How It Works

CJC-1295 is a 30-amino acid peptide analog of GHRH (growth hormone-releasing hormone) that binds to GHRH receptors on the pituitary gland, stimulating GH production. The no-DAC version (also called Mod GRF 1-29) has a half-life of about 30 minutes, producing natural GH pulses. The DAC version extends the half-life to ~8 days, creating sustained elevated GH levels.

Key Research Findings

Common Research Protocols

Research Dosing Range
No DAC: 100–300 mcg subcutaneously 1–2 times daily (morning and before bed). Often combined with Ipamorelin at the same dose for enhanced effect. With DAC: 2 mg once or twice per week. Cycles run 8–12 weeks with periodic blood work to monitor IGF-1.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does CJC-1295 work?
CJC-1295 is a 30-amino acid peptide analog of GHRH (growth hormone-releasing hormone) that binds to GHRH receptors on the pituitary gland, stimulating GH production. The no-DAC version (also called Mod GRF 1-29) has a half-life of about 30 minutes, producing natural GH pulses. The DAC version extends the half-life to ~8 days, creating sustained elevated GH levels.
What are the key research findings?
  • Increases GH and IGF-1 levels significantly while maintaining pulsatile release (no DAC)
  • Improved lean body mass, fat reduction, and recovery in research
  • Synergistic GH release when combined with Ipamorelin (GHRP)
  • Promotes deeper sleep, enhanced recovery, and improved skin quality
What is the typical dosing protocol?
No DAC: 100–300 mcg subcutaneously 1–2 times daily (morning and before bed). Often combined with Ipamorelin at the same dose for enhanced effect. With DAC: 2 mg once or twice per week. Cycles run 8–12 weeks with periodic blood work to monitor IGF-1.
How should CJC-1295 be stored?
Unreconstituted powder should be stored in a freezer or refrigerator away from light and moisture. Once reconstituted with bacteriostatic water, refrigerate at 36–46°F (2–8°C) and use within 4–6 weeks. Never freeze reconstituted peptides.
