AI chatbot Answers from this site's articles, with sources. Software, not a person and not a doctor.

What Sergeant Pep can and can't do

It can

  • Answer from PeptideBasics101 articles and catalogued trials, and link the page each answer came from
  • Say "not found" rather than guess, though it can still make mistakes
  • Report doses only as a trial, study or label reported them, with the source
  • Answer health questions with what studies found and the side effects, interactions and warnings on record, with a reminder that only a doctor or pharmacist can say what applies to you
  • Answer in plain English or scientific language, matching your toggle

It won't

  • Choose a dose for you or anyone else, diagnose, or tell you to start or stop anything
  • Explain how to mix, reconstitute or inject anything, or anything about drug tests
  • Recommend, compare or locate sellers
  • Answer questions the site's sources do not cover
Full notice

Sergeant Pep is software. It is an automated assistant built on a large language model. It can be wrong, out of date, misread a source, cite the wrong page, or fail to refuse something it should. Nothing it says is medical, veterinary, legal or professional advice, and nothing it says is intended for human or veterinary use without direct doctor supervision, despite sources being from formal clinical trials.

It only knows this site. Answers are drawn from PeptideBasics101 articles and the trials catalogued on them, which are summaries of public information collected for general awareness, research and entertainment only. Statements have not been reviewed or endorsed by the FDA or any regulatory body.

Doses it quotes are historical facts about trials, as the cited study reported them. They are not recommendations. Do not use trial doses to determine dosing for yourself, another person, or an animal.

Do not tell it about yourself. Do not enter names, health conditions, medications, or anything you would not post publicly. Questions are sent to Anthropic, the AI provider, to generate the answer. Retention and your rights are in the privacy section of our Terms and the Consumer Health Data Privacy Policy.

In an emergency, call 911 (or 988 for thoughts of suicide or self-harm, US and Canada). Sergeant Pep cannot help in an emergency.

Use the sources, not the sergeant. Every answer links its page. The page links its primary sources. Read those.
