What is Pinealon?
Pinealon is the EDR tripeptide (Glu-Asp-Arg), a Khavinson short-peptide brain bioregulator. It is studied for neuroprotection and cognitive support and is popular in Spanish and Latin-American markets in both injectable and oral-capsule (“Cytogen”) formats. It pairs with Epithalon in the classic sleep and longevity stack.
Reconstitution
Pinealon reconstitutes with bacteriostatic water. Draw 2mL down the inside wall of the vial, swirl gently until fully dissolved, and refrigerate. Do not shake.

Reconstitution Guide
Materials Needed
- Pinealon 10mg lyophilized vial
- Bacteriostatic water (BAC water)
- Insulin syringes (U-100, 29-31 gauge)
- Alcohol swabs
- Sharps container
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Prepare workspace — Clean environment, gather materials, thorough handwashing.
- Clean vial stoppers — Wipe both vials with alcohol swabs. Allow complete drying.
- Draw BAC water — Draw 2mL bacteriostatic water using a sterile syringe.
- Add to peptide — Inject slowly down the inside wall of the vial. Do not spray directly onto the powder.
- Dissolve — Allow a few minutes for complete dissolution. Gentle swirl only — no shaking.
- Verify — Solution should be clear.
- Label and store — Note reconstitution date. Refrigerate immediately.
Dosage Protocol
Concentration Calculations
With 10mg peptide in 2mL BAC water:
- Concentration: 5mg/mL (5000mcg/mL)
- Per unit (U-100 syringe): 50mcg per unit

Common Dose Calculations
| Desired Dose | Draw Volume | Syringe Units |
|---|---|---|
| 1mg | 0.20mL | 20 units |
| 5mg | 1.00mL | 100 units |
| 10mg | 2.00mL | 200 units |
Research Considerations
Mechanism
Short peptides of the EDR class are proposed to reach cell nuclei and modulate tissue-specific gene expression, the mechanism the Khavinson group attributes to the bioregulators.
Sourcing for Research
Source from verified suppliers that provide third-party testing and certificates of analysis (COA) for each batch. Compare purity documentation, shipping conditions, and batch traceability before purchasing research materials.
Storage Requirements
Lyophilized (Powder)
- Temperature: -20°C or colder
- Duration: 2+ years
- Conditions: Dry, dark, protected from moisture
Reconstituted
- Temperature: 2-8°C (refrigerated)
- Duration: 2-3 weeks
- Conditions: Protected from light, never freeze
Safety Considerations
- Pinealon is a research compound
- Not approved for any indication in any jurisdiction
- Research use only — not for human consumption
- Use sterile technique; never reuse needles or syringes
