UpMag 5 mg works by increasing insulin secretion, suppressing glucagon production, and delaying gastric emptying. These actions reduce hunger, control blood sugar levels, and support a significant decrease in caloric intake.
In everyday use, UpMag 5 mg is widely prescribed for weight loss, especially in individuals struggling with obesity, insulin resistance, or metabolic syndrome. It is often used as part of a long-term weight management plan that includes proper nutrition and physical activity.
In fitness and wellness circles, UpMag 5 mg has gained popularity for its ability to promote fat loss without the use of stimulants. It helps users maintain a caloric deficit more easily by reducing cravings and the urge to overeat, especially during cutting phases or body recomposition goals.

Reconstitution Reference
-
1ml = 100 units on an insulin syringe
-
2.5mg of UpMag is now evenly distributed across 100 units
-
Therefore:
-
1 unit = 0.025mg of UpMag

How to administer – reconstitution and how to inject
UpMag 2.5mg comes as a lyophilised powder in a vial, along with one ampule of bacteriostatic water
Reconstitution:
-
Reconstitute the full 2.5mg vial with 1ml of bacteriostatic water
-
Slowly inject the water into the vial along the inner wall
-
Swirl gently until the powder is fully dissolved (do not shake)
Injection:
-
Use a 1ml insulin syringe (29–31 gauge)
-
Draw the required dose based on reconstitution (e.g., 0.25mg = 0.1ml if reconstituted with 1ml)
-
Inject subcutaneously into the abdomen or thigh once per week
-
Rotate injection sites weekly to minimize irritation
Summary if reconstituted with 1ml of bacteriostatic water:
0.25mg = 10 units – week 1
0.5mg = 20 units – week 2 & 3
0.75mg = 30 units – week 4
1mg = 40 units – maintenance
Storage
After reconstitution: refrigerate at 2–8°C and use within 30 days.
Half life & detect ability
Half-Life: Approximately 5–7 days, allowing for once-weekly dosing
Detection Time: Not typically tested for in standard sports drug screenings. However, due to its growing popularity, detection in advanced anti-doping protocols may become more common
For athletes subject to drug testing, it is important to consider these detection times and plan accordingly to avoid positive tests for banned substances.
