What is 5-Amino-1MQ?

NNMT (nicotinamide N-methyltransferase) inhibitor. Blocks NNMT activity in adipocytes, raising intracellular SAM and NAD+ levels, activating SIRT1/AMPK, promoting fat cell browning and thermogenesis. Targets resistant fat depots.

Uses & clinical decision logic

Use for metabolically resistant fat (visceral, subcutaneous) that does not respond to GLP-1 alone. Run 2-4 week cycles — continuous use may reduce efficacy.
