What Is It?
Epithalon (Epitalon)
Tetrapeptide studied for telomerase signaling.
Bacteriostatic Water
Sterile water containing a bacteriostatic preservative, commonly used when preparing multi-use research vials.
How To Mix Epithalon (Epitalon)

Best Practices & Common Mistakes
Best Practices
- Use sterile technique.
- Protect from light and heat.
- Store refrigerated when appropriate.
- Use clean syringe-unit math before measuring.
Common Mistakes
- Confusing milligrams with milliliters.
- Choosing an option with awkward decimal units.
- Using too little liquid for very small measurements.
- Shaking the vial aggressively.
Epithalon (Epitalon) Storage & Handling
Lyophilized Powder: −20°C (−4°F) for long-term storage (up to 24 months). Refrigeration 2–8°C (36–46°F) for short-term use (up to ~3 months). Original sealed vial in the freezer is safest.
Reconstituted Solution: 2–8°C (36–46°F), use within ~7–14 days. Keep sealed, avoid light, and do not repeat freeze-thaw cycles.

Frequently Asked Questions
Divide the daily mcg dose by 1000 to get mg. For example, 100 mcg = 0.1 mg; 250 mcg = 0.25 mg; 500 mcg = 0.5 mg. Enter this decimal value in the “Desired dose” field. A common 10‑day course of 5 mg total would be 0.5 mg per day. Do not enter the total course mg as a single dose unless you plan to inject it all at once.
With 10 mg in 1 mL, concentration = 10 mg/mL → 0.1 mg = 0.01 mL = 1 unit. The calculator marks any volume below 4 units as “Poor” because it is too small to measure accurately. To fix this, use a larger BAC volume: 10 mg + 5 mL BAC → 2 mg/mL → 0.1 mg = 0.05 mL = 5 units (now “Usable”). Even better, use a 5 mg vial + 5 mL BAC → 1 mg/mL → 0.1 mg = 0.1 mL = 10 units → “Best”. The color coding guides you.
For a 0.2 mg dose on a 100‑unit syringe:
5 mg vial + 5 mL BAC → 1 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.2 mL = 20 units (×5 → Best)
6 mg vial + 3 mL BAC → 2 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.1 mL = 10 units (×5 → Best)
10 mg vial + 5 mL BAC → 2 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.1 mL = 10 units (×5 → Best)
5 mg vial + 2 mL BAC → 2.5 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.08 mL = 8 units (usable but not ×5 → “Good”)
The calculator highlights green (Best) for multiples of 5. Avoid 1 mL BAC with small doses.
5 mg vial + 5 mL BAC → 1 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.2 mL = 20 units (×5 → Best)
6 mg vial + 3 mL BAC → 2 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.1 mL = 10 units (×5 → Best)
10 mg vial + 5 mL BAC → 2 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.1 mL = 10 units (×5 → Best)
5 mg vial + 2 mL BAC → 2.5 mg/mL → 0.2 mg = 0.08 mL = 8 units (usable but not ×5 → “Good”)
The calculator highlights green (Best) for multiples of 5. Avoid 1 mL BAC with small doses.
Yes, if you reconstitute with bacteriostatic water and store refrigerated (2–8°C). Bacteriostatic water preserves the solution for about 28 days, which covers most Epithalon courses. For a 10‑day course at 0.3 mg/day, total needed = 3 mg. A 5 mg vial is sufficient. The calculator’s “Doses per vial” display helps you plan: 5 mg / 0.3 mg ≈ 16 doses. Keep track of how many you have taken. Discard after 28 days even if solution remains.
Yes, the calculator assumes complete solubility at the concentrations generated by the BAC volumes (1,2,3,5 mL). Epithalon is a short peptide (tetrapeptide) with excellent water solubility, so concentrations up to 50 mg/mL (e.g., 50 mg in 1 mL) should dissolve easily. However, always inspect the solution: if cloudy or with particles, add more BAC water (the calculator does not warn about this). For very high vial strengths (e.g., 50 mg), using 5 mL BAC is safer.
Practical takeaway: If your real goal is weight or metabolic health, the most useful next step is discussing approved treatment options with a clinician rather than relying on an unapproved compound.
