Ladies, gentlemen, and middle aged peptide creatures:
Good news, everyone. If a relative of yours is losing their mind and you've been itching to stick them with a peptide serum derived from whole pig brain molecules, you've come to the right place. Strap in and squeal like a swine.
I still owe the board a few more threads, since my peptide usage has been heavy as of late, but this writeup was the easiest one to put together.
Introduction
Cerebrolysin is a solution of whole porcine brain peptides manufactured for injection by EverPharma in Russia. It is only sold in glass ampoules. Sometimes lyophilized Chinese cerebroprotein hydrolysate is sold in place of Cerebrolysin – it is my understanding that this product is not necessarily free of prion diseases, which Cerebrolysin is. You can find precise instructions on how to administer Cerebrolysin here. Cerebrolysin must be used immediately after opening the ampoule and must not be transferred to a sterile vial for later use. Cerebrolysin can cause severe brain injury if used intranasally.
Cortexin is a similar, but not comparable, product that is spoke of in high regard.
Cerebrolysin is most commonly sourced from Russia or from Ukraine. Recently, Indian pharma sellers appear to be carrying genuine Cerebrolysin. I purchased mine "nootropicsbase.com". I do not recommend them, it was quite expensive. I have had a friend order from "rupills.com" recently, that is where I will be buying my next batch from.
Background:
My dad is roughly 55. His mental health is a wreck: bipolar disorder, a dissociative disorder, and episodes of rage. For the most part his bipolar manifests as rage anyway. Aripiprazole has been his long term tool for keeping the anger in check. He's also been through a few courses of Thorazine and oral Haldol, both of which are fairly unpleasant first generation antipsychotics. On top of that, he's spent a decade as a heavy THC concentrate user. For roughly the past 2 years he's also been binge drinking, 2-3 times per week. Short form video content has its hooks in him too. No hobbies, no goals, and he barely leaves the house unless it's one of his twice weekly outings to drink and "ride" with his biker friends. Most of the day he's asleep.
Anyway, that's enough roasting the guy.
Administration:
I acquired ten 5ml glass ampoules of Cerebrolysin, 5um (5 micron) filter needles (blunt or sharp work), and 5ml luer lock syringe barrels.
Prior to injection, I warmed the ampoules in a lukewarm (not hot) mug of water for a minute. Then, I moistened a paper towel and broke the top off, and set the other half of the paper towel aside. I stick the filter needle as far into the ampoule as it goes, and draw out what I can vertically. Then I tip the ampoule on its side and draw the remainder of solution from the crimping at the top of the ampoule. Then I remove the filter needle and attach a 25g 1/2" needle to do the actual injection. I would have preferred 27g or 28g. Then I take the other half of my paper towel, douse it in alcohol, and massage my dad shoulder's for a minute before wiping and preparing to administer.
I chose the lats for injection. Cerebrolysin works better the closer to the brain that it is injected, with IV being the best method of administration (once you know you react well). If you're scared of doing lats, delts is the best option. You can find some IM injection sites with pictures here.

You need to have the person flex their muscle and feel around the muscle you're going to hit so you can line everything up properly. If your needle is too big, you can hit bone, for instance a half inch needle on a skinny person can hit bone in the delt. Luckily the lats are really big especially closer to the neck. Once you have your spot picked out and your needle above it at the angle you want to hit it at, stretch out the skin underneath with your other hand like you're trying to tear a balloon, then have the patient exhale, and plunge the needle into their flesh. Hopefully you got it in the muscle. Then just push the plunger slowly down.
Dad was not a big fan of this process. We will be outfitting for an IV round next cycle.
Anywho:
His mood has simply never been this consistently good before. It's been about 12 days since we started. Normally he would have many fits of rage during this time or at least foul moods and raised voices. There has been none of that. It seems that he has become a better, safer driver. Even when he was in good moods before, driving would almost always send him into a rage and have him cursing at people for his own poor driving skills. Since starting the injections he follows the rules of the road and doesn't get frustrated any more. He's also been much more talkative and curious, commenting on things that he wouldn't normally comment on and drawing connections to things he normally wouldn't, and brings up old memories that I don't believe he would remember normally. His daytime sleeping has also drastically reduced.
As far as "cognitive enhancement" goes, who's to say. I will likely try it on myself in the future. Mostly the effects are mild, but they are very much present. Reduction of anger seems to be the most notable effect and it is extremely pronounced. It is very unusual for my dad to go more than 3 or maybe 5 days without becoming enraged.
Epilogue:
Also worthy of note, I had him discontinue his drinking during this time (trust me that isn't what did it).
Also worthy of note, I have him on a lot more than his usual vitamins, put him on my round of B vitamins which is all properly dosed riboflavin, b6, b5, two forms of thiamine, etc, in addition to some boilerplate stuff like pqq, coq10, phosphatidylcholine, minerals etc. For the most part it's stuff he was already taking, just a higher dose.
And either prior to or just aftwr the injections, I try to have him drink 5g of creatine and 2g L-Citruline to enhance the blood flow in his brain before he goes to sleep.
If you don't take a quality B complex, a good trace mineral supplement, and a magnesium supplement, then I think that you are making a foolish mistake and should address your supplemental nutrition before fucking with peptides. I'm taking around 30 pills a day and 12 or so peptides split across 6 or 8 pins and I have never felt better in my life.
I hope that you can some day afford all of this yourself, and Cerebrolysin for your aging, violent biker dad.

But the thorough injection details and that handy link more than made up for it!
