UNDERSTAND THE TREATMENT
What is MOTS-C?
MOTS-C is a peptide associated with mitochondrial biology and studied in metabolic research. Its connection to cellular signaling has generated interest, but the biology alone does not prove a benefit from injections.
The starting point is your health history and the reason you are seeking care—not a dosing schedule found online. Your clinician can assess whether a treatment discussion is appropriate and whether a better-studied option makes more sense.
WHAT PEOPLE ASK
MOTS-C: common questions
What are the benefits of MOTS-c?
In mice it improved insulin sensitivity and physical capacity. In people, published data are mainly measurements of natural MOTS-c levels, which rise with exercise, not trials of MOTS-c as a treatment. Read the MOTS-c evidence and safety guide.
What are the side effects of MOTS-c?
They are not known from human treatment studies. FDA says it has not identified human exposure data for MOTS-c products and lacks important safety information. It is prohibited in tested sport.
How much does MOTS-C cost?
MOTS-C is $255 a month on a one-month plan. That includes the online consultation, the clinician review, supplies, and two-day shipping once the pharmacy dispenses. Three-, six- and twelve-month plans are offered at checkout. If the clinician decides treatment is not appropriate for you, your payment is refunded. See what peptide pricing includes.
Can I get MOTS-C online?
Yes, through a clinician review. You complete an online health assessment, a licensed clinician reviews it (a phone call may be needed) and decides whether MOTS-C is appropriate. If it is prescribed, a licensed U.S. compounding pharmacy prepares it and ships it to you. Peps RX serves patients in all 50 states; a prescription is never guaranteed.

Quality you can check
What a licensed U.S. compounding pharmacy means for your prescription, and what it does not.
Prepared for one patient
Peps RX prescriptions are compounded by a state-licensed U.S. 503A pharmacy for the individual patient named on the prescription. That is a different pathway from products sold “for research use only,” which are not made or labeled for use in people.
Sterile compounding standards
Injectable preparations are sterile preparations. USP <797> is the national standard for compounding them, covering cleanroom conditions, personnel garbing, and beyond-use dating, and state boards of pharmacy enforce it.
What compounding does not mean
Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved. FDA does not review them for safety, effectiveness, or quality before they are dispensed, and state boards of pharmacy are primarily responsible for overseeing 503A pharmacies.
Check the pharmacy yourself
Your prescription label names the dispensing pharmacy. You can confirm its license on that state’s board of pharmacy website. How to verify a compounding pharmacy.

*Results may vary. All prescription-grade therapies require a prescription from a licensed provider and are prepared by licensed pharmacies. Compounded medications are not FDA-approved, and the FDA does not review them for safety, efficacy, or quality.

THE DETAILS MATTER
Good questions. Clear answers.
What does the $255 monthly price include?
The displayed monthly price includes the asynchronous consultation, supplies, and two-day shipping after dispensing. Your medical questionnaire starts the process; a licensed clinician independently determines whether treatment is appropriate.
How much MOTS-C should I use?
Your dose is determined by the prescribing clinician from your intake form, health history, current medications, and the reason you are seeking care. The strengths listed on this page are product specifications, not instructions for use. Do not calculate a protocol from this catalog or combine treatments without an individualized clinical review.
How long will this vial last?
How long a vial lasts depends on the prescribed dose, schedule, formulation, and pharmacy instructions. The monthly price shown on this page describes the care plan; follow the fulfillment and use directions provided by your clinician and pharmacy.
Is MOTS-C FDA-approved?
MOTS-C is not FDA-approved. In its published review, FDA states that it has not identified human exposure data for drug products containing MOTS-C and lacks important safety information. Do not interpret metabolic research as proof of weight loss or improved exercise performance.
When will my order arrive?
The listed price includes two-day shipping once the pharmacy dispenses and ships an approved prescription. It does not mean delivery two days after your first visit. Review, preparation, location, and carrier conditions affect the overall timeline.
