Is Forzinity the same as elamipretide?
Forzinity is the brand name for elamipretide, the same peptide aimed at mitochondria that this site's profile lists as SS-31 and MTP-131. But what is in every vial is not the same legal product. Forzinity is the FDA product given fast-track (accelerated) approval on September 19, 2025, for Barth syndrome (a rare inherited disease) in patients who weigh 30 kg or more. The approval was based on a muscle-strength measure, and a follow-up study to confirm it is required. A research-chemical vial labeled SS-31 or elamipretide is not that labeled product. The wider study record includes MMPOWER-3, in 218 people, which missed its goals for walking distance and tiredness. This site does not rank brands. Full record at /compounds/elamipretide.
