Buying guide
Buy Tesamorelin in the UK
What tesamorelin is, what its published trial record actually covers, and what a UK buyer can verify before ordering.
The short version
- Two strengths, 10 mg and 20 mg. Boxes of 10 vials from $15.57 per vial. Every box carries a batch-specific Certificate of Analysis from Janoshik or Freedom Diagnostic. Dispatched from the UK, tracked, no minimum order.
- A GHRH analogue, not a growth hormone. Tesamorelin is a 44-residue analogue of growth-hormone-releasing hormone, which is a different class of molecule from HGH itself. Anyone comparing tesamorelin peptide UK suppliers is comparing the same compound; what differs between them is the documentation behind the vial, not the chemistry.
Buying
What to establish before you order
Points a UK buyer can check independently. Nothing here is a claim about what tesamorelin does, or a statement that it is safe or effective for any purpose.
An unusually complete trial record
Tesamorelin is a growth-hormone-releasing factor analogue, and unlike most compounds sold as research peptides it has been through phase 3. The trials were conducted in HIV-infected patients with excess abdominal fat and are published in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology and Metabolism.1 A follow-up analysis examined the relationship between visceral fat reduction and metabolic markers.2 That is a far stronger evidence base than most of this catalogue, and it is worth knowing it was built in one specific patient population rather than in healthy volunteers.
What a Certificate of Analysis is worth
Every box ships with a batch-specific COA. Batch-specific is the part that matters: a certificate for a different lot says nothing about the vial in your hand. Check the batch number on the certificate against the number printed on your box.
Why the strength matters to the price comparison
Tesamorelin is one of the more expensive compounds in the catalogue, and the gap between 10 mg and 20 mg per vial is large. A supplier quoting a single headline price without saying which strength it refers to is not giving you a comparable number. Both strengths are published per vial and per box.
What UK dispatch changes
Material shipped from outside the UK can be held at customs, inspected or returned. We dispatch from the UK, tracked, which removes that step.

Common questions
Is tesamorelin approved in the UK?
It holds approval in the United States for a specific indication in HIV-associated lipodystrophy. It is not licensed in the UK, and material supplied here is research-grade rather than a medicine. There is no lawful route to supply it for human use in the UK.
Is tesamorelin legal in the UK?
Approved and legal are two different questions, and they get conflated constantly. Selling a research chemical to a laboratory is not the same act as supplying a medicine, and tesamorelin holds no UK marketing authorisation that would make the second lawful. Whether tesamorelin is legal in the UK for what you intend depends entirely on that intent: as laboratory research material, yes; as something administered to a person, no, and nothing on this site should be read as supporting it. Our guide to peptide legality in the UK sets out the distinction in full.
What strengths does it come in?
10 mg and 20 mg, each in a box of ten vials, priced per vial and per box on the product page.
Is there a minimum order?
No. One box of ten vials is a complete order.
