FDA 503B GLP-1 Comment Window Two Weeks From Closure: June 29 Deadline Will End Large-Scale Compounding of Semaglutide, Tirzepatide, and Liraglutide
The FDA's April 30 proposed rule to permanently exclude semaglutide, tirzepatide, and liraglutide from the 503B bulks list enters its final two weeks of public comment on June 15. The 60-day comment window closes June 29, after which the agency will weigh comments and issue final rulemaking. Once finalized, the rule will prohibit 503B outsourcing facilities from bulk-compounding these GLP-1 molecules under any circumstance, including future shortage designation. The 503A pathway through licensed pharmacies remains intact ahead of the July 23-24 PCAC peptide-compounding advisory meeting, but the trajectory for large-scale GLP-1 compounding is fixed. Telehealth platforms (Hims & Hers, LifeMD, others) had already migrated to branded supply via Novo and Lilly partnerships since Q1 2026.
