AOD 9604/MOTS-C Injection
Fat Burning + Metabolic Reset
Create an account to view pricing and personalized plans.
Get StartedAOD 9604/MOTS-C is a dual-peptide combination that attacks stubborn fat from two angles. AOD 9604 is a fragment of human growth hormone that drives lipolysis without hormonal side effects. MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that acts as an exercise mimetic, improving how your cells process fuel. Together they burn existing fat stores while resetting your metabolism at the cellular level.
This combination may support targeted fat reduction, improved insulin sensitivity, enhanced mitochondrial function, and overall metabolic optimization. AOD 9604 handles the fat-burning while MOTS-C improves cellular energy production and metabolic flexibility, without impacting blood sugar or IGF-1 levels.
AOD 9604/MOTS-C is administered as a simple subcutaneous injection. Typical dosing includes one injection per day on a provider-determined schedule. PeRx ships it fully reconstituted and ready to use — no mixing required. Insulin syringes and a step-by-step guide are included.

Burn fat smarter. Reset your metabolism from the inside out.
Most fat loss approaches only do one thing. This combination does two. AOD 9604 is a fragment of human growth hormone that tells your fat cells to release stored energy — without the hormonal side effects of full-length GH.
MOTS-C is a peptide made by your own mitochondria that acts like a metabolic switch. It improves insulin sensitivity, enhances how your cells process fuel, and activates the same AMPK pathways that exercise triggers. Together, they burn existing fat while fixing the metabolic machinery that let it accumulate in the first place.
Why do people explore AOD 9604/MOTS-C therapy?
May drive targeted fat reduction by stimulating lipolysis — the breakdown of stored fat — without affecting growth hormone levels or blood sugar.
May act as an exercise mimetic at the cellular level. MOTS-C activates the same metabolic pathways that physical exercise triggers.
May improve insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility, helping your body switch efficiently between burning fat and carbohydrates for fuel.
May enhance mitochondrial function and cellular energy production, supporting better workout performance and sustained daily energy.
May support sustainable body composition changes without the hormonal side effects associated with full-length growth hormone therapy.

AOD 9604/MOTS-C vs. Tesamorelin/Ipamorelin
Both target fat loss and body composition. Here's how they differ.
AOD 9604/MOTS-C
Fat burning + metabolic reset
| AOD/MOTS-C | Tesa/Ipam | |
|---|---|---|
| Best For | Fat burning + metabolic reset | Visceral fat + lean mass + sleep quality |
| How It Works | Lipolysis + AMPK activation (non-hormonal) | GHRH + ghrelin pathways (GH-driven) |
| Scope | Metabolic optimization + fat loss | Full body composition + recovery |
| Ideal If You Have | Stubborn fat, metabolic sluggishness | Visceral fat, poor sleep, muscle loss |
| Can Combine? | Yes — pairs well with CJC/Ipamorelin | Yes — pairs well with MOTS-C, AOD 9604 |
Looking for GH-driven fat loss instead?
Tesamorelin/Ipamorelin uses growth hormone pathways for visceral fat reduction and lean muscle support. Pair it with AOD 9604/MOTS-C for comprehensive metabolic coverage.

What to Expect: Your AOD 9604/MOTS-C Timeline
Every body is different, but here's the typical progression.
What you may notice:
Subtle energy improvements and reduced afternoon crashes. You may notice slightly less bloating and a feeling of metabolic "lightness" after meals.
What's happening:
AOD 9604 is beginning to stimulate lipolysis in fat stores. MOTS-C is activating AMPK pathways and improving how your mitochondria process fuel.
What you may notice:
Clothes start fitting differently, especially around the midsection. Energy levels stabilize throughout the day. Exercise feels more productive.
What's happening:
Active fat breakdown is underway. MOTS-C is improving insulin sensitivity and metabolic flexibility — your body is getting better at switching between fuel sources.
What you may notice:
Measurable reduction in body fat. Better workout endurance and recovery. Consistent energy without the mid-day crashes.
What's happening:
Sustained dual-action fat metabolism is reshaping body composition. Mitochondrial function is improving, which shows up as better energy and exercise capacity.
What you may notice:
Significant body composition improvement. Metabolic markers like blood glucose and triglycerides often improve. Energy and exercise performance at their peak.
What's happening:
The full metabolic reset is established. Your body is burning fat more efficiently and producing cellular energy at a higher level.

Real experiences. Individual results may vary.
The stubborn belly fat is finally going
“I've been active my whole life but the midsection fat just wouldn't move after 45. Six weeks on AOD 9604/MOTS-C and I'm down a belt notch. My trainer says my body composition numbers are shifting in the right direction.”
Brian C.

AOD 9604/MOTS-C Injection
AOD 9604/MOTS-C is a dual-peptide combination that targets fat loss and metabolic health from two angles. AOD 9604 is a modified fragment of human growth hormone (amino acids 177-191) that stimulates lipolysis without the hormonal effects of full-length GH. MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide that activates AMPK pathways, improving insulin sensitivity and cellular energy production — essentially an exercise mimetic at the cellular level.
The most commonly reported side effects are mild: injection site reactions (redness, slight soreness), occasional headache, and mild nausea during the first few days. Both compounds have strong safety profiles in published research, with AOD 9604 receiving FDA GRAS status for its oral form.
This combination is not recommended if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active cancer, have uncontrolled diabetes, or are under 18. Patients with blood glucose management concerns should discuss with their provider, as MOTS-C affects insulin sensitivity. Always disclose your full medical history during screening.
Most patients notice improved energy and reduced afternoon crashes within 1-2 weeks. Early fat loss and body composition changes appear by weeks 2-4. Visible results and measurable metabolic improvements typically occur between weeks 4-8, with peak optimization at 8-12+ weeks.
PeRx ships AOD 9604/MOTS-C fully reconstituted and ready to use. Store refrigerated at 36-46°F (2-8°C). Do not freeze. Keep the vial upright and away from direct light.
AOD 9604 has received FDA GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) status for its oral form. The injectable combination is available as a compounded medication prescribed by licensed providers and prepared at FDA-registered 503A pharmacies. Neither compound is FDA-approved for weight loss.
Nope! The entire process is done online. Complete a health screening, a licensed provider reviews your profile remotely, and your medication ships directly to your door via FedEx Overnight.
Every order includes a provider evaluation and prescription, pharmacy-grade AOD 9604/MOTS-C from an FDA-registered 503A pharmacy, insulin syringes, alcohol swabs, a step-by-step injection guide, and FedEx Overnight shipping.
Yes. AOD 9604/MOTS-C pairs well with CJC-1295/Ipamorelin (GH support for body composition), Tesamorelin (targeted visceral fat reduction), and BPC-157 (tissue repair). Your provider can advise on combinations based on your health goals.
AOD 9604 and MOTS-C are not currently on the WADA prohibited list, but athletes subject to anti-doping testing should consult with their provider and governing body before use, as prohibited substance lists are updated regularly.
