Compounding pharmacy response time test for compounded supply: I email customer service at odd hours to test responsiveness. A pharmacy that can't answer questions promptly is a red flag.
My current pharmacy: average response time 2 hours. They answered my questions about storage conditions thoroughly and professionally.

Compounding pharmacy red flag checklist for compounded supply — if ANY of these apply, find a different source:
- No verifiable physical address
- No pharmacist available for consultation
- COA not available or clearly template/fake
- Prices dramatically below market ($30-40/month = suspicious)
- No prescription required
- Ships without cold pack or temperature control
- No batch/lot numbers on product labeling
- Pushes "research use only" products for human injection
Your health depends on product quality. Don't cut corners on source verification.

I have been on both brand and compounded, and in the context of compounded supply, my experience has been equivalent with both. The key is finding a reliable 503B pharmacy with independent testing.
