CJC-1295 No DAC & Ipamorelin Protocol: Dosing Comparison

Typical Research Dose 200mcg per injection 100–200mcg per injection CJC amplifies amplitude; Ipamorelin triggers the pulse. Synergy requires both Dosing Frequency 2x daily (morning + pre-sleep) Aligns with natural circadian GH peaks at dawn and 60–90 min post-

This comparison does not assign a generated winner or score.

  • Typical Research Dose
  • 200mcg per injection
  • 100–200mcg per injection
  • CJC amplifies amplitude; Ipamorelin triggers the pulse. Synergy requires both
  • Dosing Frequency
  • 2x daily (morning + pre-sleep)
  • Aligns with natural circadian GH peaks at dawn and 60–90 min post-sleep onset
  • Half-Life
  • 6–8 days
  • ~2 hours
  • CJC sustains baseline elevation; Ipamorelin provides acute pulsatile release
  • Receptor Target
  • GHRH receptor (growth hormone-releasing hormone)
  • Ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a)
  • Dual-pathway stimulation prevents receptor desensitization
  • Suppression Risk
  • Low at ≤400mcg/day total
  • Minimal at standard doses
  • Pulsatile dosing (2x daily max) preserves endogenous GH rhythm
  • Cycle Duration
  • 8–12 weeks
  • Receptor downregulation begins after 12–16 weeks. Washout required
  • Professional Assessment
  • CJC alone produces weak pulses without a secretagogue
  • Ipamorelin alone produces short-duration spikes
  • The combination mimics physiological GH release better than either peptide solo
