Understanding DSIP
Format & administration
Subcutaneous injection in the evening before bed. Dosing is typically conservative and adjusted based on your reported sleep response.
Testing posture
Your doctor determines the final testing requirements for DSIP after reviewing your intake. The panels below are what is commonly reviewed for this therapy — they are educational guidance, not a fixed requirement.
How it works
How DSIP works
- 01DSIP has been studied in relation to delta-wave sleep activity, corticotropin regulation, and stress adaptation.
