Peptide Dosage Chart: Reported Ranges by Compound, With Sources

One row per compound: the reported dose range as the strongest source states it, the kind of source, the date read, and a link to each compound's page.

This chart does one thing: for each of the 52 compounds this site's calculators cover, it records the dose range that the strongest available source states, says what kind of source that is, and dates the reading. It replaces a free reference chart that used to sit on a store's guide hub, and it was rebuilt from the sources rather than copied.

The grading matters more than the numbers. A label figure was set by a regulator for a named population and indication. A trial protocol figure was chosen by investigators for a study and carries that study's route, schedule and population. A compounding reference is a pharmacy's stated concentration and cited range for a product that has no approval. Vendor pages are the figures that circulate on product and protocol pages, dated here, with no study behind them unless the row says otherwise. The compound's own page, linked in the first column, converts each figure into U-100 syringe units at that compound's vial sizes; the dosage hub lists them all, and Medibact's peptide guide library carries the evidence behind each compound.

The chart

Compounds whose dosage page is still being written link their calculator page instead; each row is re-pointed the day its page ships.

How to read the chart

The second column is a quotation in compressed form, not a summary of consensus. Where a row holds two figures with a semicolon between them, they come from different sources and are not reconciled; where it holds a nil result ("no human study", "posts no dose"), that absence was checked on the date shown and is itself the finding. Per-kilogram figures stay per kilogram: converting them to a fixed milligram amount needs a body weight, and the compound pages do that arithmetic at 70 kg with the assumption stated. A route in a row is the source's route; a vendor page's subcutaneous figure sitting beside a trial's intravenous or oral one is the pattern the chart exists to show, and it appears in more than a third of the rows.

Three compounds are dosed in units that are not milligrams. Oxytocin's label is in milliunits per minute of an infusion. DSIP and kisspeptin-10 are reported in nanomoles per kilogram, because the original papers used molar doses. NAD+'s one pharmacokinetic study is a rate in micromoles per minute. The compound pages give the molar-mass conversion where it helps.

What the chart does not do

It does not state a dose for anyone, does not rank the sources beyond naming their type, and does not say that a figure on a vendor page is wrong or right; it says that no study tested it, when that is the case. It does not carry syringe units, because units depend on the vial and the water, which the compound pages and the reconstitution calculator handle at each vial size. It does not cover storage, shelf life or the mixing procedure, which are the store's topics: how to reconstitute peptides and how to store peptides on medibact.com. And it does not stay still: the date on each row is the date it was last checked, and a row is only as current as that date.

Opened 2026-09-18: DailyMed's SPL search API and FDA's openFDA drug-label API for the labelled compounds (Vyleesi, Wegovy, Zepbound, Egrifta WR, Pitocin, Forzinity, Scenesse; sermorelin and gonadorelin returned no current label); the vidal.ru drug reference for the Russian registrations of Semax 0.1% and 1%, Selank 0.15% and Thymalin; PubMed through the NCBI E-utilities for the trial abstracts named in the rows and for the census counts; the ClinicalTrials.gov v2 API for the registrations named in the rows; the open-access full text of Stier, Vos and Kenley 2013 for AOD-9604; PubChem for molecular weights; and dated vendor, clinic and compounding pages for the rows graded that way.

Frequently asked questions

Is there a peptide dosage chart with sources?

This page is one. It has one row for each of the 52 compounds this site covers, and each row carries the reported range as the strongest source states it, the kind of source (label, trial protocol, compounding reference or vendor pages), and the date the source was read, which for every row is 2026-09-18. The compound name links to that compound's own page, where the same figures are converted into syringe units at each vial size.

Which peptides have an FDA-labelled dose?

Seven compounds on this chart have a current FDA label opened for it: semaglutide (Wegovy), tirzepatide (Zepbound), tesamorelin (Egrifta WR), PT-141 as bremelanotide (Vyleesi), SS-31 as elamipretide (Forzinity), Melanotan 1 as afamelanotide (Scenesse) and oxytocin (Pitocin). Sermorelin had a label (Geref) until 2008. Semax, Selank and Thymalin are registered in Russia. Every other row rests on trials or on vendor pages, and the chart says which.

What is a peptide dose chart in units, and why does this one not show units?

Because a unit figure depends on the concentration in the vial, and the concentration depends on the vial size and the water added. The same 250 mcg is 5 units at 5 mg/mL and 10 units at 2.5 mg/mL. A single chart cannot carry that for 52 compounds at their vial sizes, so this page reports the amounts as sources state them, and each compound's page carries the units table for its own vials at 1, 2 and 3 mL, with the calculator for any other combination.

Why do the ranges differ so much between compounds?

Three reasons the chart makes visible. The molecules differ in potency by a thousandfold, so kisspeptin-10 is dosed in nanomoles per kilogram and glutathione in grams. The routes differ, and an intravenous trial dose (ipamorelin's 0.03 mg/kg) is not comparable to a subcutaneous vendor figure (100 to 300 mcg). And the sources differ in grade: a label figure was set by a regulator for a population, a trial figure was chosen for a study, and a vendor figure is a market convention with no study behind it.

What does a peptide dosage cheat sheet leave out?

Everything a figure needs to mean something: the population it was studied in, the route, the frequency, the duration, and whether anyone measured a result. This chart names the source type so that the missing context is at least labelled, and it says in the row when the only human route differs from the one on vendor pages. What it cannot supply is the missing evidence itself: nineteen of the 52 rows have no human dose in the literature at all.

How was the chart built and how is it kept current?

Every row's source was opened on 2026-09-18: labels through DailyMed and FDA's openFDA label API, trials through PubMed's E-utilities and the ClinicalTrials.gov v2 API, Russian registrations through the vidal.ru reference, and vendor figures from dated vendor and clinic pages. The date column is the check; when a row is re-read, its date changes. Corrections and new sources go to the contact page, and the compound pages carry the fuller record.
