Compounds and schedules
A compound is anything you take on a schedule: an injection, a tablet or capsule, or a supplement. Add one in Protocol → Setup → Compounds. For tablets, capsules and supplements, see Orals and supplements.
The basics
| Field | What it's for |
|---|---|
| Name | How it appears everywhere in the app |
| Strength (mg/mL) | Used to work out how much to draw |
| Unit | mg, IU or mcg |
| Dose | The amount per injection |
| Every (days) or weekdays | How often it's due |
| Morning / night time | When the reminder goes off |
| Syringe size | So the draw is shown in units on the right syringe |
Powders
For a powder you mix yourself, enter Powder in vial (mg) and Water added (mL). The app works out the strength for you.
Changing a dose
Change the dose in the compound and choose Dose change applies from. Earlier doses keep the amount you actually took, so your history stays accurate.
Cycles
Under How long, choose Set a cycle to run a compound for a fixed time, like 6 or 12 weeks, instead of indefinitely.
- Pick a length in weeks or days, and when it starts. For "every X days" schedules, the cycle starts on the first dose.
- A preview shows the dates, how many doses fall in the cycle, and the last dose.
- While it runs, the Today screen shows where you are, e.g. Week 3 of 6, and a countdown in the final week. The last dose is marked last of cycle.
- After the last day there are no more reminders or missed doses. The compound moves to Finished cycles on the Today screen.
- Tap New cycle to start the next one, with the same length or a different one. Earlier cycles stay in your history, calendar and doctor report.
Switch back to Ongoing at any time to keep going without an end date.
Pausing
Use Pause from and optionally Resume on for a break. Nothing shows as missed while a compound is paused.
Open vial
Under Open vial, enter the vial size and what's left. Each logged dose is subtracted. Sealed vials you have on hand, and starting a new vial, are in the Stock tab.
Estimated levels
If you enter a half-life, the calendar can show a rough estimate of how the level rises and falls between doses.
You don't have to look it up: for common compounds (testosterone esters, nandrolone, hCG, anastrozole, and peptides such as semaglutide, tirzepatide, retatrutide, CJC-1295 with DAC, ipamorelin and growth hormone), the app suggests the published half-life as you type the name. Tap Use, or open Common half-lives under the half-life field and pick from the list. Compounds without a published human half-life, such as BPC-157 or TB-500, aren't suggested. It's a simple model from what you entered, not a measurement. Only a blood test tells you your real levels.
