Cerebrolysin
Also called FPF-1070
per administration
A human trial worked out how much to take and how often, so a dosing schedule is shown.
Licensed as a medicine in roughly 40 countries.
The human evidence for Cerebrolysin used the intravenous route. The draw worked out here assumes a subcutaneous injection, so the amount is not a direct read-across.
Work out your draw
These numbers are a starting point — change any of them.
- Concentration
- 10mg/mL
- Volume per draw
- 3mL
- Units to dial
- 300
- Doses per cartridge
- 1
This is 300 units, past the 60-unit dial. Splitting it across administrations, or using less water to raise the concentration, brings it back into range.
Dial range varies by pen; 1–60 units is the common configuration.

Published research contexts for Cerebrolysin describe 30–50 mg per administration. Descriptive only, not a recommendation.
A porcine-brain-derived mixture of low-molecular-weight peptides and free amino acids, not a single molecule, so no single elimination half-life describes it and none is modelled.
A porcine-brain-derived mixture of low-molecular-weight peptides and free amino acids, not a single defined molecule. It is supplied as a sterile solution and dosed by volume — about 30–50 mL given intravenously once daily for 10–21 days, at roughly 215 mg of peptide per mL — not as a milligram amount, so the vial sizes and dose range shown here are nominal placeholders for a calculator that expects milligrams. The human evidence used the intravenous route, so no subcutaneous schedule is established and no schedule table is shown.
