About these numbers

The example mixes a 10 mg vial with 2 mL of water for 5 mg/mL, where a 5000 mcg (5 mg) dose is 1 mL, or 100 units. Community protocols commonly cite 5 – 10 mg one to three times weekly.

Almost all MOTS-c evidence comes from cell and animal models; human data is very limited. There is no established human dosing guideline, so these figures are preclinical extrapolation rather than clinical fact.
