Medical Disclaimer

This is not medical advice

Everything on DoseIQ — the compound library, the guides, the calculator, and the Peptide Guru — is provided for information and record-keeping. It is not a diagnosis, not a prescription, and not a treatment recommendation for you specifically.

Using DoseIQ does not create a doctor–patient relationship. Nobody here has examined you, read your bloodwork, or knows your history. The site cannot account for your conditions, your medications, your allergies, or anything else that would change what's sensible for you.

Talk to a qualified healthcare provider before starting, changing or stopping anything. That is not throat-clearing — it is the single most useful thing on this page.

Regulatory status of what we describe

Most compounds in our library are not approved for human use by the FDA, Health Canada, the EMA, or any comparable regulator. Many are sold as "research chemicals" and labelled "not for human consumption". Some are prescription drugs in most countries. A few are controlled substances, and possessing them without a prescription is a criminal matter in many places.

We describe what these compounds are and what people do with them because that information is otherwise scattered across forums and often wrong. Describing something is not endorsing it, and it is not telling you to take it.

Legality varies by country and by province or state. Working out what applies where you live is your responsibility.

Where our numbers come from

We are deliberately explicit about this, because most sites are not. Every compound is graded on two separate axes:

• Published evidence — what controlled research exists, if any.
• Real-world use — how widely and how long the community has actually used it.

These are different facts and neither substitutes for the other. Many peptides have no randomised controlled trial, largely because they cannot be patented and so nobody funds one. That is a statement about research funding rather than about whether something works — but it does mean the evidence base is genuinely thinner than for an approved drug, and you should factor that in.

Where a dose comes from accumulated community practice rather than a trial, we say so on the page. We would rather you know the provenance of a number than trust it blindly.

About the calculator

The reconstitution calculator does arithmetic on numbers you enter. It cannot tell whether your vial actually contains what the label says, whether your dose is appropriate for you, or whether you typed 5 mg when you meant 10.

Always check the result against your own vial before drawing. If a number looks surprising, it may well be wrong — and it may be wrong because of what went in. Peptide vials are frequently mislabelled or underfilled, which no calculator can detect.

About the Peptide Guru

The Guru is an AI assistant grounded in our compound library. It is genuinely useful for understanding mechanisms, timing and dosing conventions. It is also capable of being confidently wrong, which is a property of the technology and not something we can fully engineer away.

It does not know your medical history. It cannot diagnose. It will not tell you to stop a prescribed medication, and if it ever appears to, ignore it and ask your doctor.

When to stop reading and get help

Contact a healthcare professional promptly if you experience:

• Chest pain, difficulty breathing, or swelling of the face or throat
• Severe or persistent abdominal pain — particularly on a GLP-1
• Signs of a serious allergic reaction
• Symptoms of very low blood sugar: confusion, shaking, sweating, faintness — particularly on IGF-1 or insulin
• Any new, changing or bleeding mole — particularly on melanotan
• Injection-site infection: spreading redness, heat, pus, or fever
• Anything that frightens you

Specific situations that need a doctor

• Pregnancy or breastfeeding. Essentially nothing here has reproductive safety data.
• Cancer, current or past. Several compounds promote tissue growth or blood vessel formation. This one genuinely matters.
• Prescription medication. Interactions are real and not always obvious.
• Diabetes or blood sugar problems. Several compounds affect glucose directly.
• Under 18. DoseIQ is for adults.
• Competitive athletes. Many compounds here are on the WADA Prohibited List. Check before, not after.

Your decisions are yours

By using DoseIQ you accept that decisions about what you take are yours alone, and that we are not liable for outcomes arising from them. We provide information and arithmetic. You provide judgement.

We also don't sell, supply, source or verify any compound, and we cannot vouch for the identity, purity or contents of anything you buy from anyone.
