Which epitalon sellers show a lab report?
We read the product page, certificate and library of each seller. Measured content is what the lab found in a vial labeled 10 mg.
How to read the table. Published: the seller shows a lot report for epitalon. On request: no report is shown before you order.
| Seller | Lab and lot | What the report shows | Watch-out |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1Platinum Biolabs10 mg, $55 list | Horizon Analytical, lot DPS-7825422, analyzed 25 Sep 2026 | PublishedPurity 99.54% by UPLC/MS against a spec above 98%. Measured 9.92 mg. An endotoxin test is marked Pass (1, 9) | Both certificates print PubChem CID 9929972, which is Leu-Arg-Pro. Epitalon is CID 219042. The formula, CAS and mass on the same pages are right (6, 10) |
| 2Amino Club10 mg, $29.99 list | ILS Laboratories (ISO/IEC 17025), lot EPI0002, tested 30 Jul 2026 | PublishedPurity 99.26% by HPLC against a spec of 95% or more. Measured 10.32 mg. Of 8 panel tests, 6 passed and 2 were reported (2) | Identity is listed as confirmed by HPLC, with no mass spectrum named |
| 3SwissChems10 mg, $28.95 list | Freedom Diagnostics, lot 2608-ED-EP, reported 13 Sep 2026 | PublishedPurity 99.49% by HPLC-UV, with LC-MS identity reading Epitalon. Measured 12.79 mg (3, 11) | 12.79 mg is 28% above the 10 mg label. The client on the report is IMT, not SwissChems |
| 4Elite Edge10 mg, $30 list | A US third-party lab, per the product page | On requestThe page says a certificate is available on request. The COA library returned no epithalon certificate (4, 12) | Nothing to check before you order |
A report describes one lot. It doesn’t prove the vial you receive came from that lot, so match the lot number on the label to the report. Prices are list prices and change.

How do you check an epitalon lab report?
| Check | What to look for |
|---|---|
| 1The right molecule | Epitalon (Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly), C14H22N4O9, 390.35 g/mol, CAS 307297-39-8. Epithalamin is a different thing: a pineal extract (5, 6) |
| 2Identity by mass spectrometry | A mass reading near 390.35 confirms the molecule. An HPLC retention match alone is weaker |
| 3Measured content against the label | Lots here measured 9.92, 10.32 and 12.79 mg for a 10 mg label. A result far above the label means the fill or the assay is off, so ask the seller why |
| 4A lot number that matches your vial | Every report here is lot-specific. A report for a different lot says nothing about yours |
| 5The client and the lab you can contact | The report should name the seller as client or distributor, and the lab should be one you can look up |
| 6Endotoxin data, if offered | Only Platinum shows an endotoxin test for epitalon (9) |
Our guide to verifying a peptide COA explains each line.
Is it legal to buy epitalon?
Epitalon isn’t FDA-approved for any use, and FDA lists its compounding nomination as withdrawn (7). In July 2026 FDA’s compounding advisory committee voted to recommend it, which is advice and not approval (13).
On 28 October 2026 HHS announced an interim policy. It says the agency won’t act against state-licensed pharmacies and physicians who compound six named peptides, epitalon acetate among them, as subcutaneous or intramuscular injectable forms dispensed in intermittent courses on a patient-specific prescription (8). The policy excludes outsourcing facilities and products sold as research chemicals or dietary supplements (8). A vial from the sellers above falls in the research-chemical group, so the policy doesn’t cover it.
What does the research show?
In human cell lines, epitalon lengthened telomeres, in normal cells and in breast cancer cells (14). In mice, mean lifespan didn’t change, the last 10% of survivors lived 13.3% longer, and leukemia fell 6-fold (15). A 2026 review found human evidence limited to small physiological or biomarker studies and one older controlled study in retinitis pigmentosa, with no adequately powered trial showing efficacy (5). The full evidence is in our epitalon guide.
Epitalon dosage: is there one?
No approved or tested human dose exists. The HHS policy says only “intermittent courses” and gives no amount or schedule (8), and a 2026 review calls dose-ranging data inadequate (5). A vial label shows how much material is inside, which isn’t a dose. We don’t give schedules here.
Epitalon side effects and safety
Pharmacokinetic, dose-ranging and long-term safety data are inadequate, and cancer-related, immune and product-quality questions remain open (5). The cell study that lengthened telomeres did so in breast cancer cells too (14), so a cancer history is the clearest reason to stay away.

Epitalon FAQ
Where can you buy epitalon?
Four sellers list epitalon 10 mg: Platinum Biolabs, Amino Club, SwissChems and Elite Edge. The first three show a lot report for it, and Elite Edge supplies a certificate on request.
Is it legal to buy epitalon?
Epitalon isn’t FDA-approved. An HHS policy from 28 October 2026 covers it only when a licensed pharmacy compounds it on prescription and excludes products sold as research chemicals.
How much does epitalon cost?
List prices for a 10 mg vial ranged from $28.95 to $55 across the four sellers we checked. Prices change, and the lot report matters more than a small price gap.
Is epitalon the same as epithalon?
Yes. Epitalon and epithalon are two spellings of the same Ala-Glu-Asp-Gly tetrapeptide.
Is epitalon the same as epithalamin?
No. Epithalamin is an extract from calf pineal glands. Epitalon is a synthetic four-amino-acid peptide based on its amino-acid makeup.
What is the epitalon dosage?
No approved or tested human dose exists. The HHS policy names intermittent courses without an amount, and we don’t give schedules.
Does epitalon work?
Not proven in people. It lengthened telomeres in cell lines, including breast cancer cells, and in mice it did not change mean lifespan. No adequately powered human trial exists.
Is epitalon safe?
Human safety data are inadequate. A cancer history is the clearest reason to avoid it, because the 2025 cell study lengthened telomeres in breast cancer cells too.
How can you tell if an epitalon vial is real?
Match the lot number on your vial to a lab report that shows mass spectrometry identity, purity and measured content, from a lab you can look up.
