Vilon (20 mg Vial) Dosage Protocol
Reconstitution and dosing guide for the 20 mg Vilon vial — a short-peptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu, 'KE') from the Khavinson family, studied for immune modulation.
Quickstart Highlights
Vilon is a synthetic dipeptide bioregulator (Lys-Glu, or 'KE') from the Khavinson family of short 'peptide bioregulators.' It is studied for immune modulation and thymus-related function — research suggests it helps normalize immune gene expression and supports cellular regulation. Like other bioregulators, it is used in short, low-dose courses; human evidence comes largely from Russian research.
- Composition: 20 mg Vilon (Lys-Glu / KE) per vial
- Reconstitute: Add 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 10 mg/mL concentration
- Easy measuring: At 10 mg/mL, 1 unit (0.01 mL) on a U-100 syringe = 100 mcg (so 2 mg = 20 units)
- Storage: Lyophilized: −20 °C (−4 °F); reconstituted: 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F), protected from light, use within 2–4 weeks
Dosing & Reconstitution Guide
Subcutaneous protocol — typically a short course of 10–20 days
Subcutaneous Protocol (20 mg vial, 2 mL = 10 mg/mL)
| Protocol | Daily Dose | Units (U-100) | Course |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | 2 mg once daily | 20 units (0.20 mL) | 10–20 days |
Administration: Inject once daily subcutaneously during a short course (commonly 10–20 days), then pause. Bioregulator doses are low and course-based rather than continuous. A 20 mg vial covers roughly one 10-day course at 2 mg/day.
Reconstitution Steps
- Allow the vial to reach room temperature (15–20 minutes out of cold storage).
- Draw 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe.
- Inject slowly down the vial wall to avoid foaming.
- Gently swirl or roll until fully dissolved (do not shake).
- Label with date and concentration; refrigerate at 2–8 °C, protected from light.
Result: 10 mg/mL concentration
How This Works
Vilon (KE) is among the simplest Khavinson bioregulators. Research proposes that such short peptides interact with DNA and chromatin to influence tissue-specific gene expression — for Vilon, processes associated with immune cells and the thymus.
The family is described as immunomodulatory and geroprotective in the research literature, though large-scale independent human trials remain limited.
Key Administration Notes
- Bioregulators are typically used in short courses (often 10–20 days), not continuously.
- Doses are low; human data come largely from Russian research literature.
- Use new sterile insulin syringes; rotate sites; sharps disposal.
- Document dose, course length, and dates for consistency.
