Immunomodulation protocols, post-viral and chronic infection support, and longevity stacks that actually move biological-age markers.
04 · Sexual & Hormonal
PT-141, Kisspeptin, GHK-Cu
Sexual-health protocols that work for both genders, hair and skin protocols, and clean integration with TRT/HRT pipelines.
05 · Patient Selection
The contraindication map
A printable decision tree: who to enroll, who to defer, and the four red-flag combinations that should never see a peptide prescription.

Vetted compounding-pharmacy criteria, intake forms, informed-consent templates, and the documentation trail that protects your clinic.
— The Curriculum
The complete peptide curriculum.
The full path from peptide therapy fundamentals to confident clinical practice — six modules, structured for working physicians.
A key foundation for deciding when to use peptides, which peptide families to select, and for what clinical objective — taught at applied clinical depth.
- Peptide signaling cascades, receptor binding and bioavailability
- Pharmacokinetics, half-life considerations and dosing principles
- Inflammatory modulation and tissue repair peptide pathways
- Neuroprotective, metabolic and regenerative peptide mechanisms
Differentiation by peptide family, mechanism and target system — with specific applications across the five clinical focus areas of the certification.
- Regenerative, immunomodulatory and metabolic peptide profiles
- Selection criteria based on clinical indication and patient profile
- Applications in musculoskeletal repair — BPC-157, TB-500 and related peptides
- Neuroprotective peptides: cognitive enhancement and neuroregenerative support
- Metabolic optimization, longevity peptides and anti-aging applications
Key for designing comprehensive, systemic treatments — not only local interventions.
- Modulation of cytokines and micro-inflammation
- Influence on the neuroendocrine axis and pain regulation
- Optimization of energy metabolism and mitochondrial function
- Regulation of inflammation, tissue repair and systemic biological terrain
Precision and safety in delivery — covering systemic and local peptide application techniques used in clinical practice.
- Subcutaneous, intramuscular, intranasal and IV routes of administration
- Patient-specific titration, cycling schedules and dose escalation
- Reconstitution, storage, stability and compounding pharmacy standards
- Patient selection, monitoring protocols and structured clinical follow-up
Protocol design by phases — not isolated treatments. Practical application across the full spectrum of clinical indications.
- Tendon and joint injuries — acute and chronic
- Degenerative pathology and chronic persistent pain
- Sports injuries and recovery optimization
- Functional neuroregeneration and neuropathic pain
- Metabolic diseases with systemic inflammation
Analysis of synergies, contraindications and therapeutic personalization — building comprehensive regenerative treatment plans.
- Regenerative IV therapy: NAD+, glutathione and mitochondrial support
- Vitamins, amino acids and trace elements
- Interaction with conventional medications
- Advanced technology layers: photobiomodulation
- AI diagnostics, imaging analysis and objective outcome tracking
