Epithalon is a synthetic tetrapeptide studied for its potential role in longevity research, cellular health, and metabolic regulation. It has been investigated for its ability to support telomere maintenance and antioxidant activity, two processes associated with aging and cellular repair.

Unlike many peptides that are taken continuously, Epithalon is commonly used in short research cycles lasting 10–20 days, followed by extended breaks.

This cyclical approach is frequently referenced in longevity research protocols.

To prep your vial:

Add 5.0 mL bacteriostatic water

Final concentration = 10 mg/mL

Smooth, accurate dosing every time.

Fun fact:
At 10 mg/mL, 1 unit on a U-100 syringe = 100 mcg

• 3–10 mg per day in research protocols
• Cycles typically last 10–20 days
• Gradual titration → 3 mg → 5 mg

Short cycles are used instead of long-term continuous dosing.

At 10 mg/mL → 1 unit = 0.01 mL ≈ 100 mcg (U-100 insulin syringe)

Examples:

3 mg → 30 units

5 mg → 50 units

10 mg → 100 units

Before mixing:

Freeze at –20 °C (–4 °F)

After mixing:

Refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F)

Best used within 2–4 weeks

Keep away from heat, sunlight, and curious pets.

Daily Cycle Schedule

This gradual ramp helps support tolerability.

Frequency: Once daily, subcutaneous (SubQ) or intramuscular (IM).

Why short cycles?
Epithalon is typically used in 10–20 day cycles rather than continuous maintenance dosing.

Cycles may be repeated 1–2 times per year depending on research goals or protocol design.

Draw 5.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe

Inject slowly down the vial wall

Gently swirl (don’t shake like a cocktail shaker)

Label with the date

Refrigerate at 2–8 °C

This creates a 10 mg/mL concentration, making syringe math simple.

Every 10 units = 1 mg

Plan based on your cycle length.

10-day cycle (5 mg/day) → 1 vial

20-day cycle (5 mg/day) → 2 vials

1 per day

10 days → 10 syringes

20 days → 20 syringes

5 mL per vial

10-day cycle → 5 mL

20-day cycle → 10 mL

2 per injection

10 days → 20

20 days → 40

A quick hit of the essentials:

Goal: Longevity research + cellular support

Schedule: Once daily

Typical dose range: 3–10 mg

Cycle length: 10–20 days

Frequency: 1–2 cycles per year

Storage: Frozen before mixing, refrigerated after

Keep your peptide happy so it can keep you happy.

Freeze at –20 °C

Protect from moisture and light

Refrigerate at 2–8 °C

Use within 2–4 weeks

Avoid heat, sunlight, and repeated freeze-thaw cycles.

Start with a lower dose before increasing

Use short cycles rather than continuous dosing

Rotate injection sites (abdomen, thigh, upper arm)

Use a new sterile needle each time

Maintain proper refrigeration after reconstitution

Wash hands

Clean vial + skin

Draw dose, remove air bubbles

Pinch 1 inch of skin

Insert needle at 90° (or 45° if lean)

Inject slowly

Remove straight out

Dispose needle safely

Return vial to fridge

Rotate injection sites
