Overview
GHRP-6 is the classic growth hormone secretagogue — strong GH pulses, and famously a big appetite bump (many users report it as a side effect to plan around). Its short ~2.5 hour half-life means multiple daily injections for sustained effect.
Preparation
Reconstitute a 5 mg vial with 3 mL of bacteriostatic water (BAC) for a ~1.67 mg/mL concentration. Refrigerate and use within 7 days once mixed.
| Vial | BAC | Concentration |
|---|---|---|
| 5 mg | 3 mL | 1.67 mg/mL |
Protocol
| Period | Dose | Units (@ 1.67 mg/mL) | Frequency |
|---|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1–2 | 100 mcg per dose | 6 units (0.06 mL) | 3x/day |
| Weeks 3–4 | 200 mcg per dose | 12 units (0.12 mL) | 3x/day |
| Weeks 5–12 | 300 mcg per dose | 18 units (0.18 mL) | 3x/day |
Cycle
8–12 week cycles max. Inject 3x daily, spaced at least 4 hours apart (morning, midday, bedtime), on an empty stomach. The 3x daily schedule is what keeps GH elevation sustained.
