What is Prostamax?

Prostamax is a synthetic tetrapeptide known as a prostate bioregulator, developed by Khavinson. It is primarily used for prostate health, demonstrating tissue-specific effects and potential anti-inflammatory benefits in preclinical models of chronic prostatitis. Although widely investigated in Russia as a supplement, Prostamax is not FDA-approved, and its human clinical data remains limited. Key concerns include a lack of comprehensive safety data and the potential risks associated with its use in certain conditions.

Primary Benefits

Enhances prostate tissue health. Reduces inflammation markers. Supports tissue-specific gene regulation.

How It Works

Prostamax regulates gene expression in prostate tissue through direct interaction with cellular DNA, modulating chromatin structure and transcription patterns specifically. It supports healthy prostate function by influencing ribosome gene activity and deheterochromatinization.

Safety Tips

Precautions reported in community discussions and literature. This is not a complete list.

  • 1.DON'T use if you have a history of active prostate cancer.
  • 2.NEVER use without consulting a healthcare provider, especially if pregnant or nursing.
  • 3.DON'T start with a high dose - begin with the lowest effective dose to assess tolerance.
  • 4.AVOID storing at temperatures above recommended levels.
  • 5.DON'T mix without using bacteriostatic water.

Who Should NOT Use

  • Active prostate cancer
  • Pregnancy
  • Lactation

Safety Tips

  • Always consult a licensed medical professional for dosing and reconstitution instructions.
  • Always double check your units. Mixing up mg and mcg can be very dangerous.
  • Make sure to select your syringe type. U-100 and U-50 syringes have different units.
  • Ensure you're not adding more BAC than your vial can hold. Most vials have maximum capacities listed.
