Comparison Table: Hexarelin Dosing Protocols for Fat Loss Research

Before selecting a protocol, researchers must weigh GH pulse amplitude against receptor longevity and logistical feasibility. Single Morning Dose 200–300mcg 1× daily (fasted AM) 8–12× baseline 7–10 days before 40% decline Moderate to high (≥200mcg) High. Singl

  • Before selecting a protocol, researchers must weigh GH pulse amplitude against receptor longevity and logistical feasibility.
  • Single Morning Dose
  • 200–300mcg
  • 1× daily (fasted AM)
  • 8–12× baseline
  • 7–10 days before 40% decline
  • Moderate to high (≥200mcg)
  • High. Single injection
  • Produces highest peak GH but unsustainable beyond 10 days without receptor desensitization; best for short-term (≤2 week) studies
  • Two-Dose Split
  • 300mcg (150mcg × 2)
  • 2× daily (AM fasted, PM pre-sleep)
  • 5–7× baseline per pulse
  • 12–16 days before 30% decline
  • Low to moderate
  • Moderate. Requires AM and PM dosing
  • Balances convenience with sustained effect; suitable for 4–6 week protocols with 2-day weekend washouts
  • Three-Dose Pulsatile
  • 300mcg (100mcg × 3)
  • 3× daily (AM, afternoon, pre-sleep)
  • 4–6× baseline per pulse
  • 18–24 days before 20% decline
  • Low
  • Low. Requires midday dosing
  • Gold standard for 8–12 week fat loss research; mimics endogenous GH pulsatility with minimal cortisol interference and longest receptor viability
  • Cycled High-Dose
  • 400mcg (200mcg × 2)
  • 2× daily, 5 days on / 2 off
  • 7–10× baseline per pulse
  • Maintained via cycling
  • Moderate
  • Moderate. Weekend breaks required
  • Maximizes within-cycle lipolysis but requires strict adherence to washout schedule; effective when total study duration allows for multiple cycles
