How to read the AOD-9604 chart
The first two rows are convention from vendor pages, so read the source column before comparing amounts. The last row is the only human dosing we found, and it was a tablet. Background on what AOD-9604 is lives on the AOD-9604 page.
AOD-9604 injection dosage and mixing
AOD-9604 comes as a freeze-dried powder, and vendors sell it for injection under the skin. You mix it with bacteriostatic water, which is sterile water with a preservative so one vial can be drawn from more than once. The tables cover 5 mg and 10 mg vials and show the units to draw on a U-100 syringe, which holds 100 units in 1 mL, for 1, 2 and 3 mL of water.
| Water | Strength | 250 mcg | 300 mcg | 500 mcg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 5,000 mcg per mL | 5 units | 6 units | 10 units |
| 2 mL | 2,500 mcg per mL | 10 units | 12 units | 20 units |
| 3 mL | about 1,667 mcg per mL | 15 units | 18 units | 30 units |
| Water | Strength | 250 mcg | 300 mcg | 500 mcg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 mL | 10,000 mcg per mL | 2.5 units | 3 units | 5 units |
| 2 mL | 5,000 mcg per mL | 5 units | 6 units | 10 units |
| 3 mL | about 3,333 mcg per mL | 7.5 units | 9 units | 15 units |
A few units is hard to read on a syringe. More water makes each draw bigger and easier to measure, so 2 or 3 mL is the easier choice for a 10 mg vial.
For any other vial, water or amount, the reconstitution calculator does the same math.
When and how often
Once a day, in the morning before eating. That's the timing on vendor pages, which reason that a meal's insulin works against fat release. We found nothing published that tests it, so it's reasoning rather than a finding.
About 12 weeks, then a break. Twelve weeks on and several weeks off is the course described most often, and we couldn't find where the length or the break came from.
For planning, 300 mcg a day for 12 weeks is 25.2 mg in all. Compare vendors on price per milligram against that total, not on the price of one vial.
How long a vial lasts
A mixed vial goes on a 28-day clock in the fridge the day water goes in, however much of it gets used. At 300 mcg a day, a 5 mg vial lasts 16 days and a 10 mg vial would last 33, so the 10 mg vial runs out of fridge life first, with about 1.6 mg unused. For the 12-week total of 25.2 mg, that means six 5 mg vials, or three 10 mg vials mixed one at a time, since each is finished in 28 days.
Signs the amount or timing is off
These are reported experiences, not findings from a study of research vials.
Redness or a lump where you injected. People report it as mild, and if it doesn't settle between daily doses, people rotate the spot or stop.
A headache or feeling off. People report it, and if it carries on past a few days they usually stop.
No change after 12 weeks. People often stop here. We found no human trial of a daily amount under the skin to say what to expect, so some people set a defined stretch with a decision at the end.
Cloudy or discolored liquid. A mixed vial that was clear and has turned cloudy or changed color is generally discarded rather than used.
It's sold for research, and there's no approved AOD-9604 product to read a label from. You knew that, it's why you're reading this and not the label.
Questions people ask about AOD-9604 dosage
How much AOD-9604 should I take per day?
Vendor pages most often give 300 mcg once a day under the skin, in a range of 250 to 500 mcg. No label or human study sets an injected amount, so treat the figure as convention.
Can you take AOD-9604 five days on and two off?
No study or label sets it. Some people describe five days on and two off to save material, and some run it next to BPC-157 for joints, but we couldn't trace either to a source and we found no study of the combination.
How much bacteriostatic water for a 5 mg vial of AOD-9604?
You can use 1, 2 or 3 mL, because the water only changes the size of each draw. With 2 mL, 300 mcg is 12 units on a U-100 syringe, and 1 mL makes it 6 units.
Can you take AOD-9604 by mouth?
The company trials we found used daily tablets of 0.25 to 1 mg. That doesn't tell you what an oral product sold today delivers, and the injection amounts above are not the same as the tablet amounts.
Has AOD-9604 been tested in people?
Yes, in trials run by the company that made it, mostly by mouth as tablets. We found no published human trial of a daily amount under the skin, and none for the joint use people ask about.
How long does a mixed AOD-9604 vial last?
A mixed vial is good for 28 days in the fridge. At 300 mcg a day a 5 mg vial is finished in 16 days, while a 10 mg vial would outlast the 28 days.
