Cardiogen Dosage & Reconstitution Guide

Reconstitution

Cardiogen ships as a freeze-dried (lyophilized) powder that has to be mixed with bacteriostatic water before use. Draw 2 mL of bacteriostatic water into a syringe and add it to a 20 mg vial, letting the stream run down the inside wall of the glass rather than blasting the powder directly. Swirl gently — never shake — until the solution is clear, then keep it refrigerated.

Worked example. 2 mL into a 20 mg vial gives a concentration of 10 mg/mL (10000 mcg/mL). A 1 mg dose then works out to 0.1 mL = 10 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. Scale the water volume up or down to make your target dose land on an easy-to-read mark (1 unit = 0.01 mL).

1. Wipe both vial stoppers (peptide and bacteriostatic water) with an alcohol swab and let them dry.
2. Draw 2 mL of bacteriostatic water into a syringe.
3. Inject it slowly against the inside wall of the peptide vial.
4. Swirl gently until fully dissolved; do not shake.
5. Label the vial with the contents, concentration, and date, and store it in the refrigerator.

Dosing schedule

Timing & cycling

Once daily; bioregulator peptides are run as courses, not continuously.

Cycle length. 10–20 day course, repeated 2–3× per year at most.

Storage & handling

Keep the lyophilized (unmixed) vial refrigerated at 2–8 °C (36–46 °F) in a dry, dark place — it tolerates short periods at room temperature during shipping. Once reconstituted, store it at 2–8 °C, never frozen, and use it within about 2–4 weeks (sooner if the solution turns cloudy or discolored). Swab the stopper before every draw and use a fresh needle each time.

Supplies you'll need

• Cardiogen vials — about 3 for an 8-week run at the upper dose
• Bacteriostatic water — 2 mL per vial (a 10–30 mL multi-dose bottle covers several vials)
• U-100 insulin syringes (0.3–0.5 mL / 30–50 unit barrels are easiest to read) — roughly 56 for 8 weeks, plus spares
• Alcohol swabs — one per injection and one per vial draw
• Sharps container for safe needle disposal

Key points

• Also sold as oral/sublingual formats at similar labeled amounts.
• These Khavinson cytogen tetrapeptides are dosed in the hundreds-of-mcg to low-mg range — earlier figures of 2.5–5 mg/day are too high.
• Course-and-break is the whole design of the bioregulators — don't convert it to a daily habit. Human clinical data is minimal.

What to monitor

No standard labs; this sits on Russian bioregulator tradition with thin Western replication.

Legal & prescription status

No legal prescription exists. It is an unapproved research chemical, sold only for laboratory research and labelled 'not for human consumption.' It is not FDA-approved for any human use.
