Dosing & Reconstitution Guide

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

Standard / Gradual Approach (3 mL = ~6.67 mg/mL)

Reconstitute: Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water to one 20 mg vial → final concentration ~6.67 mg/mL (6,667 mcg/mL).

Typical daily range: 100–200 mcg once daily, raised gradually over an 8–16 week course (optional 250–300 mcg later).

Easy measuring: At ~6.67 mg/mL, 1 unit ≈ 66.7 mcg on a U-100 syringe. Doses land at roughly 1.5–4.5 units, so a 30- or 50-unit syringe reads the small volumes most accurately.

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.

01AHK-Cu — 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 50 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 50 mg by the amount you use per injection. The calculator above reports this as "doses per vial" the moment you enter a dose. No. AHK-Cu is sold strictly for laboratory and research purposes and is not approved by the FDA or other regulators for human use.

Where the Human Evidence Stands — and Why It Does Not Reach Lipogenesis

AOD-9604’s clinical record lives almost entirely in obesity, and understanding it is the fairest way to gauge whether any of the preclinical antilipogenic promise translated to people. The short version: it was tested seriously, in humans, at scale, and it did not deliver on its primary endpoint — and none of the human work measured lipogenesis at all. Across development, AOD-9604 was studied in roughly six human clinical trials enrolling more than 900 participants in total, a tally that derives from the sponsor’s development-program summary rather than a single publication.10 The centerpiece early study, a 12-week Phase 2 evaluation in obese adults (METAOD005) using once-daily oral dosing across several dose arms, was encouraging: the 1 mg arm reportedly lost more weight than placebo, and the results generated optimistic press.10 But the pivotal, longer, more rigorously controlled 24-week study (METAOD006) — a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter trial that is the single published RCT on the compound — found that the weight-loss difference between AOD-9604 and placebo did not reach statistical significance at the primary endpoint, especially against a background of intensive diet and exercise.10 Development as an obesity drug was terminated in 2007. Two points matter for the antilipogenic question. First, every human study used weight and body-composition endpoints, plus safety and pharmacokinetic measures. None used the tools that actually quantify de novo lipogenesis in people — stable-isotope tracers (for example, deuterated water incorporation into palmitate), adipose or hepatic lipogenic-gene expression, or measured lipogenic flux. So even the human trials that exist are silent on whether AOD-9604 reduces fat synthesis; they measured the downstream outcome (weight), not the mechanism (lipogenesis), and the downstream outcome was not robustly positive. Second, the reassuring endocrine profile held up: the compound was reported not to raise IGF-1 and not to impair glucose tolerance, consistent with the “GH activity modulation” design.1 Trials ~6 studies, >900 participants total10 Pivotal design 24-week randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter (METAOD006); oral10 Primary endpoint Weight difference vs placebo did NOT reach statistical significance10 Lipogenesis measured? No — no DNL tracer, lipogenic-gene, or flux endpoints in any human study Endocrine profile No reported IGF-1 rise; no impaired glucose tolerance1 Outcome Obesity development halted in 200710 The honest reading is stark: the compound’s best-evidenced outcome (fat loss in obesity) was itself not robustly demonstrated in humans, and its proposed mechanism (reduced lipogenesis) was never measured in humans at all. Extrapolating from “inhibited ACC in rat fat pads” to “reduces lipogenesis in people” is a leap across species, tissues, and measurement methods, with no human data on the far side. For a measured look at how the clinical results are often characterized, see the site’s summary of what clinical trials indicate about the fat-burning potential of AOD-9604.

How-to reference

How to convert mcg to mg (and back)

Because the factor is exactly 1000, every conversion is a decimal-point move of three places — no calculator strictly required once you see the pattern: mcg → mg: divide by 1000, i.e. move the decimal point three places to the left. 500 mcg → 0.5 mg; 100 mcg → 0.1 mg; 1500 mcg → 1.5 mg. mg → mcg: multiply by 1000, i.e. move the decimal point three places to the right. 0.5 mg → 500 mcg; 2 mg → 2000 mcg; 1.25 mg → 1250 mcg. The tool above does the same move for you and trims trailing zeros, so you can paste in any value — whole or fractional — and read the exact counterpart.
