## Short answer

As of 23 September 2026, none of the research peptides searched on the FDA Philippines verification portal is registered, and 6 were not searched. Semaglutide and tirzepatide are registered only as branded prescription medicines (Ozempic, Wegovy, Rybelsus and Mounjaro). A research-grade vial is not a registered medicine.
