RECONSTITUTION, DOSING, & OTHER CONSIDERATOINS

8-week cycle followed by 4-8 week washout period

If you are using KPV for gut-repair, dose any time day or night, but designate a specific time each day that you will be able to dose: consistent dose time is important for this purpose

If you are using KPV for anything other than gut repair, dose any time of day

Daily dosing

Mix with 2.5mL (250 units) of BAC water

8 week cycle followed by 4-6 week washout period

First dose is 5 units (200 mcg), once per day

Increase dose in 3 unit (100mcg)* intervals, only as necessary to continue sustaining benefits

Maximum dose is 25 units (1mg)

*100mcg is actually 2.5 units, but since it is absolutely impossible to accurately measure this on any syringe, we have rounded up to 3 units.
