Human dosing
| Period / condition | Dose | Escalation |
|---|---|---|
| Start | 100 mcg SubQ, evening before bed | Starting dose |
| Standard regimen | 250 mcg SubQ, evening before bed | Increase if needed |
| Upper bound | up to 500 mcg SubQ | Maximum in this schedule |
Background on the molecule, its mechanism and primary sources is covered in the monograph.
Practical dosing and effect details
DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is described mostly in the context of the physiological sleep-onset window, so regimens from public sources call for one evening injection, 30–120 minutes before bed, rather than several doses a day. That sets it apart from most other research peptides on this site, where the dose is split across multiple daily injections.
The escalation on this page, from 100 mcg at the start to 250 mcg in the standard regimen and up to 500 mcg as the upper bound, leaves the timing unchanged: only the amount per evening injection changes, not the frequency. DSIP, a short nonapeptide of nine amino acids, clears from blood quickly, so a single evening injection is timed to the sleep-onset window rather than meant to hold a steady concentration until morning. Controlled human trials of DSIP are scarce, so the figures above summarize community observations and protocols rather than a randomized study.

How to reconstitute
An example reconstitution for convenient dosing. The exact ratios depend on your vial. For research reference only — not medical guidance.
- 1Add the diluentUse bacteriostatic water. Example: 2 ml into a 10 mg vial.DSIP (Delta sleep-inducing peptide)10 mg+ 2 mlDiluent
- 2Get the concentrationExample: 10 mg in 2 ml =DSIP (Delta sleep-inducing peptide)5 mg/ml(5,000 mcg/ml)
- 3Work out the volume per doseFor example, for a 0.25 mg dose:0.25 mg = 0.05 ml= 5 u. (U-100)
This is only an example calculation. You can use a different diluent volume — plug your own numbers into the calculator. Open calculator →
Research protocols
DSIP: reference regimens
Controlled data on this compound are limited.
In human clinical studies DSIP was usually given intravenously, most often at 25 nmol/kg (≈21 mcg/kg).
DSIP dosing in community protocols is always tied to evening timing rather than spread through the day, matching the compound's very short half-life and its studied role in the sleep-onset window rather than in maintaining a steady blood level.
