Never store unreconstituted peptides at room temperature for extended periods
They are supplied for laboratory study only, so never treat one as a medicine

Toxic solvent residues DMF (dimethylformamide) Known liver toxin Associated with reproductive toxicity Must be removed to extremely low limits in GMP drugs DCM (dichloromethane / methylene chloride) Probable human carcinogen Central nervous system depressant Dangerous even in small amounts if injected TFA (trifluoroacetic acid) Corrosive Can remain in peptides as unmeasured TFA salt Pharmaceutical products often convert TFA salts to safer counterions Without validated HPLC, mass spectrometry, and residual solvent testing, patients may be injected with harmful chemical contaminants
When combined with ARA-290, a peptide specifically engineered to target inflammation and nerve regeneration, we see a potential "synergy" that could redefine how we look at healing
