Thymosin Beta-4 (also called TB-500) is a peptide that helps the body heal tissue faster, calm inflammation, and repair muscles, tendons, ligaments, and skin. It's popular for recovering from injuries and wounds.
Cognitive
pe2
Longevity
PE-22-28 is an experimental peptide being studied as a fast-acting option for depression, anxiety, and brain protection. It's thought to work by boosting serotonin activity and encouraging new brain cell growth.
Cognitive
dih
Longevity
Dihexa is a nootropic peptide that may help the brain form new connections between neurons, supporting memory and learning. It's typically taken orally or applied to the skin and is reported to be far more potent than the body's natural BDNF.
Longevity
liv
Immunity
Livagen is a short peptide studied for helping cells 'turn back on' genes related to immune and heart health, which may support longevity. It's used alongside other similar peptides to support immune function and slow age-related decline.
Longevity
ves
Vesilute is a peptide designed to support bladder health by helping the tissue lining the bladder repair itself. It's taken in short courses, similar to other Russian-developed peptides, and may aid recovery from urinary issues.
Metabolic
mot
Metabolic
MOTS-c is a mitochondrial peptide studied for metabolic health and exercise capacity. Weekly totals of 5–10 mg are typical, split into two or three injections.
Longevity
ss3
Metabolic
SS-31 supports the mitochondria, the energy-producing parts of your cells.
Healing
cart
Longevity
Cartalax is used to support joint health and help repair and regenerate cartilage.
Longevity
epi
Immunity
Epitalon may help activate an enzyme called telomerase, which is linked to cell aging, and is typically used in short cycles rather than continuously. A full cycle usually totals around 100 mg.
Skin
ghk
Longevity
GHK-Cu is a copper peptide that helps repair and regenerate skin and hair. Most protocols start at 1 mg daily for the first two weeks, then move up to 2 mg, with a 3 to 4 week break between cycles.
Longevity
glu
Immunity
Glutathione is a powerful antioxidant that supports detoxification, helps calm inflammation, and can improve skin health. Keep the reconstituted vial refrigerated and protected from light, and use it within 2 to 3 weeks, since it breaks down faster than most peptides.
Longevity
nad
Metabolic
NAD+ is a molecule your cells need to produce energy. Most protocols start around 20 mg and build up toward 100 mg over several injections, since injecting too much too fast commonly causes flushing, nausea, or a wave-like sensation. Starting lower and titrating up reduces this.
Immunity
thy
Immunity
Thymalin helps restore balance to the immune system and is given as an injection under the skin.
Immunity
vil
Immunity
Vilon is a gentle immune-system support peptide given as an injection under the skin.
Healing
wol
Longevity
This combines BPC-157 and TB-500, two well-known healing peptides, to speed up tissue recovery from injuries. Doses are listed per peptide, so a 500 mcg dose means 500 mcg of each, or 1 mg total.
Healing
tb5
Longevity
TB-500 helps regenerate tissue and reduce inflammation. The 4–6 week schedule is a loading phase; after that, protocols typically drop to 2–4 mg every one to two weeks for maintenance.
Immunity
thymo
Immunity
Thymosin Alpha 1 is often called the 'BPC-157 of the immune system' because it's so widely used to support healthy immune function.
Longevity
hum
Longevity
Humanin helps protect cells, particularly by supporting healthy mitochondria.

Frequently asked questions
What is a peptide dosage calculator?
A peptide dosage calculator is a free tool that converts your vial size, bacteriostatic water volume, and target dose into an exact syringe draw volume. Instead of doing the reconstitution math by hand, you enter three inputs and instantly get the concentration of your solution and how many milliliters or syringe units to draw. This calculator works for single peptide compounds and multi-peptide blends.
How do I calculate peptide dosage from a vial?
To calculate your peptide dose, divide the total peptide content of your vial in micrograms by the volume of bacteriostatic water you added in milliliters. This gives you your solution concentration in mcg/mL. Then divide your target dose by that concentration to get your draw volume. For example, a 5mg (5,000 mcg) vial reconstituted with 2mL of BAC water gives a concentration of 2,500 mcg/mL. A 250 mcg dose would require drawing 0.1mL. This calculator automates all of those steps instantly.
How much Bacteriostatic water should I add to a peptide vial?
Most people add 2mL to 3mL of bacteriostatic water per vial, but the right amount depends on the dose you want to draw and the syringe size you are using. Adding 1mL to a 5mg vial gives you a concentration of 5,000 mcg/mL, making each dose very small in volume. Adding 2mL gives you 2,500 mcg/mL, which is easier to measure on a standard insulin syringe. A general guideline is to choose a volume that puts your typical dose somewhere between 10 and 30 units on a U-100 syringe. Use the calculator above to test different water volumes and find what works for your dose.
How are peptides different from proteins?
Both are made of amino acids, but peptides are much smaller than proteins. Because of their tiny size, peptides can act like tiny messengers in the body, sending specific signals to your cells to tell them exactly what to do.
