Overview

Pinealon is a short peptide complex that has been marketed in some Eastern European contexts as a neuroprotective or "brain" peptide.

Outside those settings, it typically appears in experimental or wellness discussions and is not part of mainstream neurology practice.

Mechanism of action

Proposed mechanisms for pinealon include support of neuronal metabolism, modulation of oxidative stress, and influences on gene expression in neural tissue, based largely on preclinical work.

The clinical relevance of these findings remains uncertain.

Indications and use context

Pinealon has been explored in limited clinical settings for age-related or neurodegenerative conditions, depending on region and era.

Evidence is modest and region-specific, and most guidelines do not list it as a recommended therapy.

Safety and side effects

High-level safety themes

Safety data for pinealon are sparse and largely regional.

Reported adverse effects have generally been mild, but the absence of large, long-term studies limits confidence in its safety profile.

Pharmacology and dosing considerations

Pinealon is a bioregulator peptide often used in short courses.

Common administration patterns

Route: Intramuscular (IM) or Subcutaneous (SubQ).

Protocol structure and dosage:
  • Dosage: 10 mg daily (standard Khavinson protocol) or 100 mcg daily (maintenance).
  • Duration: 10-day course, repeated every 6 months.

This information summarizes protocols from Russian bioregulation research.

Formulations and combinations

Pinealon may appear in catalogs as a standalone peptide or as part of "bioregulator" product lines.

Research and evidence snapshot

Published data on pinealon are limited and heterogeneous, often focusing on surrogate endpoints rather than hard clinical outcomes.

As such, pinealon should be viewed as experimental rather than an established therapy.

Frequently asked questions

Future FAQs may explore how pinealon and related "bioregulator" peptides are positioned relative to more familiar neuroprotective strategies and what level of evidence would be needed to support broader use. Answers will remain educational and non-prescriptive.
