Pinealon dosage

Pinealon is a three-amino-acid Khavinson peptide, Glu-Asp-Arg, studied by its inventing group in cells, animals and small uncontrolled groups of elderly patients. No dose-finding study exists and no trial is registered anywhere. It is sold as 20 mg vials or capsules. Community use is 10 to 20 mg a day by mouth for 10 to 20 days, two or three times a year; injected use is rare and undocumented.

Pinealon dose to units chart

20 mg vial + 2 mL bacteriostatic water = 10 mg/mL (100 mcg per unit on a U-100 insulin syringe). 20 mg + 2 mL = 10 mg/mL, so 1 mg = 0.1 mL = 10 units. That is the math only; most people take the vial contents orally and there is no human injection dose to copy.

Side effects

Before you start. Human dosing is not established. The only human data is from the inventing group, uncontrolled and small (a 32-patient cohort is the one most often cited), and no independent group has replicated it. The cell and animal work is on neuron survival and serotonin expression, not cognition in people. Not medical advice. Talk to a clinician and start low.

Pinealon dosage questions

Pinealon dosage?

There is no tested human dose. Community use is 10 to 20 mg a day by mouth, usually one 20 mg capsule in the morning, for 10 to 20 days, two or three times a year. Nobody has compared doses.

Do you inject pinealon?

Rarely. Russian reports describe clinic injections of the bioregulator peptides, but no published dose for Pinealon by injection exists. The sold form is capsules or a 20 mg vial that most people take orally.

Pinealon vs epitalon?

Both are short Khavinson peptides linked to the pineal gland. Epitalon has decades of Russian extract studies behind a 10 mg injection course; Pinealon has cell and animal work plus small uncontrolled patient reports. People stack them, one course each, but there is no data on the pair.

Does pinealon improve memory?

The inventing group reports better memory and attention in older patients, from uncontrolled series. No independent or placebo-controlled trial has tested it. Treat any effect as unproven.
