This protocol is an educational example only. It does not apply to your specific health situation. Medical supervision is required. Peptide therapy is not approved by regulatory bodies for many of the described indications.
Protocol Stack
Thymosin Alpha-1
PrimaryDose
1.5 mg
Frequency
2x/week SC
Timing
Morning, consistent days (e.g., Mon/Thu)
Duration
12 weeks
LL-37 (Cathelicidin)
SupportingDose
100 mcg
Frequency
3x/week SC
Timing
Morning
Duration
Weeks 1β8, then reassess
Thymosin Beta-4 (TB-500)
OptionalDose
1.5 mg
Frequency
1x/week SC
Timing
Any time
Duration
Weeks 1β12 (adjuvant tissue support)
Monitoring Parameters
- βComplete blood count with differential β baseline, week 6, week 12
- βNK cell activity (functional assay if available)
- βT-cell subset panel (CD4/CD8 ratio) β baseline and week 12
- βInflammatory markers: hsCRP, IL-6, TNF-Ξ± β baseline, week 6, week 12
- βInfection log (frequency and severity of illnesses during protocol)
- βFatigue score (FSS or MFI-20) β monthly
Expected Outcomes
Weeks 1β4: LL-37 antimicrobial action immediate; patients often report fewer acute infections
Weeks 4β8: T-cell proliferation increases, NK cell activity normalizing
Weeks 8β12: Sustained immune competence; fatigue scores typically improve by 40β60%
Post-protocol: Consider quarterly TA-1 maintenance (4 weeks on, 8 weeks off)
Contraindications
- βAutoimmune disease requiring systemic immunosuppression (relative β consult specialist)
- βActive solid organ transplant with rejection risk
- βKnown hypersensitivity to any component
- βLL-37 should not be used in patients with active autoimmune skin conditions
Clinical Notes
Thymosin Alpha-1 is FDA-approved in Italy and China for hepatitis B β the strongest peptide evidence base for immune modulation. LL-37 bridges innate and adaptive immunity and has direct antiviral activity against enveloped viruses (including coronaviruses). This combination is evidence-informed for long COVID immune dysregulation.
Case Study
Clinical Practice Example
Female, 58, with long COVID β 18 months post-infection with persistent fatigue (FSS 48/63), recurring sinus infections every 4β6 weeks, and CD4/CD8 ratio 0.8 (inverted). Started TA-1 + LL-37. At week 6: no sinus infections, FSS improved to 34. At week 12: CD4/CD8 ratio normalized to 1.6, FSS 22. No infections in the following 6 months.
