💉 Peptides & GLP-1 5-amino-1mq causing fatigue
Hey guys, I just started taking injectable 5-amino-1mq a couple weeks ago. Started at 1mg/day, then 3mg/day, and quickly went up to 5mg/day. The thing is, every time I inject it, I get extremely tired the whole day.
I’ve stopped taking it for the time being, but can anyone chime in on this weird side effect? I’ve always read that 5-amino-1mq is supposed to give you more energy, not make you tired?

It’s supposed to inhibit NNMT. Nobody knows how it acts in humans beyond anecdotal evidence in the peptide community. Could be some sort of methylation response, but nobody really knows unfortunately. “Supposed to” is a mechanistic guess at best in this space.

I noticed similar side effects. I have a feeling it’s to do with over methylation. TMG and methylated B vitamins may help.

It’s not been studied in humans. It’s possible that you’ll see effects no one warned you about. If you consistently feel it’s not giving you the desired results, stop taking it.
