Peptides & compounding

Start a peptide business in the UAE.

The demand is real, and so is the regulation. We build the licensed structure that lets you prescribe, compound, and fulfil peptide treatments legally in the UAE.

DHA-licensed telehealth front end Licensed compounding partners EDE classification handled

The peptide opportunity, done legally.

Metabolic medicine, longevity, and aesthetic indications have made peptides the fastest-growing treatment category in the region. Patients are asking for them, clinics want to offer them, and brands want a route into the market. The demand side of this business is not the problem.

The operators who win in the UAE are the ones with the licensed structure: a DHA-licensed telehealth operation in front, licensed clinicians prescribing, licensed compounding pharmacy partners and a registered supply chain behind them. Everyone else is either locked out of the market or exposed to it.

We build that structure as one turnkey engagement, under our own importer, warehouse, and MAH credentials, as a licensed partner, not a paperwork consultancy.

The legal architecture.

Six licensed layers. Remove any one of them and the business stops being legal.

DHA telehealth licence

The clinical front end of the business: a DHA telehealth facility licence, taken through the Sheryan portal from application to Active.

Licensed prescribers

DHA-licensed clinicians consult before every prescription. No consultation, no prescription, and nothing on the platform reads like a shop.

Licensed compounding pharmacy partners

Compounded preparations are made by MOHAP-licensed compounding pharmacies, against individual prescriptions from your clinicians.

EDE classification & registration

The EDE classifies each product case by case. Classification is always step one, and it sets the registration route for every product you offer.

Importation & cold chain

Our own importer credentials, EDE import permits, and GDP medical warehouse bring registered products in under cold chain and hold them compliantly.

Licensed distribution & fulfilment

Prescriptions are dispensed and delivered through licensed pharmacy and distribution channels only, with cold chain held to the door where products need it.

From concept to first prescription.

Approximately 45 to 60 days to an active DHA licence, subject to authority response times, with the supply chain built in parallel.

Starting a peptide business, answered.

Is a peptide business legal in the UAE?
Yes, through the licensed pathway. A compliant peptide business runs as a DHA-licensed telehealth operation with licensed clinicians in front, licensed compounding pharmacy partners and a registered supply chain behind it, and every product classified by the EDE before it is offered. What the law does not allow is supplying peptides outside that structure. We build the whole structure as one turnkey engagement.
Who licenses peptide compounding in the UAE?
Compounding pharmacies are licensed by MOHAP, which retained compounding pharmacy licensing under the current law. The telehealth operation in front of them is licensed by the DHA through the Sheryan portal. A compliant peptide business connects the two: DHA-licensed clinicians prescribe, and MOHAP-licensed compounding pharmacies prepare against those individual prescriptions.
Do I need my own compounding lab?
No. Compounded preparations are made by licensed compounding pharmacy partners against prescriptions from your clinicians, so you launch without building a facility. If you later want your own compounding pharmacy, that is a separate MOHAP licensing project, and we can scope it once the business is trading.
Can I sell BPC-157 or GLP-1s?
That depends on each product's classification. The EDE classifies every product case by case as a biological medicinal product, a conventional pharmaceutical, or not eligible, and there is no blanket rule for peptides. Whatever the outcome, supply is prescription-only through licensed clinicians after a consultation. Send us your product list and we confirm the pathway per product.
How long until launch?
The telehealth build typically reaches an active DHA licence in approximately 45 to 60 days, subject to authority response times. The supply chain workstream, classification, compounding partners, and permits, runs in parallel so fulfilment is ready when the licence goes Active.
What does it cost?
Every build is priced as one fixed, all-inclusive quote for your specific model and product list. Request a quotation with the treatments you want to offer and we respond within 48 hours with the legal pathway per product, the build plan, and the quote.
