AICAR
AICAR (5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleoside) is a research compound that activates AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), earning it the nickname 'exercise in a pill' after studies showed sedentary animals on AICAR experienced dramatic improvements in endurance. AICAR is banned in sports (WADA) and is not approved for therapeutic use in humans. This protocol outlines a daily subcutaneous approach for research purposes only.
View protocolAICAR
AICAR (5-aminoimidazole-4-carboxamide ribonucleotide) is an AMP analogue that activates AMPK and is studied as an "exercise mimetic" at the cellular level. Research-use literature describes subcutaneous administration of 1–3 mg once daily with gradual titration.
