FDA warning letter on file
Maximus Health, Inc. dba Maximus. MARCS-CMS 730095, issued 2026-06-08 by the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER).
FDA states it reviewed maximustribe.com (FDA Establishment Identifier 3032037948) in May 2026 and found the site offering compounded semaglutide and tirzepatide products with claims ("Clinically studied ingredients," "Clinically studied to help patients…," "Proven to lose weight effectively", and "FDA approved pharmacies") that FDA alleges falsely imply the compounded product is FDA-approved-equivalent when it is not. FDA states this makes the products misbranded under FDCA sections 502(a) and 502(bb) [21 U.S.C. §§ 352(a), 352(bb)]. Concerns Maximus' compounded GLP-1 marketing (it also sells weight-loss medication through the same account), not its growth hormone peptides.
