UpMag 2.5mg 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 2.5mg 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 2.5mg 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.

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 reconstituded 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 & detectability
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.
