GHRP-6 (5mg) Dosage Protocol
GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is a hexapeptide that stimulates GH release through the ghrelin receptor. It also significantly increases appetite.
Add 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 2.5 mg/mL (2500 mcg/mL)
100 mcg 2-3 times daily (200-300 mcg total)
At 2.5 mg/mL: 4 units = 100 mcg
Lyophilized: -20°C; Reconstituted: 2-8°C for up to 4 weeks
| Week | Daily Dose | Units (per injection) |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1-4 | 100 mcg 2x daily | 4 units per dose |
| Weeks 5-8 | 100 mcg 3x daily | 4 units per dose |
| Weeks 9-12 | 100-150 mcg 3x daily | 4-6 units per dose |

GHRP-6 stimulates GH release through the ghrelin/GHS receptor. Phase I studies tested doses of 100, 200, and 400 mcg/kg. Half-life is approximately 2.5 hours. Unlike Ipamorelin, GHRP-6 significantly increases appetite and may raise cortisol and prolactin.
- Potent GH release stimulation
- Increases appetite significantly
- Supports muscle growth and recovery
- May improve sleep quality
