Start with the category
Anabolic-androgenic steroids act through androgen signalling, while peptide medicines and research peptides cover many unrelated biological systems. SARMs are a separate group of receptor modulators, and GLP-1-based medicines belong to metabolic treatment rather than the steroid or peptide-recovery categories used in forum shorthand.
Status belongs to a specific product
A molecule may be an approved medicine, an investigational candidate, a discontinued programme or a catalogue product with no authorised use. Those labels should be recorded precisely. A familiar compound name does not establish the identity, concentration or manufacturing quality of an individual product.
Build the record in layers
A useful reference page separates mechanism, human evidence, approval status, sporting rules, local law and product testing. Mixing those layers produces confident-sounding conclusions that the underlying evidence does not support.
