What is SR9009?

A REV-ERB agonist research compound studied for circadian and metabolic effects.

How it works

Agonizes REV-ERBα/β, altering circadian gene expression and increasing mitochondrial activity and fat oxidation in mice.

Published research

Mouse endurance and metabolic studies; no human trials

Cautions

No human safety data; WADA-banned. Not a peptide.

Side effects & fixes

Common side effects

—Human side-effect data is limited or absent for this compound
—Injection-site redness, itching or soreness is the most commonly reported effect for injected research peptides

Histamine reactions

Possible at the injection site, as with most injected peptides.

Common fixes

Rotate injection sites (abdomen, thighs, upper arms) and stay at least an inch from the last spot.
Let the alcohol swab dry fully, let the solution reach room temperature, and inject slowly with a fresh needle.
A cold compress for 5–10 minutes eases a red or itchy welt; it should fade within a day.
For mild itching, redness or flushing, a non-drowsy over-the-counter antihistamine (such as cetirizine or loratadine) is commonly used — check with a pharmacist first, especially if you take other medicines.
Start low, change one thing at a time, and keep a log of how you feel.

Stop and get help

Any unexpected or severe symptom — stop and contact a doctor.
Stop and get emergency help for swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat, trouble breathing, widespread hives, chest pain or fainting.

Basis: Limited data; general experience with injected peptides. Educational only, not medical advice.

Medication concerns

Theoretical: no human interaction studies

Diabetes medicines
These metabolic research compounds act on energy and glucose pathways and may lower blood sugar further.
Cholesterol and liver-processed medicines
Not studied together; liver and lipid labs are worth tracking.
Everything else you take, including supplements
Bring a full list of medicines and supplements to your pharmacist or clinician before starting.

Basis: No human interaction studies; concerns follow from AMPK, PPAR or Rev-ERB metabolic mechanisms. Educational only, not medical advice. Never stop or change a prescribed medicine without your prescriber.

Protocols & tracking are members-only

Members see the research protocols for SR9009, plan schedules, track every dose and vial, and ask the AI Advisor questions with cited sources. Try every Researcher feature free for 7 days, no card needed.
