The FDA’s Pharmacy Compounding Advisory Committee voted narrowly in July 2026 to recommend BPC-157 for the 503A Bulks List despite staff findings of insufficient safety and efficacy data, creating momentum for potential interim relief. BPC-157 was removed from Category 2 enforcement-risk status in April 2026 after nominators withdrew, but it has not entered Category 1 or gained compounding authorization. In mid-October 2026, HHS and FDA submitted an interim access policy covering certain peptides including BPC-157 to the White House Office of Management and Budget for review, which could establish temporary enforcement discretion while permanent rulemaking proceeds. Any final shift requires formal FDA action and notice-and-comment procedures that typically span months; traders are monitoring the outcome of the current White House review and subsequent agency steps for signals on timeline.
