How to Use Cardiogen
Complete guide to Cardiogen dosing, administration, timing, and protocol recommendations.
Quick Overview
Cardiogen is a synthetic tetrapeptide, Ala-Glu-Asp-Arg (AEDR), from Vladimir Khavinson's family of short peptide bioregulators, pitched as the heart and cardiovascular peptide. It is a research compound, not an approved drug anywhere we could verify. Honest take: the published evidence is very thin, mostly a Khavinson patent with rat experiments and a few in-vitro binding studies from the same group, and there are no registered human trials.
Dosing Guidelines
Common Dose
No established human dose
Frequency
Not established
Dose Range
Not established in any published study
Note: Khavinson-style bioregulators are usually run as short courses (10-30 days), but no published study has tested any human dose of Cardiogen. The only real dosing data are microgram-per-kg amounts in rats.
Administration Method
Intraperitoneal or intramuscular injection in rats
Best Time to Take
Morning on empty stomach (bioregulator convention, not tested)
There is no human pharmacology data for Cardiogen. The morning fasted habit comes from how Khavinson bioregulators are generally used, not from any Cardiogen study.
Protocol Duration
Single doses to 10 days in animal models
Possible Side Effects
Not everyone experiences these. Individual responses vary.
- •No human safety data published
- •Animal toxicity testing in the patent reported no toxic effects at doses far above the active dose
- •Raised white blood cell counts in a 6-month guinea pig study (patent data)
- •Injection site reactions possible with injectable forms
- •Product purity and identity are unverified for research-grade material
