5-Amino-1MQ Dosage Chart & Schedule
A small-molecule inhibitor of the enzyme NNMT — not a peptide — studied mainly in cell and animal models for its effects on fat-cell metabolism and its potential to preserve NAD+.
5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor, not a peptide, taken by mouth rather than injected. Its effects on fat-cell metabolism come from cell and animal studies; research-community sources reference oral doses in the tens-of-milligrams range, with no validated human dosing.
Figures describe how 5-Amino-1MQ is reported in the research literature and research-community references — not a recommendation for human use. For laboratory research only.

- Frequency
- Once daily
- Weekly total
- ~1,050 mg/week
- Cycle
- No established cycle
Upper end of the tens-of-milligrams range cited in research communities.
Not a peptide
- 5-Amino-1MQ is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor taken orally, not a reconstituted injectable peptide.
- By inhibiting NNMT it is proposed to shift adipocyte metabolism and spare NAD+.
Preclinical evidence
- Effects on fat metabolism come from cell and animal studies; there is no established human clinical dosing.
Ready to run this protocol?
Dosing is only as good as the vial. Research-grade peptides are third-party tested with published COAs from our top-rated source — reconstitute with confidence and skip the guesswork on identity and purity.
Weekly schedule
A typical week on the standard protocol (Once daily).
Dosing day Off
Handling & storage
- Supplied as oral capsules, not a reconstituted injectable, so no bacteriostatic water is involved.
- Research-community sources take it once daily, often with food; there is no validated human regimen.
- Store capsules in a cool, dry, sealed container away from light.
5-Amino-1MQ dosing FAQ
Is 5-Amino-1MQ injected?
No. It is a small molecule taken orally as a capsule, not a peptide reconstituted for injection.
How much is referenced per day?
Research-community sources cite oral doses in the tens of milligrams, commonly around 50-150 mg once daily, without clinical validation.
Is there an established human dose?
No. Evidence for its metabolic effects is from cell and animal studies, so any figure is a research reference only.
Why is it listed among peptides?
It is grouped with research peptides by convention, but chemically it is a small-molecule NNMT inhibitor rather than a peptide.
