PE-22-28 (10mg) Dosage Protocol
PE-22-28 is a spadin analog peptide that acts as a TREK-1 potassium channel blocker. Research suggests it may have antidepressant-like effects through this novel mechanism of action.
Add 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 5 mg/mL
100-500 mcg daily for research protocols
At 5 mg/mL: 2 units = 100 mcg, 10 units = 500 mcg
Lyophilized: -20°C; Reconstituted: 2-8°C for up to 2 weeks
| Week | Daily Dose | Units (per injection) |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1-2 | 100-200 mcg daily | 2-4 units |
| Weeks 3-4 | 200-300 mcg daily | 4-6 units |
| Weeks 5-8 | 300-500 mcg daily | 6-10 units |

PE-22-28 blocks TREK-1 potassium channels, which are involved in neuronal excitability. This mechanism is distinct from traditional antidepressants. Research in animal models showed rapid antidepressant-like effects within days rather than weeks.
