TB-500 Price Guide UAE 2026: Cost, Vial Sizes & Where to Buy
By Amir Arsalan | CoreSup | Updated March 2026
Why TB-500 Prices Vary So Much
Walk into any online peptide market and you'll see TB-500 listed anywhere from $25 to $550 for what looks like the same product. That gap isn't random. According to 2026 pricing data from multiple suppliers, high-purity TB-500 (≥98% HPLC-verified, GMP-certified) costs $15–$25 per milligram, while lower-grade research peptides can drop to $8–$12 per milligram. The difference comes down to synthesis quality, third-party testing, and whether the supplier can actually prove what's in the vial.
For Dubai and UAE buyers, this matters even more. You're not just paying for the peptide — you're paying for certainty. A cheap vial that arrives contaminated or underdosed isn't a bargain. It's a waste of money and potentially a health risk.

TB-500 Vial Sizes: 5mg vs 10mg vs Mix
The market is almost entirely split between 5mg and 10mg vials. Here's how they stack up for UAE buyers:
| Product | Size | Price (USD) | Price (AED) | Cost per mg |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TB-500 10mg | 10mg | $38.00 | ~139 AED | $3.80/mg |
| TB-500 + BPC-157 Mix (5/5mg) | 10mg total | $58.00 | ~213 AED | $5.80/mg total |
| BPC-157 5mg | 5mg | $31.00 | ~114 AED | $6.20/mg |
| BPC-157 10mg | 10mg | $43.67 | ~160 AED | $4.37/mg |
The 10mg TB-500 vial is the best value for solo use. At $3.80/mg, it's the lowest cost per milligram. If you're planning to stack TB-500 with BPC-157 — which is the most popular protocol among recovery-focused users — the pre-mixed 5/5mg vial at $58 is actually cheaper than buying both separately (which would cost $38 + $31 = $69 for equivalent amounts).
Full Cycle Cost Calculator
Most users follow a loading and maintenance protocol. Here's what that costs at different durations:
| Phase | Duration | Weekly Dose | Vials Needed (10mg) | Total Cost (USD) | Total Cost (AED) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Loading Phase | 4 weeks | 4–8mg/week | 2–4 vials | $76–$152 | 279–558 AED |
| Maintenance Phase | 8 weeks | 2–4mg/week | 2–4 vials | $76–$152 | 279–558 AED |
| Full 12-week cycle | 12 weeks | varies | 4–8 vials | $152–$304 | 558–1,115 AED |
Compare this to clinical IV peptide therapy at specialty clinics in Dubai, where IV Thymosin Beta-4 treatments run $550 per session — multiple sessions per week means $2,000–$4,000/month for the same compound.
What Drives Price Differences: Quality Markers to Check
When evaluating any TB-500 supplier, these are the non-negotiable quality markers:
1. HPLC Purity Certificate
High-performance liquid chromatography is the gold standard for verifying peptide purity. Look for ≥98% purity. This document should show the batch number, test date, and the actual purity percentage — not a generic company certificate.
2. Mass Spectrometry Report
Confirms the molecular weight matches TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4 fragment, acetyl-LKKTETQ). A supplier unwilling to share this is a red flag.
3. Endotoxin Testing
Endotoxins are bacterial byproducts that can cause fever and inflammation on injection. Any injectable-grade peptide should show LAL (limulus amebocyte lysate) endotoxin results below 1 EU/mg.
4. Red Flags to Avoid
- No Certificate of Analysis (CoA) provided
- Prices well below market rate (<$5/mg for claimed high-purity product)
- No batch number on vial label
- Unclear shipping origin — customs interception risk for UAE buyers
- No clear storage instructions (lyophilized TB-500 must be kept refrigerated)
TB-500 vs BPC-157 Pricing: Which Is Better Value?
For injury recovery specifically, many users stack TB-500 with BPC-157. Compare the standalone and combo pricing:

Shipping to UAE: What to Expect
TB-500 is a research peptide — it's not scheduled under UAE narcotics law in the same category as controlled substances. However, customs handling of peptides can be unpredictable. Using a supplier that ships discreetly with proper documentation significantly reduces interception risk. CoreSup ships directly to UAE addresses with standard delivery timelines.
Is Buying TB-500 Online Worth It vs. a UAE Clinic?
Dubai has a growing number of wellness clinics offering peptide IV therapy. The experience is more medically supervised but the cost difference is dramatic. A self-administered TB-500 protocol at $38–$58 per vial (139–213 AED) is roughly 10–15x cheaper than the equivalent clinical IV session for the same compound. Most experienced users in Dubai's expat community self-administer subcutaneously after researching the protocol carefully.
Frequently Asked Questions
TB-500 typically costs $38–$140 per vial (140–514 AED) depending on vial size and supplier. A 10mg vial from a quality source runs around $38 (139 AED) at CoreSup.
The most common vial sizes are 5mg and 10mg. For a standard loading protocol (4–8mg/week), a 10mg vial lasts roughly 1–2 weeks.
A 12-week cycle (loading + maintenance) using 10mg vials costs approximately $152–$304 / 558–1,115 AED depending on dosage.
Yes — the combination product at $58 (213 AED) is cheaper than buying both separately ($69 equivalent). Best value if you plan to use both peptides.
Prioritize HPLC purity ≥98%, mass spectrometry confirmation, third-party endotoxin testing, and a supplier that provides batch-specific CoA documentation.
Price differences reflect purity and testing standards. Budget peptides often skip third-party verification. Quality GMP-grade TB-500 costs more but comes with documented purity.
