Disclosure: Purgo Labs is our affiliate partner; we earn nothing from Astro Peptides. Scores come from the public rubric, which has no partnership input.
Research use only. Compound Review scores vendors on documentation — laboratory certificates, lot records, pricing and company identity. Nothing on this page is guidance on human or veterinary use, dosing or health outcomes.

FlagNo certificate of analysis is published
the 'Product documentation' page asks buyers to contact the team for available certificates for their batch. No laboratory is named anywhere on the site. The terms and contact pages name no company, address or phone, only 'Astro Peptides USA'. Payment methods are not stated before checkout. Finnrick's independent buys pass 10 of 29 classifiable tests (CJC-1295 19%, BPC-157 39%; ranked #475 of 489; latest 5 May 2025). A separate store-review platform, Pep Review Pro, shows 4.7 across about 2,000 reviews on the vendor's store page; Trustpilot, where the vendor does not control which reviews appear, shows 3.0.

Astro Peptides appears in 9 of our compound rankings. Each ranking orders every scored vendor that sells the compound by rubric score, then verified price per mg.
1 Nov 20264/10 — first assessment (rubric v2); not awarded: named-lab, lab-hosted, per-lot and net-content (no certificate published; documentation only on request and no lab named), review-base (Trustpilot 3.0 across 173 reviews), identity (no legal entity, address or phone in the terms or contact pages)
Purgo Labs: the caveat
Smaller independent review base than several competitors (101 reviews). The catalog is peptide-focused, so researchers also working with SARMs or broader research chemicals will need a second supplier.

Where the evidence points
Where the evidence points
Purgo Labs 10/10
We earn nothing from Astro Peptides. Purgo Labs holds every rubric point — certificates checkable at the lab, measured net content per lot — and is cheaper after codes on 7 of 7 like-for-like vials.
Purgo Labs, on the evidence: 10/10 rubric points against 4/10. Astro Peptides is stronger on 4 points listed below. Every point is a fact you can check on either vendor's site; both are scored by the same published rubric.
Is Astro Peptides legit?
Astro Peptides scores 4/10 on our rubric, has an independently viewable rating of 3.0 (173 reviews), and does not name its testing laboratory.
