FORTIFY Blend Dosage: How Pepti Prescribes Thymosin Alpha-1, BPC-157, KPV and LL-37
This page explains the FORTIFY dosage Pepti prescribes, what the units on the syringe mean, how much of each of the four peptides is in a dose, a conversion chart for the FORTIFY vial, how a FORTIFY dose compares with the single-peptide products, when it is taken, and what can change your directions. It covers how Pepti prescribes FORTIFY, not online protocols. Nothing here is a reason to change your own dose.

At Pepti, FORTIFY Blend is prescribed as 0.25 mL, which is 25 units on a U-100 insulin syringe, injected under the skin once daily Monday through Friday. The 5 mL vial holds 5 mg thymosin alpha-1, 5 mg BPC-157, 2 mg KPV and 1 mg LL-37, so every 0.25 mL dose delivers 0.25 mg thymosin alpha-1, 0.25 mg BPC-157, 0.1 mg KPV and 0.05 mg LL-37, and the vial holds 20 doses, about four weeks. Your physician sets your directions after reviewing your intake, and your exact dose and units are printed on the vial.

FORTIFY Blend Dosage
The short answer
| Product | Vial | Directions | Per dose | Doses per vial | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FORTIFY Blend | 5 mL: thymosin alpha-1 1 mg/mL, BPC-157 1 mg/mL, KPV 0.4 mg/mL, LL-37 0.2 mg/mL | Inject 0.25 mL (25 units) subcutaneously once daily Monday through Friday | 0.25 mg thymosin alpha-1, 0.25 mg BPC-157, 0.1 mg KPV, 0.05 mg LL-37 | 20 | $289/mo |
The price is all-in, covering medication, physician review, refill management and shipping, with no separate membership fee. Pepti is cash-pay and does not bill insurance. Your own directions are the ones printed on your vial.
FORTIFY Blend Dosage
FORTIFY dosage in units, mL and mg
Pepti's directions are written in millilitres and units, because prescriptions are written in millilitres and insulin syringes are marked in units. On a U-100 insulin syringe, 1 unit is 0.01 mL, so 100 units is 1 mL and 25 units is 0.25 mL. A unit is a volume mark on the barrel, not a measure of how strong the medication is.
FORTIFY is four peptides dissolved together in one vial, so one draw carries all four. The milligrams per dose come from each component's concentration multiplied by 0.25 mL:
| Component | Concentration | Per vial | Per 0.25 mL dose |
|---|---|---|---|
| Thymosin alpha-1 | 1 mg/mL | 5 mg | 0.25 mg |
| BPC-157 | 1 mg/mL | 5 mg | 0.25 mg |
| KPV | 0.4 mg/mL | 2 mg | 0.1 mg |
| LL-37 | 0.2 mg/mL | 1 mg | 0.05 mg |
| Total | 13 mg | 0.65 mg |
That arithmetic is a way to read a label, not a way to set a dose. A vial labelled 13 mg in total is not a 13 mg dose: it is twenty doses of 0.65 mg combined. If your label and your syringe seem to disagree, do not dose; message your care team. How long does a peptide vial last explains every number on a vial label.
Fixed proportions
The four peptides are in a ratio fixed by the pharmacy's formulation. Thymosin alpha-1 and BPC-157 are 5 mg each of the 13 mg in the vial, KPV is 2 mg and LL-37 is 1 mg. Every dose delivers the same split, and there is no way to take more of one and less of another from the same vial. If a different balance is wanted, the components are prescribed separately.

FORTIFY dosage chart: units to mL to mg
The chart below is the conversion for the FORTIFY vial, drawn with a U-100 insulin syringe. It is math only. It is not a menu of doses, and the only line that applies to you is the one that matches the number printed on your vial.
| Syringe mark (U-100) | Volume | Thymosin alpha-1 | BPC-157 | KPV | LL-37 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 5 units | 0.05 mL | 0.05 mg | 0.05 mg | 0.02 mg | 0.01 mg |
| 10 units | 0.1 mL | 0.1 mg | 0.1 mg | 0.04 mg | 0.02 mg |
| 15 units | 0.15 mL | 0.15 mg | 0.15 mg | 0.06 mg | 0.03 mg |
| 20 units | 0.2 mL | 0.2 mg | 0.2 mg | 0.08 mg | 0.04 mg |
| 25 units (Pepti's typical directions) | 0.25 mL | 0.25 mg | 0.25 mg | 0.1 mg | 0.05 mg |
| 50 units | 0.5 mL | 0.5 mg | 0.5 mg | 0.2 mg | 0.1 mg |
| 100 units | 1 mL | 1 mg | 1 mg | 0.4 mg | 0.2 mg |
The rule behind every row: units divided by 100 gives millilitres; multiply millilitres by 1 for thymosin alpha-1 and BPC-157, by 0.4 for KPV and by 0.2 for LL-37. Those multipliers only hold for this vial. A chart written for a different blend or a different concentration gives different milligram figures for the same units, which is the main reason not to dose from a chart, including this one.

