MOTS-C 40mg Dosage Protocol

Preparation, measurement, commonly documented protocol ranges, and storage for a MOTS-C 40mg vial.

Research use only Educational summary of a commonly documented convention. Not approved for human use.
Vial Size MOTS-C 40mg
Preparation 2mL bacteriostatic water
Concentration 20mg/mL after preparation
Documented Convention 200mcg-1mg once daily

1. Preparation and Measurement

MOTS-C 40mg With 2mL of Diluent

Add 2mL of bacteriostatic water to the vial. The resulting concentration is 20mg/mL. On a U-100 syringe, each unit contains 200mcg.

40mg / 2mL = 20mg/mL
1 U-100 unit = 0.01mL = 200mcg

Preparation

  1. Draw 2mL of bacteriostatic water using sterile equipment.
  2. Let the liquid run slowly down the inside wall of the vial.
  3. Gently swirl until dissolved. Do not shake.
  4. Label with the preparation date and refrigerate.

Check the calculation with the peptide calculator.

2. Commonly Documented Schedule

Route commonly described: subcutaneous in circulated protocols. Frequency: once daily.

Period Documented amount Measurement
Weeks 1-2 200mcg once daily 0.01mL / 1 units
Weeks 3-4 400mcg once daily 0.02mL / 2 units
Weeks 5-6 600mcg once daily 0.03mL / 3 units
Weeks 7-8 800mcg once daily 0.04mL / 4 units
Weeks 9-12 1mg once daily 0.05mL / 5 units

Vial estimate: One 40mg vial contains approximately 200 administrations at the first listed amount or 40 at the final listed amount.

Practical Notes

  • The table applies only to this vial prepared with exactly 2mL.
  • Some entries are very small measurements; account for the accuracy of the measuring device.
  • Record the amount, date, and preparation used.

3. Supplies Needed

  • MOTS-C 40mg vial.
  • 2mL of bacteriostatic water per vial.
  • Sterile U-100 syringes.
  • Alcohol swabs.
  • Sharps container.

4. Storage and Handling

  • Keep unopened vials cool, dry, dark, and protected from moisture.
  • After preparation, refrigerate at 2-8 degrees C.
  • Protect from light and avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles.
  • Do not use material with particles, discoloration, or a damaged seal.

5. Research Context

MOTS-c is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied in metabolic regulation, stress responses, and exercise-related signalling. Much of the evidence is preclinical, with limited observational human research.

MOTS-c is not an approved therapeutic drug, and no clinically validated human schedule has been established.
