Orders are handed off to the carrier within 24 hours. FedEx 2 Day and UPS 2nd Day Air both deliver within about 48 hours and are free on orders $150+ (a flat $14 below that). Overnight options (FedEx Overnight / UPS Next Day Air) arrive the next calendar day when ordered before 1:00pm EST, and USPS Express (for PO boxes and rural areas) arrives within 2-3 days.

Through independent third-party analytical testing.

Lyophilized peptides should be stored at -20°C, protected from light and moisture, for long-term stability. Once reconstituted, keep refrigerated at 2–8°C and use within the recommended time frame to preserve potency.