FORTIFY compared with the single peptides
People often compare a FORTIFY dose with thymosin alpha-1, KPV or BPC-157 prescribed on their own, or with the ELEVATE blend, which shares the BPC-157 and KPV base. The draw looks similar, but what it delivers is different:
| FORTIFY | Thymosin alpha-1 | KPV | BPC-157 | ELEVATE | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| What is in the vial | 5 mL: 5 mg thymosin alpha-1, 5 mg BPC-157, 2 mg KPV, 1 mg LL-37 | 5 mL: 10 mg thymosin alpha-1 | 5 mL: 10 mg KPV | 5 mL: 5 mg BPC-157 | 5 mL: 5 mg Semax, 5 mg Selank, 10 mg BPC-157, 10 mg KPV |
| Typical directions | 0.25 mL once daily, Monday through Friday | 0.25 mL once daily, Monday through Friday | 0.25 mL once daily, Monday through Friday | 0.18 mL (18 units) once daily as directed | 0.25 mL once daily, Monday through Friday |
| Per dose | 0.25 mg thymosin alpha-1, 0.25 mg BPC-157, 0.1 mg KPV, 0.05 mg LL-37 | 0.5 mg thymosin alpha-1 | 0.5 mg KPV | 0.18 mg BPC-157 | 0.25 mg Semax, 0.25 mg Selank, 0.5 mg BPC-157, 0.5 mg KPV |
| Price | $289/mo | $249/mo | $229/mo | $209/mo | $249/mo |
What the numbers show
Three things stand out. First, FORTIFY delivers half the thymosin alpha-1 per dose that thymosin alpha-1 on its own does (0.25 mg against 0.5 mg), because its vial holds 5 mg rather than 10 mg. Second, FORTIFY's KPV is a small share: 0.1 mg per dose, against 0.5 mg in KPV on its own or in ELEVATE. Third, LL-37 is the smallest component of all, at 0.05 mg per dose, and it is not prescribed by Pepti on its own; FORTIFY is the only Pepti product that contains it.
So FORTIFY is not a stronger version of any single peptide. It is a lower dose of each of four components in one injection. If immune modulation alone is the goal, the single thymosin alpha-1 product carries more of it, and it is also available as a pen. What is thymosin alpha-1 and what is KPV cover the single products.
FORTIFY Blend Dosage
When FORTIFY is taken
Once daily, Monday through Friday
Pepti's FORTIFY directions say once daily, Monday through Friday, with weekends off. The weekend break is part of the schedule, not two missed doses. Twenty doses at five a week is four working weeks, which is why refills run on a 28-day cycle. The directions do not name a time of day; if yours do, follow the label.
Under the skin, and where
Subcutaneous means into the fat layer, not the muscle. Abdomen and thigh are the usual sites, rotated so the same spot is not used repeatedly. The mechanisms described for FORTIFY's components are systemic, so there is no "inject near the problem" logic; the site is a matter of comfort and rotation. Technique is covered in how to inject peptides safely.
| Directions say | What it means in practice |
|---|---|
| 0.25 mL (25 units) | Draw to the 25 mark on a U-100 insulin syringe |
| Subcutaneously | Into the fat layer, abdomen or thigh, rotating sites |
| Once daily | One injection on each dosing day |
| Monday through Friday | Five doses a week, weekends off |
| 20 doses per vial | About four weeks, then the next refill |
FORTIFY Blend Dosage
How long a FORTIFY vial lasts, storage and refills
| Step | Value |
|---|---|
| Dose | 25 units, 0.25 mL |
| Doses per week | 5 (Monday through Friday) |
| Doses per vial | 20 (5 mL divided by 0.25 mL) |
| Used over the vial | 5 mg thymosin alpha-1, 5 mg BPC-157, 2 mg KPV, 1 mg LL-37, the whole vial |
| Time per vial | 20 doses divided by 5 per week = 4 weeks |
Vials are multi-dose solutions shipped ready to use, refrigerated with ice packs, with sterile syringes and alcohol prep pads. Nothing is mixed at home. Keep it in the fridge and follow the beyond-use date on the label; a four-peptide vial is not something to keep past it. Cloudiness, particles or a change from what you received is a reason to message rather than inject. One vial per fill, every 28 days. How to store peptides covers storage.
If a vial runs short before the refill, message your care team rather than adjusting anything yourself. If you miss a weekday dose, follow your directions and do not take two doses to make up for one.

Why the research cannot give you a FORTIFY dose
FORTIFY has never been studied as a blend, in people or in animals, so there is no trial dose for it. The evidence is per component, and none of it is a dose study of this four-peptide injection. Thymosin alpha-1 has randomised human trials, but in sick populations such as chronic hepatitis B and sepsis, using the single peptide. BPC-157's human work is early-phase, for inflammatory bowel indications. KPV has no human trials of any kind. LL-37's human trials were of topical application to leg ulcers, not injection. The directions on the vial are a prescribing standard set to deliver one vial in four weeks. What each component has been studied for is set out in FORTIFY Blend benefits and what is FORTIFY Blend.

