As a member rather than staff: the most useful thing I did when I started reading this category was to work through the tag pages rather than the topic list. The topic list shows you what is recent. The tags show you what is settled.

Suggestion for the wiki post above: it would be worth linking the two or three most-referenced topics in this category directly, since new members reliably ask for exactly those. Happy to make the edit myself if nobody objects, with a revision note.

Allergy to the specific compound: true allergy is rare but possible. Any prior allergic reaction to the same compound or to structurally similar peptides warrants caution.

outline_first, post #8: Somebody's condition being on a list does not settle the decision, and somebody's condition being absent from one does not either. Happy to be the one who is wrong here if it settles the question. Go to post

Building on post #8 rather than restating it.

The section of the product information covering special warnings is usually longer and more useful than the contraindications list itself.

The rule of thumb is fine; the edge cases are where it earns its keep.

Reading the contraindications section of the actual product information takes two minutes and answers most questions asked here.
