Research & reference information
This profile compiles research and community-sourced reference information for educational purposes. Information may evolve as research and community knowledge develop. It is not individualized medical advice.
Overview
Lipo-B: extended lipotropic with carnitine + arginine + MIC + B6 + B5 + B12.
Enter the vial amount and diluent volume to calculate concentration. If you already have a target amount, you can also convert it to liquid volume and syringe markings. This tool does not recommend a target amount.
Calculated concentration—Enter both values above.
Optional conversion
Enter a target amount you already have and select the syringe capacity.
Calculated draw—Enter concentration inputs and a target amount.
Mathematical reference only. The calculator does not determine an appropriate target amount. Syringe capacity only changes the maximum volume that fits.

Notes
Weeks 1–4
Weekly
1 mL
Start at 1 mL weekly to assess tolerance. AgelessRx standard onboarding.
Weeks 5+
1–2×/week
1 mL
Increase to 2 mL/week or 1 mL twice weekly once tolerated. Energy and fat-loss adjunct dose.
Off
2–4 weeks
–
Optional break between 12-week blocks.
Cycle & Timing
Ongoing 8–12 week blocks; reassess at 16–20 weeks.
Timing
3×/week IM, anytime; typically AM.
Population Considerations
Unisex lipolytic / carnitine blend, dose by protocol; no meaningful sex difference. Avoid in pregnancy.
Handling & Stacking
Injection site
IM upper outer glute preferred; SubQ acceptable.
Storage
Solution: refrigerate 36–46°F.
Use within 30 days.
Protect from light.
There's no real community potency figure for LC216; it's a small-molecule cofactor blend, so the practical limit is sterility at ~28–30 days refrigerated and dark, not peptide potency.
Component allergies (B12, riboflavin, lecithin, choline, methionine, lidocaine) Hypothyroid medication, separate by 4 hours Severe hepatic impairment (choline metabolism) Pregnancy and lactation, specific compounding required Bleeding disorders or anticoagulants (relative), bruising risk
Warnings
Compounded products, composition varies; request the pharmacy’s COA B12 (cyanocobalamin) contains cobalt, allergy possible Methionine elevates homocysteine in some individuals L-Carnitine: TMAO conversion concern in CV disease (controversial, baseline lipids) Injection-site reactions common with phosphatidylcholine
Drug interactions
Warfarin: L-carnitine and choline blends can potentiate, monitor INR if combining Levothyroxine: separate by 4 hours, choline/B-vitamins affect absorption Anticoagulants / antiplatelets (DOACs, aspirin, clopidogrel): bruising risk with phosphatidylcholine Insulin / antidiabetics: B-complex may shift glucose, recheck log if dosing changes Methotrexate, trimethoprim, phenytoin: deplete folate / B12; coordinate with prescriber Lidocaine blends (LC526): avoid other caines same session, additive cardiac effects Stimulants / phentermine: additive CV load with high-dose lipotropics, monitor BP/HR
Fishy odor from choline/L-carnitine is normal, not allergic Inject slowly to reduce stinging Don’t use with warfarin without physician guidance (potentiation risk) Request exact ingredient list and concentrations from your compounder
