Treating the Root Cause, Not Just the Symptoms
Chronic inflammation is one of the most common—and commonly overlooked—drivers of fatigue, pain, autoimmune flare-ups, and poor healing. Whether your patient is dealing with joint discomfort, post-injury recovery, or systemic inflammation, peptides can support healing at the cellular and immune level.
This stack offers a non-pharmaceutical approach that pairs well with aesthetics, weight loss, hormone therapy, or post-op recovery protocols.
Ideal Use Cases
Use this stack for patients presenting with:
- Joint stiffness, swelling, or limited mobility
- Muscle soreness or inflammation after workouts or injury
- Post-surgical or post-injection inflammation
- Generalized fatigue with suspected immune dysfunction
- Long COVID, fibromyalgia, or autoimmune “flare” symptoms
Best suited for:
- Active adults over 35
- Perimenopausal or postmenopausal women
- Men with declining testosterone or recovery issues
- Anyone with inflammatory symptoms but normal labs
ShineRx Inflammation & Pain Stack Compounds
| Compound | Function | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Glutathione | Master antioxidant; supports detox, tissue healing | Ideal for post-injection, post-surgical, and daily fatigue use |
| NAD+ | Reduces oxidative stress; supports mitochondrial function | Enhances recovery and tissue repair, especially in aging patients |
| MIC/B6/B12 | Supports inflammation modulation and fat metabolism | Good for chronic fatigue and metabolic inflammation |
| L-Carnitine | Improves mitochondrial energy and post-exercise recovery | Helps reduce soreness and inflammation tied to activity |
| PeptideVite | Micronutrient support for inflammation and cellular repair | Supports absorption and utilization of peptide therapies |
Optional additions:
- Sermorelin (for patients needing improved sleep or muscle recovery)
- Tri-Mix (when ED is tied to vascular inflammation in men)
- GLP-1s (if chronic inflammation is tied to metabolic dysfunction)
Sample Protocol Template
| Day | Compound | Dosage | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| M/W/F | Glutathione | 200mg IM or SQ | May be given with MIC/B12 or L-Carnitine |
| M/W/F | MIC/B6/B12 | 1mL IM | Enhances energy and methylation support |

How to Position This Stack
Frame this as a restorative anti-inflammatory support program, not a replacement for acute medication. Use phrasing like:
“This stack helps your body regulate inflammation from the inside out, especially when it’s been in overdrive from stress, hormones, or recovery demands.”
“We’re not suppressing symptoms—we’re supporting your cells in returning to balance.”
