Mitochondrial peptide
MOTS-c vials are typically 5 mg or 10 mg. Doses are larger than most peptides (5-10 mg per injection), so reconstitution volume matters for keeping draw volumes manageable. 2 mL bacteriostatic water is standard.
| Dose | 5 mg vial | 10 mg vial |
|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | over 100u | 100units |
| 10 mg | over 100u | over 100u |

Half-life data limited in humans; animal studies suggest ~4-6 hours for plasma, longer biological effects.
Refrigerate after reconstitution. Use within 21-28 days.
Mitochondrial support, insulin sensitivity, exercise capacity. Often dosed 2-3× weekly rather than daily.
The math on this page is correct for the listed vial and BAC-water volume. The decision to reconstitute and inject MOTS-c belongs to you and a clinician who knows your full history — not to a webpage.
MOTS-c most commonly ships as 5 mg or 10 mg of lyophilized powder. The standard reconstitution is 2 mL of bacteriostatic water, which yields clean unit-mark math on a U-100 insulin syringe for the doses used in most protocols.
The standard volume is 2 mL of bacteriostatic water. You can use more (easier to draw, lower concentration) or less (more concentrated, smaller draw volume) without changing the peptide itself — only the syringe math changes. The dose table on this page is pre-calculated for 2 mL.

U-100 insulin syringes (29–31 gauge, 8–13 mm needle) are standard for subcutaneous peptide injection. Each unit on a U-100 syringe equals 0.01 mL. The dose table above shows how many units to draw for each common dose, given the vial size and standard bacteriostatic water volume.
