What the sources actually report on dosing

Every peptide and blend on this site, with the routes and routines the published and community sources mention — each row linked to where it came from, so you can check it yourself. We report what the sources say; we don't invent numbers, and where the research is silent, we say so.

18 of 26 compounds have sourced dosing notes; the rest are listed honestly as not-yet-documented. Companion to the 2026 Reference Guide (the PDF links here).
