  • Ipamorelin
  • Sermorelin
  • Structure 🧬
  • Peptide analog of Ghrelin hormone with a structure that closely resembles the natural hormone
  • Peptide analog of GHRH with a structure that closely resembles the natural hormone.
  • Weight ⚖️
  • Approximately 711.87 g/mol.
  • Approximately 3357.88 g/mol.
  • Mechanism 🦾
  • Acts as an agonist upon the Ghrelin receptor, thereby selectively stimulating the release of GH from the pituitary gland
  • Acts on the pituitary gland to stimulate the release of growth hormone in a pulsatile and physiologically similar manner to the body’s natural GHRH.
  • Function ✅
  • Increases growth hormone levels, potentially improving muscle mass, fat metabolism, and overall well-being.
  • Side Effects 🔴
  • Side effects include injection site reactions, headaches, nausea, and flushing
  • Includes injection site reactions, headaches, and flushing. It tends to have fewer side effects compared to CJC 1295.
  • Regulatory Status 🧑‍⚖️
  • Ipamorelin is not FDA-approved.
  • FDA-approved for the diagnosis and treatment of growth hormone deficiency in children [3] but is not approved for anti-aging or athletic enhancement purposes in adults.
