## The short answer

**Yes, you can get sermorelin through telehealth in Arizona if a provider decides it is appropriate.** Arizona's medical practice law requires an [examination or an established doctor-patient relationship](https://www.azleg.gov/ars/32/01401.htm) before prescribing, and says that examination may happen through telehealth with an appropriate clinical evaluation. Astra operates in all 50 states, and your provider confirms availability during your visit. Compounded sermorelin is not FDA-approved.

**Considering sermorelin?** A licensed provider reviews your answers and decides whether it is appropriate.

## Two Arizona rules, and why they help you

| Rule | What it requires | Why it helps |
|---|---|---|
| [A.R.S. 32-1401](https://www.azleg.gov/ars/32/01401.htm) | Prescribing without first examining the person, or an existing relationship, is unprofessional conduct for Arizona medical licensees. Telehealth exams count | Someone has to evaluate you before you get a prescription |
| [A.R.S. 36-3602](https://www.azleg.gov/ars/36/03602.htm) | The treating provider must get your informed consent before delivering care through telehealth, verbally or in writing, with some exceptions | You should know how care works before it starts |

## What a research vial skips

There is no examination and no consent process when you order a research-labelled vial. FDA's [December 2024 warning letter](https://www.fda.gov/inspections-compliance-enforcement-and-criminal-investigations/warning-letters/xcel-research-llc-694608-12102024) treated sermorelin sold that way as an unapproved new drug.

## Common questions

### Can I get sermorelin in Phoenix, Scottsdale or Tucson?
Yes, the online process is the same across Arizona. Your provider confirms availability for your location during your visit.

### Do I have to go to a clinic for the exam?
Not necessarily. [A.R.S. 32-1401](https://www.azleg.gov/ars/32/01401.htm) allows it through telehealth with a clinical evaluation appropriate for you. Your provider decides if that is enough.

### Is sermorelin legal in Arizona?
A prescription after an appropriate evaluation is the established route. See [sermorelin's FDA status](/sermorelin/guides/fda-approved-legal/). This is general information, not legal advice.
