CJC-1295/Ipamorelin
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin dosing, stacking protocol, side effects, and growth hormone benefits. GHRH analog combination reference.
Overview
CJC-1295/Ipamorelin is a synergistic combination of a growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog and a growth hormone secretagogue used to stimulate natural growth hormone production.
Mechanism of Action
- CJC-1295 — GHRH analog that stimulates sustained GH release from the pituitary
- Ipamorelin — Selective GH secretagogue (Ghrelin mimetic) that amplifies GH pulse amplitude
- Synergistic effect — Together produce more physiologic GH release than either alone
- No cortisol or prolactin elevation — Ipamorelin's selectivity avoids unwanted hormonal effects
