CARNITOR injection is labeled for specified metabolic disorders and prevention/treatment of deficiency in dialysis patients. This does not establish a performance benefit.
What does it do?
Levocarnitine supports fatty-acid transport; prescription products treat specified deficiency states. Oral supplements and carnitine derivatives have different evidence from IV treatment.

Study outcomes
A recent exercise trial was negative
The 2025 placebo-controlled crossover study did not find improved CrossFit performance after acute L-carnitine supplementation. It does not evaluate injectable use.1
Route-specific clinical research
A dialysis trial compared 500 mg orally three times daily with 20 mg/kg IV after dialysis for 24 weeks. Its anemia findings cannot establish fat-loss or performance benefit.2
