FOXO4-DRI is a D-retro-inverso senolytic peptide that selectively kills senescent cells by freeing p53 from nuclear sequestration. Mouse data from Baar et al. (Cell, 2017) showed fitness restoration and kidney function recovery. Zero human trials exist. Community protocols use pulsed 3-dose courses with months of rest between.

The big practical issue with FOXO4-DRI is dosing unit confusion. All community protocols use milligrams (mg). Vendor vials come in 5 mg and 10 mg sizes. The site's dosing tiers list 500 mcg and 1000 mcg, which are 0.5 mg and 1 mg. Triple-check your math before injecting because a 1000x error between mcg and mg is a real risk that has been flagged in community discussions. Reconstitution math for a 10 mg vial: add 2 mL bacteriostatic water to get a concentration of 5 mg/mL. For a 1 mg dose, that's 0.2 mL, which reads as 20 IU on a U-100 insulin syringe. For 3 mg, you're drawing 0.6 mL (60 IU). At the full allometric dose of 25 mg, you need multiple vials and a standard syringe instead of an insulin syringe. For a 5 mg vial with 2 mL bacteriostatic water: concentration is 2.5 mg/mL. A 1 mg dose is 0.4 mL (40 IU). A 0.5 mg dose is 0.2 mL (20 IU). Store reconstituted vials at 2 to 8 degrees Celsius. Use within 7 to 14 days. Lyophilized powder keeps at minus 20 degrees Celsius long-term. Don't shake during reconstitution; swirl gently. Warm the solution to body temperature before injection to reduce nodule risk.
