5-Amino-1MQ

NNMT inhibitor

Metabolic
Community convention
...

Not a peptide — a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor, and the route it is actually used by is oral capsule. Injectable use is far less standardized and community figures for it disagree by roughly tenfold; the 500 mcg default here is the low end of that spread, chosen deliberately. Oral and subcutaneous amounts are not interchangeable and cannot be converted between routes, and no human study has compared them. All figures are community reference points, not a validated dose.

Storage & handling

Before reconstitution

Lyophilized vials keep at 2–8 °C (36–46 °F). For long-term storage, −20 °C is fine. Keep them out of direct light.

After reconstitution

With bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 2–8 °C and use within 28 days. With plain sterile water there is no preservative — discard within 24 hours.

Never freeze reconstituted vials

Freeze–thaw cycles break down peptide structure. Refrigerate only once liquid.

Mix gently

Aim the bacteriostatic water down the vial wall and roll gently to dissolve. Do not shake.

One sterile needle per injection

New syringe and needle every time. Swab the stopper, rotate injection sites, never share vials.

Verify what is in the vial

A calculator cannot check purity, sterility or identity. Ask for a current Certificate of Analysis (HPLC/MS).

Read before you dose

  • These figures are community-reported conventions, not FDA-approved dosing. Where a compound is an approved drug, the approved prescribing information governs.
  • Pep-Tidy cannot verify purity, sterility or identity of anything in your vial — ask your supplier for a current Certificate of Analysis (HPLC/MS).
  • Double-check every calculation yourself before drawing. Use a new sterile syringe and needle each time, and never share vials.
