CJC-1295
GHRH analog often paired with Ipamorelin for pulsatile support.
Mechanism of Action
A synthetic analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). The non-DAC version has a short half-life that preserves pulsatile GH release, while DAC variants extend the half-life via albumin binding. Research focuses on stimulating endogenous GH and IGF-1 production via the pituitary.
Research Areas
Common Research Protocols
Combined with Ipamorelin in research to layer GHRH + ghrelin-mimetic signaling for pulsatile GH release.
Studied as longer-acting GH elevation in clinical pharmacology trials.
Protocols summarized for educational reference from published research. Not dosing guidance.
Cited Research
Sustained pharmacological GH activity in healthy adults via DAC technology
Established prolonged GH/IGF-1 elevation from single subcutaneous doses.

Important Considerations
- •GH-axis manipulation may affect glucose tolerance.
- •Banned in competitive sport (WADA).
- •Requires physician oversight in any therapeutic context.
