KPV is a prescription therapy used for gut and inflammatory support.

Yes. KPV is a compounded peptide that requires a valid prescription from a licensed provider. A telehealth consultation and medical intake are required before dispensing to ensure KPV is appropriate for your health history, goals, and current medications.

KPV is generally well-tolerated at therapeutic doses. Mild GI symptoms including bloating or loose stool have been reported in a small number of patients during initial oral dosing, which typically resolves as the body adjusts. Topical formulations may cause transient skin irritation at the application site. Report any unusual or persistent symptoms to your provider.

KPV is not appropriate for patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, as safety data in these populations is insufficient. Patients with a history of melanoma or hormone-sensitive cancers should not use KPV without thorough provider evaluation. Those with active systemic infections require individualized provider review before starting. KPV is not indicated for patients under 18. Disclose your full medical history and current medications before starting treatment.

Formal drug interaction studies for KPV have not been conducted. Patients on immunosuppressive medications, corticosteroids, or biologic agents for autoimmune conditions should disclose concomitant use with their provider, as anti-inflammatory effects may be additive. Those on antibiotics or antifungals should discuss concurrent use given KPV's antimicrobial activity. Always provide a complete medication list before beginning treatment.

Patients with a history of melanoma should not use KPV without thorough oncological and provider evaluation. Those with IBD, Crohn's disease, or ulcerative colitis may be strong candidates but require provider supervision. Patients with active autoimmune conditions on immunomodulatory therapy require careful review before adding KPV. Your provider requires a complete medical history before prescribing.
