CJC-1295 and ipamorelin are peptides commonly used in combination for their synergistic effects on growth hormone (GH) release. These compounds are typically used for anti-aging, performance enhancement, or therapeutic purposes under medical supervision.
CJC-1295
- Type: A synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog.
- Mechanism: Increases the production of endogenous growth hormone by stimulating the pituitary gland.
- Key Benefits:
- Promotes muscle growth and fat loss.
- Improves skin elasticity and healing.
- Enhances sleep quality.
- May improve overall energy levels and recovery.
Ipamorelin
- Type: A selective growth hormone secretagogue (GHS).
- Mechanism: Mimics ghrelin (the "hunger hormone") to stimulate the release of GH without significantly increasing cortisol or prolactin levels.
- Key Benefits:
- Stimulates growth hormone release.
- Helps with muscle growth and fat metabolism.
- Supports better sleep and recovery.
Combined Benefits
When used together, CJC-1295 and ipamorelin amplify growth hormone release, promoting improved physical performance, faster recovery, and anti-aging benefits. The combination is preferred because:
- CJC-1295 provides sustained GH release.
- Ipamorelin offers a rapid and controlled GH pulse.
Normal Protocol
Protocols vary depending on individual goals, medical conditions, and professional recommendations, but a typical protocol may include:
- Dosage: 100 mcg of CJC-1295 and 100 mcg of ipamorelin per injection.
- Frequency: Once or twice daily, often at bedtime
- Administration: Subcutaneous injection.
- Duration: Cycles typically last 8-12 weeks, followed by a break.
Precautions
- These peptides should only be used under medical supervision.
- Potential side effects include water retention, joint pain, tingling, or numbness.
- Not recommended for individuals with a history of cancer, as GH can stimulate tumor growth.
