Medical Training AIPeptide Therapy Fundamentals
You'll be able to evaluate common peptide protocols used in longevity and hormone-optimization practice and discuss their evidence, mechanisms, and monitoring considerations with patients.
What this track covers
This track covers the major peptide classes used in longevity-focused practice: telomere-targeting peptides, growth hormone secretagogues, tissue-repair peptides, cognitive peptides, and immune-modulating peptides. It emphasizes mechanism, published evidence, patient selection, and monitoring rather than specific dosing recommendations.
What you will practice
- Distinguish growth hormone secretagogues by mechanism and receptor target
- Identify what published evidence does and does not support for a given peptide class
- Recognize red flags in patient history that warrant caution before considering peptide therapy
- Discuss monitoring and follow-up considerations for patients on peptide protocols
- Differentiate marketed 'anti-aging' claims from what the literature actually demonstrates
Simulator scenario
A patient on a self-sourced peptide regimen presents for a wellness visit asking for guidance on safety and monitoring.
Board question topics
- Mechanism of growth hormone secretagogues
- Evidence quality for tissue-repair peptides
- Regulatory status of compounded peptides
- Patient screening before peptide therapy discussions
