Research Protocol & Dosage
Source-reported examples · not treatment recommendations
- Amount
- 0.5–1 mg per day
- Frequency
- Once daily
- Cycle / observation period
- 8–12 weeks; source also mentions 16 weeks
- Route / research model
- Subcutaneous
The stack page gives a different weekly schedule. Evidence about thymosin beta-4 does not automatically validate every product sold as TB-500.
Titration & progression
A dose range is not a titration schedule. No independently verified stepwise escalation has been established for this source-reported regimen.
Supply & Planning
Compare vial strengths here. A different vial size changes the available material, not the biological dose.
Diluent & formulation
Diluent compatibility is formulation-specific. A verified manufacturer instruction is still needed before bacteriostatic water or another diluent can be listed as suitable for this research material.
Vial comparison
No single complete schedule is resolved for this entry. Enter a documented total to compare strengths; the calculator does not select a regimen.

Material minimum only: round total material ÷ vial content up to a whole vial. Actual supply may be higher because of single-use packaging, discard dates, dead space or losses. No validated multi-use storage period is assumed.
Reported Research Results
Selected observations from the cited research. Each finding retains its study population, formulation and limitations.
- FDA's May 2026 scientific assessment, prepared for a July advisory committee meeting, reported that it had not identified human pharmacokinetic, pharmacodynamic or clinical studies of TB-500 by any route. It described major safety-information gaps and concerns about immunogenicity and peptide-related impurities. The document explicitly states that the briefing is not a final agency determination. [4]
- A small randomized dry-eye study included nine patients and 18 eyes, with 12 eyes receiving the thymosin beta-4 preparation and six receiving control. It reported symptom and staining signals during follow-up. [5]
- A randomized, double-masked study of a full-length thymosin beta-4 ophthalmic solution included 18 patients with neurotrophic keratopathy. Complete healing at four weeks occurred in six of ten treated participants and one of eight placebo participants. The reported comparison had P=.0656. [7]
