Pinealon
Also known as: EDR tripeptide, Brain bioregulator
Pinealon is a Khavinson bioregulator for the brain and nervous system. It consists of three amino acids (Glu-Asp-Arg) and supports cognitive function and neuroprotection.
Beginner Basics
Plain-English guide to Pinealon
What it does
Pinealon is a short chain of three building blocks that researchers study for supporting brain health and memory. It's commonly used to help protect nerve cells and may support learning and mental clarity.
Typical dose
Researchers typically use 10 mg per day, injected under the skin or taken by mouth, for 10-20 days per month.
When to inject
Inject or take in the morning. Follow a cycle of 10-20 days on, then 10+ days off to let your body rest.
Storage
Keep the powder in the refrigerator before mixing. Once mixed with water, store in the refrigerator and use within a few days.
First-timer tip
Start with the lower end of the cycle (10 days on) to see how your body responds before committing to longer cycles.

Research Areas
Side Effects
Minor redness, swelling, or itching at the injection site may occur. Rotate injection sites to minimize this risk. Reactions typically resolve within 24 hours.
Some users report vivid dreams or mild insomnia during the first few days of use, likely due to enhanced melatonin signaling. This typically resolves as the body adapts. Consider injecting in the morning rather than evening.
Occasional mild headache has been reported in early treatment phases. Ensure adequate hydration and consider timing of injection relative to meals.
Rare reports of transient dizziness. Sit or lie down for a few minutes after injection if this occurs. Discontinue and consult a healthcare provider if symptoms persist.
Although rare, allergic reactions (rash, urticaria, difficulty breathing, angioedema) are possible with any peptide. Seek immediate medical attention if signs of anaphylaxis occur. Discontinue use and do not re-administer.

Reconstitution Guide
Do not use saline or bacteriostatic saline, use only bacteriostatic water for reconstitution
Do not shake the vial vigorously; gentle swirling prevents peptide degradation
Discard immediately if the solution appears cloudy, discolored, or contains visible particles
Use within 30 days of reconstitution when stored at 2-8°C
Do not freeze the reconstituted solution; freezing may denature the peptide

Molecular and Pharmacological Data
| Sequence | Members only |
Pinealon (Glu-Asp-Arg) is a Khavinson bioregulator tripeptide that supports pineal gland function and neuroprotection through regulation of melatonin synthesis and circadian rhythm stabilization. It is believed to enhance cognitive function, improve sleep quality, and provide antioxidant protection to the central nervous system by modulating neuroendocrine signaling and reducing oxidative stress in brain tissue.
