How long to stay on Rapamycin

I’ve read the mouse research was only for a few weeks induration and purportedly had long lasting effects for anti-aging. I’ve noticed a lot of threads on this forum where people seem to be permanently using Rapamycin.

What are the upsides/downsides to long term use?

Welcome to the forums, thanks for posting.

The mouse study you mentioned was an extremely high dose, something like 70mg per day in human terms, and 3 months for a mouse is potentially equivalent to 7 years for humans.

So the benefit of taking rapamycin longer term is lower doses, fewer side effects.
