Vesugen dosage chart
Lys-Glu-Asp) (20 mg Vial
Vesugen is dosed at 500 mcg–2 mg daily via subcutaneous injection in educational protocols. A Lys-Glu-Asp reconstituted with bacteriostatic water yields about 6.67 mg/mL. This information is for research and educational use only.
- Reconstitute
- Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water → ~6.67 mg/mL concentration.
- Typical daily range
- 500–2000 mcg once daily (gradual titration).
- Easy measuring
- At 6.67 mg/mL, 1 unit = 0.01 mL ≈ 66.7 mcg on a U-100 insulin syringe.
- Storage
- Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); avoid freeze–thaw cycles.
Dosing schedule
| Week | Daily Dose (mcg) | Units (per injection) (mL) |
|---|---|---|
| Week 1 | 500 mcg (0.5 mg) | 7.5 units (0.075 mL) |
| Week 2 | 1000 mcg (1.0 mg) | 15 units (0.15 mL) |
| Week 3 | 1500 mcg (1.5 mg) | 22.5 units (0.225 mL) |
| Weeks 4–8+ | 1500–2000 mcg (1.5–2.0 mg) | 22.5–30 units (0.225–0.30 mL) |
Reconstitution steps
- 1Draw 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe.
- 2Inject slowly down the vial wall; avoid foaming.
- 3Gently swirl/roll until dissolved (do not shake).
- 4Label and refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F), protected from light.
Important Notes
Practical considerations for consistency and safety.
- Use new sterile insulin syringes; dispose in a sharps container.
- Rotate injection sites (abdomen, thighs, upper arms) to reduce local irritation.
- Inject slowly; wait a few seconds before withdrawing the needle.
- Document daily dose and site rotation to maintain consistency.
How This Works
Vesugen (KED) is a tripeptide derived from amino acids associated with vascular wall proteins. Research indicates it may support vascular endothelial cell proliferation by modulating the expression of Ki-67, a protein closely associated with cell division. The peptide is hypothesized to interact with promoter regions of the Ki-67 gene, potentially influencing epigenetic regulation. Additional studies suggest Vesugen may normalize endothelin-1 expression and increase sirtuin-1 (SIRT-1) expression in vascular endothelial cells.
Potential Benefits & Side Effects
Observations from preclinical and cell culture research.
- May support vascular endothelial cell proliferation and renewal through Ki-67 gene regulation.
- Research suggests potential neuroprotective properties; oral application improved memory and attention in elderly individuals with functional CNS disorders.
- May restore synaptic plasticity in in vitro models of Alzheimer’s disease.
- Generally well tolerated in reported studies; occasional mild injection-site reactions (redness/itch) may occur with subcutaneous administration.
Lifestyle Factors
Complementary strategies for best outcomes.
- Pair with a balanced, heart-healthy diet rich in antioxidants and omega-3 fatty acids.
- Combine regular cardiovascular exercise to reinforce vascular adaptations.
- Prioritize sleep and stress management to support recovery and cellular renewal.
Injection Technique
General subcutaneous guidance from clinical best-practice resources.
- Clean the vial stopper and skin with alcohol; allow to dry.
- Pinch a skinfold; insert the needle at 45–90° into subcutaneous tissue.
- Do not aspirate for subcutaneous injections; inject slowly and steadily.
- Rotate sites systematically (abdomen, thighs, upper arms) to avoid lipohypertrophy.

Vesugen dosage FAQs
How much bacteriostatic water do you use to reconstitute Vesugen?
Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water → ~6.67 mg/mL concentration. for a Lys-Glu-Asp) (20 mg Vial vial. Add the water slowly against the inside wall of the vial and swirl — never shake — until the powder fully dissolves.
What does the Vesugen dosing schedule look like?
Week 1 — 500 mcg (0.5 mg) — 7.5 units (0.075 mL); Week 2 — 1000 mcg (1.0 mg) — 15 units (0.15 mL); Week 3 — 1500 mcg (1.5 mg) — 22.5 units (0.225 mL); Weeks 4–8+ — 1500–2000 mcg (1.5–2.0 mg) — 22.5–30 units (0.225–0.30 mL). The full table above lists every step with matching syringe units.
What are the mixing steps for Vesugen?
Draw 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe. Inject slowly down the vial wall; avoid foaming. Gently swirl/roll until dissolved (do not shake).
How should reconstituted Vesugen be stored?
Storage: Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); avoid freeze–thaw cycles..
How many insulin syringe units equal a Vesugen dose?
Units depend on the water volume you used. Divide your target dose by the vial concentration to get millilitres, then multiply by 100 — 1 unit on a U-100 insulin syringe is 0.01 mL. The Spartan Peptides reconstitution calculator does this conversion for you.
Is Vesugen approved for human use?
No. Vesugen is sold and referenced strictly as a research chemical. Nothing on this page is medical advice and the material is not for human consumption.
Educational and research information only. Not medical advice, not for human consumption. Values are reference figures — always verify your own math with the reconstitution calculator.
On any insulin syringe, 1 unit = 0.01 mL, so unit counts above hold across brands.
