About Thymosin Alpha-1

A 28-amino-acid peptide derived from thymosin fraction 5, studied extensively for immune system modulation, antiviral activity, and vaccine adjuvancy.

Research dose ranges

  • Dose: 9001800 mcg per administration
  • Frequency: 1× per day
  • Route: subcutaneous
  • Half-life: ~2 hours
  • Cycle: 26 weeks on / 8 off

Clinical studies have used 900 mcg (0.9 mg) to 1800 mcg (1.8 mg) subcutaneously 2–3 times per week. The approved Zadaxin dose is 1.6 mg twice weekly for 6 months in hepatitis B protocols.

Storage

Lyophilized vials stable at 2–8°C. Refrigerate reconstituted solution and use within 8 hours per manufacturer guidance; some research protocols allow up to 24 hours.

Thymosin Alpha-1 calculator FAQ

How do I use the Thymosin Alpha-1 calculator?+

Confirm your vial size in mg (default 1.5), set the diluent volume in mL (default 1), enter your target dose, and the calculator returns the concentration, the exact insulin-syringe units to draw, and how many doses your vial yields.

What's the standard Thymosin Alpha-1 reconstitution?+

Most Thymosin Alpha-1 research protocols reconstitute a 1.5 mg vial with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water, yielding 1500 mcg/mL.

What syringe should I use for Thymosin Alpha-1?+

U-100 insulin syringes are standard for Thymosin Alpha-1 subcutaneous administration. 0.5 mL barrels have clearer unit markings for typical research doses.

Does the Thymosin Alpha-1 calculator support mg and IU?+

Yes. Enter your dose in mcg, mg, or IU. For IU, set the mcg-per-IU ratio (333 for HGH is a common default).