What changes the directions
Your physician sets your directions after reviewing your intake. Things that can lead to different directions, or a different product, include:
| What can change | How it shows up |
|---|---|
| Whether FORTIFY is the right formula | Immune support alone may point to thymosin alpha-1 or thymalin; a gut complaint alone to BPC-157 or KPV; inflammation with a soft-tissue injury to KLOW |
| Your medical history | An autoimmune condition, immunosuppressive treatment, a cancer history, anticoagulants or pregnancy change the conversation |
| An active infection | A fever, a spreading red wound or a productive cough needs actual treatment, not a peptide |
| Your other medications and supplements | Another product containing BPC-157 or KPV doubles those components |
| How you respond | Reactions you report go to your physician, who may revise your directions |
When directions change, the new numbers are printed on the new label. Never carry a number over from a previous fill. Bloodwork is not required for any Pepti treatment. If your physician wants labs for your care, they'll ask through your account.
FORTIFY Blend Dosage
Side effects, in summary
| What is reported | What it means | What to do |
|---|---|---|
| Injection-site redness, mild soreness, occasional bruising | The most common reports | Rotate sites |
| Early nausea, light-headedness or a transient headache | Reported by some people early on | Tell your care team if it persists |
| A new flare of an autoimmune or skin condition | Theoretical, from the immune components | Message your care team |
| Facial or throat swelling, widespread rash, breathing difficulty | Rare | Call 911 first, then tell your physician |
The full list, with which component each effect is attributed to, is in FORTIFY Blend side effects. Tested athletes should know that BPC-157 is named on the WADA Prohibited List, prohibited at all times, and that a prescription does not change that; see is BPC-157 banned.
FORTIFY is a compounded prescription; compounded medications are not FDA approved. BPC-157 and KPV were recommended for the 503A Bulks List by the FDA's advisory committee in July 2026, with the final determination pending; LL-37 is scheduled for review before the end of February 2027; and the committee voted against thymosin alpha-1 in December 2024, a recommendation the FDA has not acted on. All four remain legal to prescribe.

Where to get FORTIFY prescribed
FORTIFY cannot be bought legitimately without a prescription. Sites selling four-peptide immune blends "for research use only" are not accountable for what is in the vial: identity, purity, sterility and concentration are untested, so the per-dose figures above would not hold. The distinction is set out in research peptides vs prescription peptides. The prescription route:
- Complete a free online intake covering your history, medications and what you want help with.
- A physician licensed in your state reviews it, usually within 24 hours.
- If it is appropriate, a PCAB-accredited, FDA-registered US 503A compounding pharmacy prepares it to that prescription. Lot test results are published at /quality/lab-results.
- It ships refrigerated with your directions printed on the vial.
- Your physician stays reachable for questions and dose changes.

Common questions
FORTIFY Blend Dosage, answered.
At Pepti, 0.25 mL, which is 25 units on a U-100 insulin syringe, injected subcutaneously once daily Monday through Friday. Your physician sets your directions after reviewing your intake, and your exact dose is printed on the vial.
At 0.25 mL: 0.25 mg thymosin alpha-1, 0.25 mg BPC-157, 0.1 mg KPV and 0.05 mg LL-37, 0.65 mg combined. The split is fixed by the formulation.
The number printed on your vial. Pepti's typical directions are 25 units, which is 0.25 mL on a U-100 insulin syringe, where 1 unit is 0.01 mL.
Twenty. A 5 mL vial divided by 0.25 mL per dose is 20 doses, four working weeks on a Monday to Friday schedule.
The chart above converts units to millilitres to milligrams of each component for the FORTIFY vial. It is a conversion, not a list of doses to choose from. Your own label is the one that applies.
At Pepti there is one set of directions on the label, set by your physician after reviewing your intake: 25 units once daily on weekdays. There is no separate starter protocol to work out yourself.
No. FORTIFY delivers 0.25 mg thymosin alpha-1 per dose; Pepti's thymosin alpha-1 vial delivers 0.5 mg at the same 0.25 mL draw. FORTIFY trades a smaller amount of each component for having four in one injection.
Pepti's typical FORTIFY directions say once daily, Monday through Friday, without naming a time. If your label names one, follow it.
FORTIFY is not a treatment for an active infection. A fever, a spreading red wound, a productive cough or anything that has lasted longer than it should needs a physician and actual treatment. Message your care team about your FORTIFY directions while you are unwell rather than deciding on your own.
No. FORTIFY is supplied as a vial with sterile syringes. Thymosin alpha-1 on its own is available as a pen; vial vs pen explains how the formats differ.
No. Take the dose printed on your vial, on the schedule printed on your vial. If you have questions about your dose, message your care team.
No. Pepti vials are multi-dose solutions shipped ready to use, with sterile syringes and alcohol prep pads.
Bloodwork is not required for any Pepti treatment. If your physician wants labs for your care, they'll ask through your account. The free assessment goes to a physician licensed in your state. A consultation does not guarantee a prescription.
