Epitalon half-life & how long it lasts

By Melvin Morina · Updated 2026-07-27 · not FDA approved

Epitalon has a half-life of about 1 hours, reaches peak concentration around 30 minutes after a dose, and is practically cleared from the body about 5 hours after the last dose. Essentially no published human pharmacokinetic data; the figure is an estimate.

Track it instead of estimating it

Bo models this curve from your own logged doses, so you can see what is still in your system right now instead of doing the arithmetic. It also handles reconstitution math, dose reminders and injection-site rotation.
