CJC-1295

Key Benefits

• Increased Growth Hormone Production – Stimulates natural GH secretion to support body composition and performance.
• Fat Loss – Enhances lipolysis (fat breakdown) through elevated GH and IGF-1 levels.
• Muscle Growth & Repair – Promotes protein synthesis and cellular regeneration in muscles and tissues.
• Improved Sleep Quality – Associated with deeper, more restorative sleep by influencing GH pulses during REM cycles.
• Anti-Aging Effects – May reduce wrinkles, improve skin elasticity, and support overall vitality through growth hormone pathways.

Mechanism of Action

• CJC-1295 is a modified GHRH (1-29) analog with DAC, extending its half-life to around 1– 2 weeks.
• It binds to albumin in the bloodstream, allowing sustained stimulation of the pituitary gland to release growth hormone.
• This results in natural GH secretion, which then promotes IGF-1 production — a key factor in tissue growth and repair.

Dosage Recommendations

• Typical Dosage – 1–2 mg per injection, once or twice weekly for DAC form; daily for non- DAC versions.
• Administration – Subcutaneous injection is the most common route in research settings.
• Cycling – Often used in 8–12 week cycles, with breaks to allow for hormonal balance restoration.

Research and Studies

• Studies have shown that CJC-1295 significantly increases both GH and IGF-1 levels without desensitizing the pituitary gland.
• Research indicates improved recovery time, lean muscle gain, and decreased fat mass in experimental models.
• Its extended half-life makes it more convenient than daily GHRH peptides like Sermorelin.

Possible Side Effects and Contraindications

• Common Side Effects – Mild water retention, tingling, increased appetite, or injection site irritation.
• Precautions – Not advised for individuals with active cancers due to GH/IGF-1’s potential to stimulate cell growth.
• Drug Interactions – May amplify the effects of other GH secretagogues like Ipamorelin or GHRP-6; monitor stacked protocols carefully.

Storage and Handling Instructions

• Store reconstituted CJC-1295 in a refrigerator at 2–8°C (36–46°F).
• Lyophilized powder should be stored in a cool, dark location prior to mixing.
• Avoid contamination by using sterile techniques and proper handling tools.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• What’s the difference between CJC-1295 with DAC and without DAC?

DAC extends the peptide’s half-life to days, while the non-DAC version requires more frequent dosing for shorter GH pulses.

• Can it be stacked with other peptides?

Yes, CJC-1295 is commonly stacked with Ipamorelin or GHRP-2 for synergistic growth hormone release.

• When do results typically appear?

Results may begin to appear after 3–4 weeks of consistent use, with improvements in sleep, recovery, and fat loss.
