Pancragen (Khavinson)

25-50 mcg daily SubQ 10 day course, 2-3 cycles per year
10-20 mg Oral Daily
Pancreatic tissue regulatorBeta-cell function modulator

Pancragen (Lys-Glu-Asp-Trp-Pro) is a Khavinson bioregulator pentapeptide targeting pancreatic tissue gene expression. It supports beta-cell function, insulin secretion pathways, and pancreatic tissue maintenance. Relevant for age-related pancreatic decline and metabolic health optimization.

Quick Start
Route
SubQ injection
Start low
25-50 mcg SubQ
Frequency
10 day course, 2-3 cycles per year
Timing
No fasting required

Starting dose. 25-50 mcg — Daily

SubQ injection, any time of day. 10-20 day courses, 2-3 cycles per year with 4-6 months between courses (Khavinson protocol). Pin alone or with other bioregulators only.

Start here. Every protocol below is ordered lowest-first. Begin at the smallest effective dose, hold about a week to assess tolerance, and step up only if needed.

Often stacked with lifestyle interventions for glycemic control. This is the ORAL capsule dose and is not an injection dose. Oral peptide absorption is poor, so this figure is far higher than the injectable protocol on purpose. Do not inject this amount.

How it works

Pancragen modulates gene expression in pancreatic beta-cells and exocrine cells, supporting insulin gene transcription, glucose-sensing pathways, and pancreatic tissue maintenance at the epigenetic level.

Each reference below was re-fetched from its PubMed record, and the quoted sentence was confirmed to appear in that abstract and to support the claim it sits under. Follow any of them to read the source.

Expression of differentiation markers was found to be reduced during ageing of pancreatic cells.

Evidence scope. In-vitro aging pancreatic-cell model; not evidence for subcutaneous human administration.

Claims we could not support

No abstract we checked supports these for this molecule at this route. That is not the same as saying they are false — it marks where the evidence is missing.

Dose/route: 25-50 mcg daily via SubQ injection, 10 day course, 2-3 cycles per year. No checked live PubMed abstract supported this complete molecule/formulation/route/dose/frequency combination.

Primary safety claim: Very well tolerated. No checked live abstract directly established this as the primary concern for the card's exact formulation and regimen.

04

The honest take

Beta-cell preservation

Bioregulatory mechanism targeting pancreatic tissue gene expression. May support insulin secretion pathways.

05

Interactions & stacking

Two different questions: what is documented about running these together, and what is documented about drawing them into the same syringe. A good pharmacological partner can still have to be pinned separately.

Pin alone. Pancragen must not share a syringe with anything else, whatever the pharmacology says. PIN ALONE.

Keep separate

GHK-CuCopper degrades bioregulators.
MetforminPancragen targets pancreatic function. Monitor blood glucose closely if on diabetes medications.
GLP-1 agonistsBoth affect pancreatic function. Monitor blood sugar.

Check any specific pair in the Stack & Interaction Checker, which answers both questions separately. Absence of a documented conflict is not evidence of safety.
