Thymosin Beta-4
thymosin beta-4 tb4
Full-length parent molecule of TB-500. Broader anti-inflammatory and immune profile than the fragment.
- Half-life
- 1.0 d
- Out of system
- ~5 days
- Route
- Subcutaneous
- Level
- Advanced
Daily dosing holds steady levels. After the last dose, roughly 97% has cleared in ~5 days (five half-lives) — the window that matters for washouts, bloodwork and surgery.
What Thymosin Beta-4 is used for
- Parent molecule of TB-500 — broad tissue repair + anti-inflammatory action
- Studied for wound healing and immune modulation
How it's typically used
Research range: ~2 mg subcutaneous weekly.
What to watch for
- Limited human data; mostly preclinical
- Theoretical cell-growth concern — avoid with cancer history
- Not FDA-approved; sourcing quality varies
Common questions
- What is the half-life of Thymosin Beta-4?
- Thymosin Beta-4 has an approximate elimination half-life of 1.0 d. Daily dosing holds steady levels.
- How long does Thymosin Beta-4 stay in your system?
- Roughly 97% of a dose has cleared after five half-lives — about ~5 days for Thymosin Beta-4. That is the window that matters for washouts, bloodwork and surgery.
- How is Thymosin Beta-4 taken?
- Thymosin Beta-4 is typically administered by the subcutaneous route. Research range: ~2 mg subcutaneous weekly.
- What are the risks of Thymosin Beta-4?
- Limited human data; mostly preclinical Theoretical cell-growth concern — avoid with cancer history Not FDA-approved; sourcing quality varies
About Healing & recovery
- What they are
- Repair peptides — short amino-acid chains studied for soft-tissue, tendon, and gut-lining healing. Almost all the evidence is animal or preclinical; human trials are scarce.
- How they're run
- Reconstituted from a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder and injected subcutaneously, usually daily, in blocks of 4–6 weeks around a specific injury.
- What to watch
- None are approved drugs, so purity depends entirely on the source. Effects are gradual — judge a block by whether the injury measurably improved, not by how you feel on day 3.
