Side Effects & Safety Mild GI discomfort most common, usually transient in the first week Slight stimulant effect increased energy/alertness, especially early on Headaches occasional, typically mild and dose-related Mild insomnia if taken too late in the day No human clinical safety data all safety information from preclinical studies and community reports No liver toxicity observed in animal studies at therapeutic doses Unknown drug interactions theoretically could interact with NAD+-dependent pathways Core Supplies for This Protocol The three essentials for running any reconstituted injectable: cold storage, accurate syringes, and metabolic tracking
Storage Stability: Maintains reconstituted peptide integrity longer than non-preserved sterile water alternatives, which is critical for multi-week studies
Never use: Tap water (bacteria, contaminants) Distilled water (no preservative) Saline solution (wrong osmolarity for some peptides) Only bacteriostatic water
