Regulatory status
Research only
This substance is sold and handled as a research material and is not approved for human use. There is no approved label, which means there is no agency-reviewed information about how it should be handled, who should avoid it, or what happens alongside other medicines.
Not approved for human use
A regulatory status describes paperwork, not safety. An approved compound can still be wrong for a given person, and an unapproved one is neither thereby dangerous nor thereby fine.
Half-life
~3.8 h IV and ~6.9 h oral in rat; no published human PK. Half-life is an educational pharmacology figure, drawn from public sources, and is not a schedule or dosing instruction.
Storage & handling
Small-molecule solid; store cool and dry, protected from light and moisture, in a sealed container.

A small-molecule inhibitor of nicotinamide N-methyltransferase (NNMT), studied in preclinical metabolic research; by inhibiting NNMT it is reported to raise intracellular NAD+ and shift adipocyte metabolism toward oxidation. Not a peptide. It is also referred to as 5A1MQ. It is listed here under Cognitive / Longevity as educational reference, which is not a recommendation to use it.
02Is 5-Amino-1MQ FDA approved?+
Research only. This substance is sold and handled as a research material and is not approved for human use. There is no approved label, which means there is no agency-reviewed information about how it should be handled, who should avoid it, or what happens alongside other medicines.
03What is the half-life of 5-Amino-1MQ?+
~3.8 h IV and ~6.9 h oral in rat; no published human PK. A half-life is an educational pharmacology figure describing how long the body takes to clear half of a substance. It is not a schedule and does not imply one.
04How is 5-Amino-1MQ stored and handled?+
Small-molecule solid; store cool and dry, protected from light and moisture, in a sealed container. Storage conditions come from a manufacturer's own label where one exists, and a compound with no approved label has no agency-reviewed handling instructions at all.
05What vial strengths of 5-Amino-1MQ are commonly sold?+
Commonly listed vial strengths are 50 mg. A vial strength is a market fact about how a product is packaged. It is not a dose, and it says nothing about how much of anything belongs in any person.
