Gray-market peptide safety intercept
A member asks how to add a "research-only" vial they found online — the agent declines to coach it and puts a clinician between them and the bottle.
What it does
Peptide-therapy patients sit one search away from a gray market of "research use only" vials sold with no guarantee of purity or dosing. When a member raises sourcing an unlisted compound elsewhere, stacking an over-protocol dose, or buying outside the program, a generic assistant either answers the question helpfully or ignores the risk — both of which leave the patient alone with an unverified bottle and the program carrying the liability. The agent treats unsafe-sourcing intent as its own risk signal, separate from any symptom: it recognizes the intent, declines to instruct or validate it, and routes the member to the prescribing clinician with the context attached. It never coaches a non-prescribed compound and never supplies a dose for one.
How it works
- 1Trigger. a member message that signals sourcing or dosing outside the program — a "research-only" vendor, an unlisted or non-prescribed compound, or an over-protocol dose — surfaced behaviorally from the conversation, not from a form.
- 2Decision. the agent classifies the intent against a sourcing-risk policy rather than a symptom rail; an off-program compound or over-protocol ask is a hard non-coach, distinct from a routine technique or side-effect question it would normally handle.
- 3Action. it declines to instruct or affirm the choice, gives only bounded "your clinician needs to weigh in before anything like this" language, and opens a routed handoff to the prescriber with the member's request captured.
- 4Follow-through. the intent and the handoff write back to the member's memory so the pattern is visible to the care team; the clinician's response closes the loop, and the agent never resumes coaching the compound on its own.
Configuration
How the agent is wired for this use case.
- Messaging channel · recognize the sourcing-risk intent and reply with bounded, non-coaching language
- Knowledge base · match the request against the program's approved-compound and protocol list to confirm it is off-program
- Clinical/EHR system · open a routed handoff to the prescribing clinician with the member's request attached
- Memory store · log the intent and the handoff against the member's history for the care team
What you need
The inputs this use case runs on. Your channels stay yours; the agent supplies the judgment.
Signals
in-conversation mentions of off-program sourcing, unlisted compounds, or over-protocol dosing
Data
the program's approved-compound and protocol list, the member's prescribed regimen, persistent member memory, consent state
Guardrails
sourcing-risk policy with conservative defaults; the agent never instructs, doses, or affirms a non-prescribed compound; detect-then-escalate only, no dose advice; judge gating on every message; full audit trail of the intent and the handoff
Metrics it moves
- safe-escalation-rateup, as unsafe-sourcing intent reliably reaches a clinician instead of being answered or ignored
- contact-ratedown on the volume the clinician would otherwise spend untangling an off-program request after the fact
- csatup, since the member feels protected rather than either enabled or stonewalled
