Video transcript
How much do peptides cost in the Philippines? Here is the research vial price list from our partner and supplier, Primara Labs. Short answer: ₱1,190 to ₱3,990 a vial, set by compound and vial size. The GLP-1s: semaglutide 15 mg is ₱1,990, tirzepatide ₱1,890, retatrutide [₱3,390 for the 20 mg vial]. Per mg, that is about ₱133, ₱126 and [₱170], and less in a 10 pack. Research vials are sold for research only, are not approved for human use, and are not the same product as registered prescription pens like Ozempic. Prescribing belongs with a licensed Philippine physician. For recovery, BPC-157 and TB-500 are ₱2,390 each. For skin, GHK-Cu is ₱1,190. NAD+ is ₱2,590. CJC-1295 with Ipamorelin, ₱2,390. Tesamorelin, ₱3,390. Semax, Selank and DSIP are ₱1,990 each, and PT-141 is ₱1,790. In a 10 pack, BPC-157 drops from ₱2,390 to ₱1,458 a vial. Three things set the price: vial size, so compare per mg; batch testing; and local stock, with no international leg and no customs. Every vial order includes bacteriostatic water, syringes and alcohol pads. Metro Manila gets same-day delivery before noon on weekdays, and J&T covers the provinces. Delivery is free above ₱10,000, and there is a 60-day money-back guarantee. Read the full price index on Philippines Peptides, then see the catalogue at Primara Labs and order on WhatsApp. [Figures in square brackets corrected on 3 November 2026 from Primara's current catalogue: the narration gives the price of the 15 mg retatrutide vial, retired on 12 October 2026.]
