Quick answers

What does it cost?

$118 to $301 per box, depending on strength and supply. Shipping is $32 per order, shown before you pay. There is no subscription: you pay per box.

Who should not use it?

It is not suitable for animals with diabetes or impaired glucose regulation, an active infection, significant liver disease, a planned surgery, or that are pregnant or nursing. Rapamycin can raise blood fats, so bloodwork before and during use matters. Talk to your veterinarian before starting.

How fast is delivery?

Every parcel ships tracked. Typical delivery once it ships: Europe 2–4 days, Türkiye 1–3 days, Gulf (GCC) 3–6 days, Rest of Asia 4–8 days, North America 4–8 days, Oceania 5–9 days.

Do I need a prescription?

It is a prescription medicine. Use it only under the guidance of your own veterinarian, and only where the law of your country allows it.

Can I return it?

If your box arrives damaged or wrong, we replace or refund it. In the EU and the UK you can withdraw within 14 days of delivery and return an unopened box; a box whose seal has been broken cannot be returned, for health-protection reasons.

More healthy years by your side

Rapamycin is the most studied longevity compound in veterinary medicine — extending healthy lifespan by up to 14% in mammalian studies and now the subject of the NIH-funded Dog Aging Project’s TRIAD trial.

What it does

  • Heart — supports cardiac function; studies in older dogs showed improved heart performance within months.
  • Cancer — mTOR inhibition is being studied against the cancers that take dogs most often: lymphoma, mast cell tumors, hemangiosarcoma.
  • Inflammation — reduces the chronic, low-grade inflammation that drives age-related pain and stiffness.
  • Immunity — at low doses, rapamycin improves immune response rather than suppressing it.

How the therapy works

One tablet or capsule once a week, with food — the once-weekly schedule used in the current TRIAD longevity protocol. Dosing is based on your dog’s body weight — confirm the right strength and schedule with your own veterinarian before starting. Best suited to healthy, middle-aged and senior dogs.

Guided by your own veterinarian

Rapamycin is a prescription medicine. Use it only under the guidance of your own veterinarian, who can review your dog’s health history, confirm the dose and plan the monitoring. Side effects at longevity doses are uncommon and typically limited to transient stomach upset. Lab-tested to a 99.9% purity standard.

Rapavie and Rapamune are the same molecule, not the same medicine

Rapamune is the human transplant product. People find it when they search sirolimus, and the difference is worth a minute.
