Weekly research phases

Units and volumes recompute from your Step 1 concentration (10 mL BAC → 1.00 mg/mL · 5000.0 mcg/unit).

Standard titration

Clinic/sports educational IM tables often use ~500–1000 mg per session (1–2 mL of 500 mg/mL solution), several times weekly. Medical deficiency care can use higher, supervised regimens.

L-Carnitine 10 mg vials

600 vials

~6000 mg mg total peptide over this 8-week schedule at 500 mg → 1000 mg weekly (phase ladder). Each vial holds 10 mg.

Bacteriostatic water

2000 × 3 mL or 600 × 10 mL

10 mL BAC per vial × 600 vials = 6000.0 mL total. Buy as 2000× 3 mL bottles or 600× 10 mL bottles (whichever you stock).

U-100 insulin syringes (100-unit)

6000+ syringes

Some doses need more than one 100-unit syringe at your concentration — plan extras and split draws when the math exceeds the barrel.

Alcohol swabs & sharps

Wipe vial stopper and injection site each time. Dispose needles in a proper sharps container.

Reconstitution steps

  1. Ready injectable solution — do not reconstitute with BAC unless your label requires dilution.
  2. Inspect: clear solution, 500 mg/mL label, within date, no particulates.
  3. Wipe stopper; draw the desired mL with a sterile syringe sized for IM volume.
  4. Track first-puncture date on multi-dose vials; use sterile multi-dose technique.
  5. Store per manufacturer label.

Storage

Lyophilized

N/A — liquid product.

Reconstituted

Follow label multi-dose storage; discard if contaminated.

  • ·Do not freeze unless label allows.
  • ·Write first-puncture date on the vial.

Protocol notes

  • ·Not a peptide — nutrient for fatty-acid mitochondrial transport.
  • ·Calculator defaults: peptide amount 5000 mg + 10 mL to match 500 mg/mL labeled liquid.
  • ·Research use only.

Research context & considerations

L-Carnitine supports long-chain fatty-acid entry into mitochondria. Injectable forms are used in metabolic/sports clinic contexts; body-composition evidence beyond diet is mixed.

  • ·IM injection pain is common.
  • ·Fishy odor can occur at higher exposures.
  • ·Not a substitute for medical evaluation of deficiency or metabolic disease.
  • ·Research/clinic catalog product framing only.
