AOD-9604 Dosage Chart & Schedule
A modified fragment of the C-terminus of human growth hormone (residues 176-191) studied for fat metabolism without the full growth-promoting effects of intact GH.
Research-community references converge on a single reference dose of about 300 mcg per day subcutaneously. Obesity trials of the compound did not reach approval for that indication.

Dosage protocols
Commonly referenced research tiers. Start conservative; every compound and study context differs.
- Frequency
- Once daily
- Weekly total
- 2.1 mg/week
- Cycle
- Ongoing or cycled
The commonly referenced daily amount, often described as a morning, fasted injection; there is no established titration ladder.
A growth-hormone fragment
- A modified fragment of the growth-hormone C-terminus (residues 176-191) studied for lipolysis without the growth-promoting effects of intact GH.
- Clinical obesity trials did not achieve approval for that indication, so dosing reflects research references rather than a labeled regimen.
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
AOD-9604 reconstitution
5 mg vial + 2 mL bacteriostatic water = 2500 mcg/mL.
From vial to injection in 6 steps
Wipe both vial tops
Swab the peptide vial and the bacteriostatic-water vial with fresh alcohol and let them dry.
Draw the water
Pull the planned amount of bacteriostatic water (2 mL) into the syringe.
Add it slowly
Run the water down the inside wall of the vial — don't blast the powder. Swirl gently; never shake.
Let it dissolve
Wait until the solution is fully clear, then refrigerate the vial.
Draw your dose
Pull the calculated units on a U-100 insulin syringe (~12 units for 300 mcg).
Store between uses
Keep the reconstituted vial refrigerated and use within its stable window.
Handling & storage
- A 5 mg vial + 2 mL bacteriostatic water = 2.5 mg/mL, so 300 mcg draws to about 12 units on a U-100 syringe.
- Commonly referenced as a single morning dose; refrigerate after reconstitution.
- Keep the lyophilized powder cool and dark before mixing.
AOD-9604 dosing FAQ
What is the reference dose?
Research-community sources commonly cite about 300 mcg per day subcutaneously, with no established titration schedule.
When is it usually taken?
It is frequently referenced as a single morning, fasted injection, though timing is a research-community convention rather than a validated protocol.
What draws up on a syringe?
From a 5 mg vial in 2 mL (2.5 mg/mL): 300 mcg is about 0.12 mL, or roughly 12 units on a U-100 insulin syringe.
