COA PublishedWhat's in the Vial
Add bacteriostatic water slowly. Swirl gently to dissolve. Refrigerate at 2–8 °C; use within 28 days. Epitalon dissolves rapidly due to its small tetrapeptide structure.
General Protocol Ranges
These are published research ranges — not a prescription. Your physician finalizes your protocol.
Published longevity research protocols use 5–10 mg/day for 10–20 day cycles, typically 2–4 cycles per year. Subcutaneous or intravenous administration depending on the research model. Your physician will define cycle structure.
Why Physician Oversight?
SourcePeptideCo does not dispense research-grade peptides without licensed physician oversight. This isn't a formality — these compounds interact with individual biochemistry in ways that require clinical judgment.
Our process: you submit a consultation intake, a coordinator matches you with a licensed physician in your state within one business day, and the physician designs a protocol appropriate to your research goals and health profile.
No physician sign-off, no order. That's the standard we hold to.

Preclinical research (primarily by Khavinson et al.) demonstrated Epitalon-induced upregulation of telomerase activity and telomere lengthening in somatic cells. Human studies remain limited — most data comes from Soviet-era Russian research. Your physician will help contextualize this evidence for your protocol.
Epitalon is a synthetic analogue of epithalamin, a peptide isolated from the pineal gland. Research suggests it influences melatonin biosynthesis and circadian regulation through pineal restoration — particularly relevant in aging models where pineal function declines.
Lyophilized peptide powder: store at −20 °C for long-term (up to 24 months) or at 4 °C for up to 6 months. Once reconstituted: refrigerate at 2–8 °C, use within the timeframe specified on your product (typically 14–30 days). Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
Our lyophilized peptides carry a 24-month expiry from manufacture date as printed on the batch label. Each COA confirms the exact lot date and expiry. Once reconstituted, shelf life drops significantly — see the reconstitution notes for your specific compound.
SourcePeptideCo operates through a licensed physician network. Peptide research compounds can interact with medications, contraindicate with certain conditions, and require clinical judgment for correct dosing. We don't sell without physician oversight — not as a formality, but because the oversight is part of the value.
A Certificate of Analysis (COA) documents the test results for a specific production batch. It certifies identity (the peptide is what we say it is), purity (by HPLC-UV), molecular mass (by LC-MS), endotoxin levels, and sterility. Every batch is tested by an independent ISO 17025-accredited laboratory.
