MOTS-c reaction….strange

BayouBammer

Mots tore me up every time. I gave it up. But I didn’t love the results.

I had no reaction doing 3 doses per week of 3.33mg. But I had a huge red itchy welt doing 7 doses of 1.5mg. The welts started on day 3.

I'm testing 1mg daily. I feel like Superman. No side effects for me. It is nice to have energy again.

I was hoping for good things from MOTS. I started at 500mcg daily and got the same red itchy welts so bad that I gave up after my first 10mg vial and gave away the other vials I had.

Luckily, it never gave me that histamine reaction. And I was doing 5mg every MWF.

I am switching back to the 3X a week, 3.33mg each. It's so odd to me that that didn't trigger a reaction, but daily 1.5mg did.

Let us know if going back to the larger doeses eliminates the itch/welts!!! Id'd be curious.

My RS takes a Zertec the night before MOTS and has had no more than a dime sized red spot on 2mg. Red spot gone with in 2 hours.

I am slso curious if going back to a bigger dose 3 times a week fixes this for you. I tried switching from everyday to 3 times a week, but it didn’t work as good for me.. I had to go back to every day.

jackiee

I will pin again on Wednesday and will let you know!

MOTS-C has improved my life so much. But 3 times a week didn’t cut it. So back to everyday. I also just added SS-32 2mg a day into the mix. Will see if that makes a difference.

I researched 1mg a day for about 50 days, and I liked it a lot. Great energy and exercise capacity. I did have an overlap with NAD+ but didn’t notice much difference with or without it. Energy availability probably wasn’t a problem.

Commander

I tried adding in NAD to the Mots-C, I didn’t notice a difference . I am hoping the SS-31 is different

Oh my goodness, I was just about to type a post about this… I was researching 5mg every 3 days (2/3 times a week) my first two 10mg vials, all good no problem, no reaction. So, I thought I’d buy a higher concentration 40mg, diluted with 2ml BAC water - what the hell! Huge itchy welts, which have lasted a week so far! I was so worried, I thought I might have to see a medical professional. But, I think they’re calming down, phew. I just don’t understand why this happened. It’s either the following:

Poor quality peptide, although the supplier claims to third party test - COA was Janoshik, which I checked direct with Janoshik.
Higher concentration
BAC water, although I used a new bottle of Hospira
If this is my genuine reaction to MOTS-C, we’re the first two vials MOTS-C?!

What are people’s thoughts? Should I try a lower dose or will I just get smaller itchy welts?

Thanks for any advice

Sounds like it may be due to the higher concentration per ml of BAC water that may have done it for you. At least that is the variable that sticks out to me.

jackiee

Alright, today I went back to my "normal" 3.33mg injection 3X per week. I skipped Monday. The welts from last week have subsided and it has been 2 hours since my pin today and......nothing so far!!

Lady Hamilton

Hi @Shaqdiesel Yeah, that’s the conclusion I’ve come to, 100% a histamine response. After looking at chat rooms and YT, it seems my experience is quite common with MOTS-C. I’ll have to go back to 10mg vials.

Lady Hamilton

@jackiew1 Hey, glad it worked out for you. How confusing though, you’d think you’d be fine with a lower dose daily.

Pinned the first dose into my subject today. The reaction is very similar to the SS31 reaction. Turns warm, itchy and red almost immediately. the area spreads out left to right on my stomach perhaps 1 to 1.5 inches. and then up and down half an inch or so. But within 1 hour its gone. AI says its most likely not even a histamine reaction but just a local cell reaction to the peptide itself.

But this was just the first pin which was a baby dose (0.5mg) at 10mg/3ml dilution.

@marcoxd Thats a warning sign. This ones probably not for you.
