Epitalon

Half-life: 2h Subcutaneous injection once daily, typically in the morning.

Warnings. Research compound with limited Western clinical data; most studies originate from Russian research groups.

Mechanism

Activates telomerase enzyme to promote telomere elongation; also normalizes melatonin secretion and exerts antioxidant and geroprotective gene-expression effects.

Overview

Epitalon (Epithalon) is a synthetic tetrapeptide based on the natural pineal peptide epithalamin. It activates telomerase and has demonstrated life-extension and circadian-normalizing effects in animal studies. It is typically used in short cycles once or twice per year rather than continuously.
