.
The Tide’s clinical services are available only through formal consultation and an established patient relationship. Information about treatments, medications, peptides, and protocols described on this website may not be appropriate for your individual situation. Decisions about your care must be made in consultation with a licensed clinician familiar with your medical history.
Peptide therapy and FDA status
The peptides discussed on this website fall into multiple regulatory categories with different evidence bases and approval statuses.
FDA-approved peptides such as semaglutide (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus), tirzepatide (Mounjaro, Zepbound), and bremelanotide (Vyleesi) have received Food and Drug Administration approval for specific indications and may be prescribed for those approved uses, or off-label when clinically appropriate.
Compounded peptides such as BPC-157, sermorelin, ipamorelin, and others are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies for individual patients with valid prescriptions. These compounds have not received FDA approval as commercial drug products. Compounded medications carry inherent variability and quality considerations that we discuss with patients during consultation.
Statements made on this website about peptides and their effects have not been evaluated by the FDA unless specifically noted. Peptide products discussed are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease unless they are FDA-approved for that specific use.
Individual results
Individual results from medical treatment vary substantially based on many factors including age, sex, genetics, medical history, lifestyle, baseline biology, and adherence to recommended protocols. Examples, statistics, or descriptions of typical outcomes presented on this website are not guarantees of specific results for any individual patient. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.
Off-label prescribing
Many peptide therapies and medications described on this website may be prescribed for off-label uses (uses not specifically approved by the FDA for that indication). Off-label prescribing is legal and common in medical practice when supported by appropriate clinical evidence and physician judgment. Patients should understand which uses are FDA-approved and which are off-label, and discuss any concerns with their physician.
Editorial content
Articles and educational content published on our website are written for informational purposes only and have are not considered medical guidance or clinical recommendations. We strive to present current, evidence-based information, but medical knowledge evolves continuously. Specific facts, recommendations, and conclusions reflect our best understanding at the time of publication and may be updated as new evidence emerges.
References to studies, research papers, and scientific literature are intended to provide context. We do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of third-party research. Readers are encouraged to consult original sources and current medical literature when evaluating clinical claims.
Compounding pharmacies
Compounded medications used in our practice are prepared by licensed compounding pharmacies that meet specific quality standards. While we work with reputable compounding partners, compounded medications carry inherent considerations:
- They are not FDA-approved drug products
- Manufacturing standards differ between compounding pharmacies
- Compounded versions of FDA-approved drugs are subject to changing regulatory frameworks
- Stability, sterility, and potency depend on the specific compounding pharmacy’s practices
We discuss compounding considerations with patients during consultation as part of informed treatment decisions.
Testimonials and case examples
Any testimonials, patient stories, or clinical case examples presented on this website reflect individual experiences and should not be interpreted as predictions of typical outcomes for new patients. Patients depicted have provided consent for their stories to be shared. Identifying details may have been changed to protect privacy.
Insurance and financial
The Tide is primarily a cash-pay practice. Information presented about pricing, insurance coverage, or out-of-pocket costs is for general guidance and may not reflect your specific situation. Insurance coverage for medications, particularly compounded medications and off-label uses, varies substantially by plan. Patients are encouraged to verify coverage with their insurance provider.
External links and references
Our website may include links to external websites, scientific publications, regulatory resources, and third-party content. We do not control or warrant the accuracy of external content. Links are provided for convenience and do not constitute endorsement of the linked content or organization.
Service area limitations
The Tide’s clinical services are based in Houston, Texas, and most patient care occurs in person at our 6909 Grand Boulevard location. We may offer telehealth services to established patients in Texas and select other states where our physicians are licensed. State-specific licensing requirements limit which patients can receive care via telehealth. Service availability does not constitute an offer to provide medical care in jurisdictions where we are not licensed to practice.
No representation of regulatory status
Statements about our practice should not be construed as representations about regulatory status, certifications, or affiliations beyond what is explicitly stated. Our physicians are individually licensed by the Texas Medical Board and other applicable state medical boards.
