Mito Repair
Product Name: Mito Repair Pen
Formulation: 2.6 mL pre-filled pen
Clicks per Pen: 240
Total Amount: 50 mg SS-31
Supplied with: 6 sterile needles (additional needles available separately)
Description
Mito Repair contains SS-31 (Elamipretide/Bendavia), a synthetic mitochondria-targeted tetrapeptide engineered to protect and restore mitochondrial function. Its amino acid sequence, D-Arg-Dmt-Lys-Phe-NH₂ (where Dmt = 2,6-dimethyltyrosine), enables the peptide to penetrate cells and selectively accumulate within the inner mitochondrial membrane.
By supporting mitochondrial integrity and energy production, SS-31 is designed to help protect cells from oxidative stress while promoting improved cellular performance and recovery.
Mechanism of Action
SS-31 selectively binds to cardiolipin, a phospholipid unique to the inner mitochondrial membrane that is essential for efficient energy production. This interaction helps maintain mitochondrial structure and function by:
- Protecting cardiolipin from oxidative damage caused by reactive oxygen species (ROS)
- Preserving the function of electron transport chain complexes, particularly Complexes I, III, and IV
- Reducing mitochondrial oxidative stress and limiting cytochrome c release
- Maintaining mitochondrial membrane potential and preserving cristae architecture
- Helping prevent opening of the mitochondrial permeability transition pore (mPTP)
- Supporting ATP production and overall mitochondrial bioenergetic efficiency
Due to its unique molecular structure, SS-31 preferentially concentrates within mitochondria, providing targeted antioxidant protection while preserving normal cellular redox balance.
Indications & Usage
Mito Repair is formulated to support healthy mitochondrial performance and cellular resilience. It may be used to assist with:
- Supporting mitochondrial energy production and efficiency
- Promoting cellular recovery following oxidative or metabolic stress
- Assisting age-related declines in mitochondrial function
- Supporting endurance, tissue repair, and overall cellular vitality
Contraindications & Warnings
Do not use if you have:
- Known hypersensitivity to SS-31 or any formulation ingredient
- Active malignancy (due to theoretical concerns surrounding enhanced cellular metabolism)
- Severe liver or kidney impairment
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding
- Are under 18 years of age
Warnings
- Use only under the supervision of a qualified healthcare professional.
- This product is not intended to replace conventional medical treatment for mitochondrial disorders or chronic disease.
- Regular clinical monitoring may be appropriate during extended use.
- Discontinue use immediately and seek medical attention if symptoms such as chest pain, severe fatigue, shortness of breath, or signs of an allergic reaction develop.
Dosage & Administration
For subcutaneous injection only.
Standard Dose
- 5 mg (22 clicks) per injection
Lower Dose
- 3 mg (13 clicks) for maintenance or individuals requiring a more conservative protocol
Frequency
- 2–3 injections weekly (for example Monday/Wednesday/Friday or around training and recovery days)
Recommended Timing
- Morning or prior to physical activity to support energy production and recovery
Suggested Cycle
- 4-12 weeks of use followed by a 4-week break
Optional Loading Protocol
- Weeks 1-4: 5 mg three times weekly
- Thereafter: Reduce to twice weekly or once weekly for maintenance
Administration Instructions
- Wash your hands and prepare a clean working area.
- Attach a new sterile needle.
- Dial the required number of clicks (22 clicks = 5 mg).
- Clean the injection site (abdomen or thigh) using an alcohol swab.
- Insert the needle at a 45-90° angle and inject slowly.
- Remove the needle, dispose of it safely, and replace the pen cap.
- Rotate injection sites with each use to minimize irritation.
- Inspect the solution before every injection. Do not use if it appears cloudy, discoloured, or contains visible particles.
Possible Side Effects
SS-31 has generally demonstrated a favourable safety profile in clinical and preclinical research. Reported side effects are typically mild and temporary and may include:
- Mild redness, itching, or irritation at the injection site
- Temporary headache or light-headedness
- Short-term fatigue or fluctuations in energy levels during early use
- Occasional mild gastrointestinal discomfort
Discontinue use and consult your healthcare provider if severe or persistent symptoms develop, including chest pain, severe headache, or signs of an allergic reaction.
Storage & Handling
- Store refrigerated or in a cool, dry place (25-30°C maximum).
- Do not freeze.
- Keep the pen capped and protected from excessive heat and direct light.
- Continue storing under the same conditions after first use.
- Keep out of reach of children.
- Do not use after the expiry date or if the solution appears abnormal.
