- Mechanism of action
- Activates β-adrenergic receptors in adipocytes, promoting lipolysis and fatty acid oxidation. Inhibits lipogenesis through IGF-1 independent mechanisms, without effects on cell growth or insulin.
- Storage and handling
- Refrigerate at 2–8 °C after reconstitution. Powder is stable at room temperature for up to 24 months.
