starting a nootropics/research chemical/peptide company?

Original post in this thread

I like nootropics, have taken a bunch, and would like to start a company that sells them. But I can't seem to figure out what the legal status is of a lot of them. For example, its legal to buy piracetam for personal use but you can't put it in an energy drink.

Companies can sell research chemicals as long as they're not for human consumption, but its pretty obvious that a lot of sites do exactly this. How is that legal? Aren't they scared of getting shut down/arrested?

Is there a legal way to do this with a clear head and not have to worry about going to jail and losing everything? Obviously a lot of them have warnings that say, "not for human consumption" but its pretty clear that's what people are doing.

How do they get around this? What's the legal red tape regarding research chemicals and nootropics? Would love to hear from vendors and/or lawyers that may know a thing or two about this. thanks

Lots of people do lots of things that may or may not be perfectly legal. That's about as specific of a response you are likely to get here.

Dipeptide analogs of piracetam, noopept, sulpiride,... exhibiting far superior potency and specificity to their putative mechanisms.

They are not talking about analogs of noopept. Noopept IS the analog they are discussing. The other compounds are not analogs of piracetam, either. They took inspiration from some of the functional groups, but they are V

I am not one for the whole "megadosing" thing that a lot of people try. However, I am human, and I do make mistakes. That is what happened yesterday. I was reading through Russian studies on SEMAX, and got myself confuse

Our card processor randomly decided to stop processing payments. At first they told us that it was the peptides, and that if we took them down, they would lift the hold. After we complied, they decided to then tell us to

Here's the thing, I want to avoid giving my own anecdotes for a bit, to prevent confirmation bias. I don't want people seeing how I react, then convincing themselves they react the same way. I want people to try it thems

Negative. This is a brand new peptide we developed with no human clinical research, or any research of any kind. It should be treated as a research compound, and should not be purchased based on anecdotal effect statemen
