Every Thymalin protocol on file, 10 in all, labelled by where each number came from.
Note: Community users inject into muscle or under the skin.
Who: Adults, under the Russian label.
Note: Each 10 mg vial is dissolved in 1 to 2 mL of saline right before the injection.
Who: Adults, under the Russian label.
Note: Usually paired with epitalon 10 mg daily. Named after the Russian longevity studies, whose abstracts do not give the dose.
Note: Russian oncology practice. Timing against chemotherapy matters, so this belongs with the oncologist.
Note: Used in pulsed courses, never as continuous daily dosing.
Note: Often run with epitalon. Under-the-skin use has no controlled basis; the Russian label is intramuscular.
Note: No controlled human study supports the upper half of this range.

Calculate with this peptideYour vial, your water, your dose: Thymalin in syringe units, with the math shown.Diluent: Sodium chloride 0.9% (label); community uses bacteriostatic water
Water volumes sources use: 1 mL, 2 mL
The label dissolves each vial in 1 to 2 mL of saline right before injecting into muscle. Community sites use bacteriostatic water and often inject under the skin. At label doses a 10 mg vial covers only one or two injections.
The Russian label gives adults 5 to 20 mg into muscle once daily for 3 to 10 days, 30 to 100 mg per course, repeated after 1 to 6 months if needed. For prevention it is 5 to 10 mg daily for 3 to 5 days.
In short pulses, never continuously. Community users run 5 to 10 mg daily for 5 to 10 days, 2 to 4 times a year, or a 10-day course every 3 to 4 months, often with epitalon.
With 10 mg in 1 mL (10 mg/mL), 5 mg is 0.5 mL, or 50 units on a U-100 syringe. With 10 mg in 2 mL it is 100 units, a full 1 mL syringe. Use the calculator for your own mix.
