Epitalon (Epithalon) (10 mg Vial) Dosage Protocol

Epitalon Dosage Chart

Epitalon is dosed at 5 mg daily via subcutaneous injection in educational protocols. A Epithalon reconstituted with bacteriostatic water yields about 5 mg/mL. This information is for research and educational use only.

Reconstitute: Add 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 5 mg/mL concentration.

Typical daily dose: 5,000 mcg (5 mg) once daily for 20 consecutive days.

Easy measuring: At 5 mg/mL, 1 unit = 0.01 mL = 50 mcg on a U-100 insulin syringe.

Storage: Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); avoid freeze–thaw cycles.

Epitalon (Epithalon) dosage protocols center on this synthetic tetrapeptide (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly) developed from pineal gland research for its geroprotective potential[1]. Epitalon activates telomerase to promote telomere elongation, supports healthy melatonin production for improved sleep and circadian rhythm regulation, and has demonstrated lifespan extension in animal models[2][3]. Human studies suggest potential benefits for longevity, cardiovascular health, and physiological function in older adults[4]. This educational protocol presents a once-daily subcutaneous approach using a practical dilution for clear insulin-syringe measurements.

Standard Protocol (2 mL = 5 mg/mL)

Days 1–20 (Cycle On)

5,000 mcg (5 mg)

100 units (1.00 mL)

Weeks 4–26 (Cycle Off)

0 mcg

—

Frequency: Inject once daily subcutaneously, preferably in the evening or at bedtime to synergize with natural melatonin rhythms[3]. Complete 20 consecutive days, then observe a 4–6 month off-cycle before repeating (typically 2 cycles per year)[5].

Reconstitution Steps

Draw 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe.

Inject slowly down the vial wall; avoid foaming.

Gently swirl/roll until dissolved (do not shake).

Label and refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F), protected from light.

Supplies Needed

Plan based on a 20-day daily protocol at 5 mg/day.

Peptide Vials (Epitalon, 10 mg each):

20-day cycle (5 mg/day): 10 vials (each vial yields 2 doses)

Insulin Syringes (U-100):

Per cycle: 20 syringes (1/day)

Bacteriostatic Water (10 mL bottles): Use 2.0 mL per vial for reconstitution.

20-day cycle (10 vials): 20 mL → 2 × 10 mL bottles

Alcohol Swabs: One for the vial stopper + one for the injection site each day.

Per cycle: 40 swabs (2/day) → recommend 1 × 100-count box
