DSIP (5mg) Dosage Protocol
Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide (DSIP) is a neuropeptide that promotes delta wave sleep. Research indicates it modulates sleep architecture, reduces stress, and may have analgesic properties.
Add 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 2.5 mg/mL (2500 mcg/mL)
100-300 mcg daily, 3 hours before bedtime
At 2.5 mg/mL: 4 units = 100 mcg, 12 units = 300 mcg
Lyophilized: -20°C; Reconstituted: 2-8°C for up to 4 weeks
| Week | Daily Dose | Units (per injection) |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1-2 | 100 mcg | 4 units nightly |
| Weeks 3-4 | 200 mcg | 8 units nightly |
| Weeks 5+ | 250-300 mcg | 10-12 units nightly |
- 1Draw 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe
- 2Inject slowly down the vial wall to prevent foaming
- 3Gently swirl until fully dissolved - do not shake
- 4Label with date and concentration, refrigerate immediately
DSIP is a 9-amino acid peptide that promotes slow-wave (delta) sleep without acting as a sedative. It modulates cortisol and ACTH levels, has stress-protective effects, and may stimulate GH release. Unlike sedatives, it can be given during the day and still improve nighttime sleep.
- Promotes delta wave (deep) sleep
- Reduces stress hormone levels
- May have analgesic properties
- Does not cause next-day sedation
