We need to change the law so that the crime is selling mislabeled or contaminated drugs. If you can cook it well enough in your kitchen, you should be allowed to share it with a neighbor in need.
They compounded them, which just means buying the API, reconstituting it, adding another compound (Vit B6), and putting it in sterile vials.

They did not make the peptides. They sourced them from China.
