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

  • KPV
  • Lys-Pro-Val

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

What it actually is

A tripeptide (Lys Pro Val) at the tail end of alpha melanocyte stimulating hormone. It enters cells and downregulates NF-κB driven inflammation directly, without the pigmentation effects of the full α-MSH molecule.

Why people use it
  • Inflammatory bowel symptoms — Crohn's, UC, IBS flares
  • Mast cell activation and histamine intolerance
  • Skin inflammation — eczema, psoriasis (oral or topical)

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 10 mg vial with 4 mL of bacteriostatic water. Tilt — don't shake.
  2. 2Concentration becomes 2,500 mcg/mL (2.5 mg/mL).
  3. 3For a 500 mcg dose, draw 0.200 mL — that's 20 units on a 1 mL insulin syringe.
  4. 4One vial gives you approximately 20 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.
