Research chemical vendors can't legally label products with the real name, so ARA-290 often appears under coded SKUs. If you're shopping and see any of these, it's the same compound:

  • ARA290
  • Cibinetide

Codes shown are for identification only. Always verify third-party COAs before purchase.

What it actually is

ARA-290 (Cibinetide) is an 11-amino acid peptide derived from the tissue protective portion of EPO. It binds the innate repair receptor on inflamed and damaged tissues, especially small nerve fibers.

Why people use it
  • Repair of small fiber neuropathy and chronic nerve pain
  • Anti inflammatory action in autoimmune and metabolic conditions
  • Improvement in neuropathic symptoms reported in clinical trials for sarcoidosis and type 2 diabetes

How it works

Activates the innate repair receptor (β-common/EPOR heterodimer) on inflamed nerves and tissue — without stimulating red blood cell production.

Health benefits
  • Repairs small fiber neuropathy
  • Reduces neuropathic pain
  • Lowers systemic inflammation
  • Improves microvascular function
What you'll feel
  • Burning and tingling subside over weeks
  • Improved sleep as pain drops
  • Better glucose control in diabetics
Pros
  • Strong clinical trial data (sarcoidosis, T2D)
  • No erythropoietic risk
  • Targets root cause, not just symptoms
Cons
  • Expensive vs. generic neuropathy meds
  • Effects fade if cycles aren't repeated
  • Niche awareness
Side effects to know
  • Mild injection site irritation
  • Rare transient flushing
Best suited for
Diabetic neuropathyChronic nerve painSarcoidosis related fatigue

What to expect

Typical timeline

General pattern for the Healing category. Individual response varies.

  1. Week 1
    Subtle. You may notice slightly less pain or better range of motion. Don't push injuries yet.
  2. Weeks 2–4
    Clear improvement in pain and tissue tolerance. Begin controlled loading of the injured area.
  3. Weeks 4–8
    Peak repair phase. Function returns. Keep dose consistent — skipping days slows the curve.
  4. Post-cycle
    Gains generally stick if you also fixed the underlying mechanics (form, load management, mobility).

The reconstitution math

  1. 1Reconstitute the 15 mg vial with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water. Tilt — don't shake.
  2. 2Concentration becomes 15,000 mcg/mL (15 mg/mL).
  3. 3For a 2 mg dose, draw 0.133 mL — that's 13 units on a 1 mL insulin syringe.
  4. 4One vial gives you approximately 7 doses.

Reminder: 100 units on an insulin syringe = 1 mL. Always start at half the listed dose for the first week and rotate injection sites between arms, legs, abdomen, and glutes.
