(which admittedly, 1.5mg is about half of what I would normally expect a weekly dose to be). it would be a clue as to the proper dose, and maybe a starting point if no data available and the drug you are experimenting with is fairly benign.
now, I bolded your word "gains" for a reason. when I hear this word, to me, this means gains in the gym with respect to size and strength. But TB is not used for this purpose. 5mg on the first injection and 2mg per week after that is actually a fairly typical protocol.
