Overview
This page focuses on how to think about basic dose and exposure concepts in an abstract way for 5-Amino-1MQ and similar peptides. It does not provide dosing instructions or protocols.
Key themes in dosing concepts
- Understanding vial amount, dilution volume, and resulting concentration.
- Relating concentration to an abstract "unit" or hypothetical dose.
- Recognizing that pharmacokinetics (absorption, distribution, metabolism, elimination) influence exposure beyond simple vial math.
Context and caveats
Any concrete dosing decisions for 5-Amino-1MQ must be grounded in product labelling (where it exists), formal clinical guidance, and individualized medical judgment. Educational tools such as calculators and half-life plotters are best treated as aids for understanding, not as dosing engines.
Sport & Anti-Doping Warning
5-amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor marketed in some wellness and physique circles; as an unapproved drug, it falls into the general S0 category of non-approved substances under the World Anti-Doping Code.
- >Background on 5-amino-1MQ as an experimental metabolic agent
- >WADA guidance that non-approved drugs are prohibited under S0
Even when not named explicitly on the Prohibited List, experimental metabolic drugs like 5-amino-1MQ are captured by the S0 'non-approved substance' rule.
