    250 mcg subcutaneous injection twice daily (AM/PM) for 4–6 weeks. Inject near the injury site if targeting localized repair.
    Standard
    500 mcg subcutaneous twice daily for 6–8 weeks. Can combine with TB-500 for enhanced tissue repair synergy.
    Advanced
    500–750 mcg subcutaneous twice daily for 8–12 weeks. Often stacked with TB-500 (2.5 mg 2x/week) and GHK-Cu for comprehensive healing protocols.

    Commonly Stacked With

    Commonly stacked with TB-500 (Wolverine Stack) for synergistic tissue repair. Also paired with GHK-Cu for enhanced healing. Avoid combining with NSAIDs during acute injury phases.

    Side Effects & Safety

    Generally well-tolerated. Mild nausea or GI discomfort during initial use. Temporary increase in pain/inflammation at injury site (healing response). Rare: drowsiness, dizziness, mild headache. Very rare: transient changes in blood pressure.
