Dosing
How much
do I take?
Starting Dose
250-500 mcg
Start low to assess your body's response to the compound. This conservative approach lets you monitor for any unexpected effects while still potentially gaining metabolic benefits.
Standard Dose
500-1000 mcg
The most commonly referenced dosing range in research contexts. Can be split into two daily doses for more consistent blood levels throughout the day.
Advanced Dose
1000-1500 mcg
Higher doses used in some research contexts. Benefits may plateau at higher doses, so more isn't always better. Always prioritize safety over aggressive dosing.
Timing
Best time to take
Morning dosing aligns with your body's natural metabolic rhythm. If taking before exercise, dose 30-60 minutes prior for optimal effect. Can also split doses between morning and early afternoon.
With food?
Can be taken with or without food. Some users prefer taking with a light meal to minimize any potential gastrointestinal discomfort.
If stacking
If combining with other metabolic compounds, space them out and start each one separately to identify individual effects. Some users stack with L-Carnitine for enhanced fat oxidation support.
Adjusting Your Dose
Increase if
- +You've used the starting dose for 2+ weeks with no issues
- +You're not noticing expected metabolic improvements
- +Your body weight and composition goals aren't progressing
Decrease if
- -You experience persistent GI discomfort
- -Energy levels become erratic or you feel overstimulated
- -Any unexpected side effects arise
- -Sleep quality deteriorates
Signs of right dose
- ✓Improved exercise endurance and recovery
- ✓Gradual fat loss with maintained muscle
- ✓Stable energy throughout the day
- ✓Better overall metabolic markers if tested

Administration
How do I
use it?
Reconstitution
What you need
- •Bacteriostatic water (if using injectable form)
- •Insulin syringes (29-31 gauge) for injection
- •Alcohol swabs for cleaning
- •Oral tablets/capsules don't require reconstitution
Injection
Route
Subcutaneous injection (just under the skin) or oral administration—oral is the preferred and more researched route
Best sites
- •Belly fat area (2 inches from navel)
- •Front or outer thigh
- •Back of upper arm
Technique
- 1.Wash hands thoroughly with soap and water
- 2.Clean injection site with alcohol swab, let air dry
- 3.Pinch about an inch of skin
- 4.Insert needle at 45-90 degree angle
- 5.Push plunger slowly and steadily
- 6.Wait 5 seconds, then remove needle and apply light pressure

Safety Profile
SLU-PP-332 has demonstrated a favorable safety profile in extensive preclinical studies. Mouse studies showed no severe adverse events even at relatively high doses, with researchers noting improvements in metabolic markers without negative effects on appetite, behavior, or organ function. The compound appears well-tolerated in animal models, though human clinical trials are still needed to fully establish its safety profile in people.
Most safety data comes from mouse studies conducted by Thomas Burris and colleagues at Saint Louis University and later the University of Florida. While preclinical results are encouraging, large-scale human clinical trials have not yet been completed. Always work with a healthcare provider when considering research compounds.
Common Side Effects
Experienced by some users
Mild GI discomfort
Some users report mild stomach upset, especially when starting. This is typical of compounds that affect metabolic pathways and usually resolves quickly.
Management: Take with a light meal. Start with lower doses and increase gradually. Symptoms typically improve within the first week.
Increased energy
You might feel more energetic than usual as your mitochondria become more active. This is actually the compound working as intended.
Management: Channel the extra energy into physical activity if possible. Avoid dosing late in the day if it affects sleep.
Mild warmth or temperature increase
A slight increase in body temperature can occur as metabolic rate increases. Think of it like your internal furnace burning a bit hotter.
Management: Stay well-hydrated. This effect is usually mild and indicates the compound is activating metabolic pathways.
Less Common
- •Changes in appetite
- •Mild headache
These typically resolve with continued use or dose adjustment.
Stop and Seek Help If
- ×Any signs of allergic reaction—stop immediately
- ×Persistent GI issues that don't improve with dose adjustment
- ×Significant changes in heart rate or blood pressure
- ×Sleep problems that persist beyond the first week
- ×Any side effect that feels concerning or unusual
- ×Your research protocol or cycle is complete

Interactions
With other peptides
- ✓Can be combined safely. BPC-157 focuses on tissue healing while SLU-PP-332 targets metabolism—different mechanisms that may complement each other.
- ✓Safe to combine. TB-500 supports tissue repair and recovery, which may complement the metabolic enhancement from SLU-PP-332.
- ✓Can be used together. GHK-Cu works on cellular regeneration through different pathways.
- !Use caution—both affect metabolism and glucose. Combining may lead to excessive metabolic effects. Consult a physician.
With medications
- !Diabetes medications (metformin, insulin) - May compound glucose-lowering effects. Risk of hypoglycemia. Requires physician supervision and possible dose adjustment.
- !Thyroid medications (levothyroxine) - Both affect metabolism. Combination may cause excessive metabolic stimulation. Consult endocrinologist.
- ✓Blood pressure medications - Metabolic changes may affect cardiovascular parameters. Monitor blood pressure closely.
- ✓Statins - Generally considered safe to combine. Both may actually complement each other for metabolic health.
With supplements
- ✓L-Carnitine - Potentially synergistic—both support fat oxidation. A popular combination in metabolic protocols.
- ✓CoQ10 - Safe and potentially complementary. Both support mitochondrial function through different mechanisms.
- ✓Caffeine/Stimulants - Use caution—combining may lead to excessive stimulation or cardiovascular stress.
- ✓Berberine - Both affect glucose metabolism. May be synergistic but monitor blood sugar if combining.
