Half-life
—
Common dose
5 – 10 mg
Dosing frequency
Daily
Administration
Subcutaneous, Intramuscular
How it works
Epitalon is theorized to activate telomerase, the enzyme that lengthens telomeres. It also influences pineal-gland function, supporting melatonin rhythms and circadian regulation in aging research.
Protocol notes
Typical Khavinson-style protocols: 5–10 mg daily for 10–20 days, repeated 2–3 times per year. Subcutaneous or intramuscular.
Reported side effects
Reported as well-tolerated. Limited Western clinical data.
