Dosing & Reconstitution Guide

A single practical dilution with accurate once-daily dosing, step by step

Standard / Gradual Approach (3 mL = ~1.67 mg/mL)

Reconstitute: Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water to one 5 mg vial → final concentration ~1.67 mg/mL (1,667 mcg/mL).

Typical dose: 100–300 mcg per dose, 1–3× daily on an empty stomach, raised gradually over a 12-week course.

Easy measuring: At ~1.67 mg/mL, 1 unit ≈ 16.7 mcg on a U-100 syringe, so 100 mcg ≈ 6 units and 300 mcg ≈ 18 units — small, readable volumes on the U-100 scale.

Storage: Lyophilized: store at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F) and do not freeze the mixed solution.

01Cortexin — frequently asked questions

Wipe the stopper with an alcohol swab, then inject your bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial. Let it sit and gently swirl until dissolved — never shake. Store the mixed vial in the refrigerator and draw doses with an insulin syringe. Use the calculator above to turn any dose into syringe units. There is no single correct amount — more water simply spreads the same 10 mg of peptide across a larger volume, which makes small doses easier to measure accurately. 1 to 3 mL per vial is typical. Enter your chosen volume in the calculator above to see the resulting concentration and syringe units. On a U-100 insulin syringe, 100 units equal 1 mL, so 1 unit equals 0.01 mL. The calculator above converts your draw volume into these units automatically so you can measure without doing the math by hand. Keep the reconstituted vial refrigerated at roughly 2 to 8 degrees Celsius, away from light, and avoid freezing it. Reconstituted research peptides are generally used within a few weeks. Always follow the specific guidance supplied with your product. Divide the vial strength of 10 mg by the amount you use per injection. The calculator above reports this as "doses per vial" the moment you enter a dose. No. Cortexin is sold strictly for laboratory and research purposes and is not approved by the FDA or other regulators for human use.

Research context

Read sources and limitations before applying a claim.

How should Sermorelin be handled in a research setting?

As a lyophilized powder, it is reconstituted with sterile or bacteriostatic water using gentle technique (swirl, do not shake), stored cold and dark, and protected from freeze-thaw cycles — and, because its DPP-4-sensitive structure makes it relatively fragile, care with temperature and timing matters more than for hardier peptides.3 Handling quality preserves activity but has no bearing on the unresolved questions of long-term benefit and safety.

What is the strongest human evidence so far?

The NADPARK phase I trial (30 patients, 1,000 mg oral NR for 30 days) showed that NR was well tolerated and raised cerebral NAD+ in a subset of participants, with exploratory metabolic and mild clinical signals in that responder subgroup.1 The NR-SAFE trial (20 patients, 3,000 mg NR daily for 4 weeks) confirmed good short-term tolerability at a high dose.2 Both are small, short, and primarily safety-focused; neither establishes that NAD+ precursors slow Parkinson’s disease.

How to Read the 3% to 10% SNAP-8 Range

The ingredient developer supplied SNAP-8 as a preserved aqueous blend containing approximately 0.05% acetyl octapeptide-3. Adding 3% to 10% of that solution gives 0.0015% to 0.005% actual peptide in the final product[6]. A raw 10 mg vial and a preserved commercial premix are not operationally interchangeable. 3% 0.05% 0.0015% 6% 0.0030% 10% 0.0050%
