- TB-500
- Actin-binding, cell migration, angiogenesis
- 7–10 days (soft tissue healing indicators)
- 21–28 days (structural muscle repair)
- 2–5mg twice weekly
- Best for deep tissue injuries requiring sustained cell migration and vascular support. Slower onset but superior structural repair
- BPC-157
- Growth factor modulation, angiogenesis
- 3–5 days (inflammation reduction, pain relief)
- 14–21 days (tendon and ligament repair)
- 250–500mcg daily
- Fastest initial symptom relief, ideal for gastrointestinal and connective tissue injuries. Pairs well with TB-500 for comprehensive recovery
- GHK-Cu
- Collagen synthesis, metalloproteinase regulation
- 5–7 days (wound healing, skin repair)
- 14–21 days (dermal remodelling)
- 1–2mg three times weekly
- Excellent for surface wounds and dermal injuries. Limited deep muscle repair capacity compared to TB-500
- Ipamorelin
- Growth hormone secretagogue
- 10–14 days (systemic recovery support)
- 28–42 days (muscle hypertrophy support)
- 200–300mcg daily
- Indirect recovery support through GH elevation. Not injury-specific like TB-500
- TB-500 stands out for deep structural muscle injuries where cell migration and angiogenesis are rate-limiting factors. Researchers working with acute injuries often combine TB-500 with BPC-157 to address both migration kinetics (TB-500) and inflammation modulation (BPC-157) simultaneously. But that combination still respects the 21–28 day timeline for peak muscle recovery.
