Peptide Therapy Timelines

Meaning

Peptide therapy timelines describe the expected duration of a full course of treatment and the anticipated schedule for the onset and eventual plateau of therapeutic effects following the initiation of a peptide protocol. Unlike many small-molecule drugs, which often have rapid onset, peptide effects frequently require several weeks or months to fully manifest as they rely on stimulating complex, adaptive biological processes like tissue repair, cellular regeneration, or sustained hormonal axis modulation. Clinicians must proactively manage patient expectations regarding this critical temporal dimension of treatment.
