DSIP (5mg)

DSIP – Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide

What is DSIP?
DSIP (Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide) is a naturally occurring neuropeptide known for its role in promoting deep, restorative sleep and regulating circadian rhythms. It has also been studied for its potential effects on pain modulation, hormone regulation, and stress reduction. DSIP levels can be disrupted by chronic stress, insomnia, or neurochemical imbalance, making it a potential therapeutic option for patients with poor sleep quality or recovery issues.

For Practitioners: Clinical Guidance
Mechanism of Action
DSIP modulates activity in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, influencing the release of several hormones including growth hormone, luteinizing hormone, and ACTH. It is believed to act on GABAergic and NMDA receptors, promoting delta wave sleep and improving resilience to stress-induced disruptions. It may also normalize disturbed biological rhythms and support neuroendocrine balance.

Clinical Benefits

• Promotes deep, delta-wave restorative sleep
• May reduce sleep onset latency and nighttime awakenings
• Helps regulate hormonal rhythms (GH, LH, ACTH)
• May support mood balance and stress resilience
• Enhances post-exercise and post-stress recovery

Dosing Protocol

• Subcutaneous: 100–200 mcg, 30–60 minutes before bedtime
• Frequency: Nightly or in 5-on / 2-off cycles
• Cycle Duration: Typically used for 2–6 weeks or as needed for sleep support
• Onset: Often within 30–90 minutes of injection

Monitoring

• Track subjective improvements in sleep duration, quality, and next-day energy
• Monitor for rare side effects like vivid dreams or morning drowsiness
• Consider sleep tracking apps or wearables for objective baseline
