Ipamorelin

Ipamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone secretagogue that stimulates endogenous GH release by selectively activating the ghrelin receptor. Commonly used in research for muscle recovery, fat metabolism, and tissue repair, it offers clean GH pulses without significantly affecting cortisol or prolactin.

Description

Ipamorelin (Aib-His-D-2-Nal-D-Phe-Lys-NH₂) is a synthetic pentapeptide that functions as a selective growth hormone secretagogue. It binds to the ghrelin (GHSR-1a) receptor in the pituitary gland, stimulating the release of endogenous growth hormone (GH) in a physiological, pulsatile manner. Unlike other GH secretagogues, Ipamorelin does not significantly elevate cortisol or prolactin levels, providing a “cleaner” GH pulse for research purposes.

Mechanism of Action

  • Selectively binds to ghrelin receptors in the pituitary

  • Stimulates endogenous GH release without affecting cortisol or prolactin

  • Enhances muscle recovery, fat metabolism, and tissue repair

  • Aligns with the body’s natural GH cycle when administered at night, optimizing GH secretion during deep sleep

Dosage Guidelines (Research Use)

  • Typical Dose: 300 mcg – 1 mg per administration

  • Frequency:

    • Morning, fasted, before workouts (5 days per week)

    • Evening, 30–60 minutes before sleep, to match natural GH cycles

  • Cycle Length: 8–10 weeks, followed by an off-cycle of 4–8 weeks

  • Higher doses may be split into two administrations per day

  • Carbohydrates and fats may blunt GH release; best taken 30 minutes before meals or 2 hours after eating

Side Effects (Research Use)

  • Generally well tolerated

  • Occasional redness, swelling, or mild discomfort at the injection site

  • Rare effects: headache, transient dizziness, or flushing

Useful Information

  • Class: Selective growth hormone secretagogue (GHRP analog)

  • Category: Growth Hormone Peptides

  • Primary Research Focus: GH release, muscle recovery, fat metabolism, tissue repair
