What is BPC-157?
BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) is a synthetic peptide derived from a protein found in human gastric juice. It has been studied extensively for its potential regenerative and healing properties.
Standard BPC-157 Dosing Protocols
BPC-157 dosing is typically calculated based on body weight or follows standardized protocols:
Common Dosage Ranges
- Conservative dose: 200-300mcg per day
- Standard dose: 250-500mcg per day
- Higher dose: 500-750mcg per day (often split into 2 doses)
Weight-Based Calculation
Some protocols use 2-10mcg per kg of body weight. For a 80kg (176lb) person:
- Conservative: 160-320mcg/day
- Moderate: 400-500mcg/day
- Higher: 600-800mcg/day
How to Reconstitute BPC-157
BPC-157 typically comes in 5mg vials. Here's how to reconstitute:
Recommended Reconstitution
| Vial Size | BAC Water | Concentration | 250mcg Dose |
|---|---|---|---|
| 5mg | 2mL | 2.5mg/mL | 10 units (0.1mL) |
| 5mg | 2.5mL | 2mg/mL | 12.5 units |
Administration Methods
Subcutaneous Injection
The most common method. Inject into the fatty tissue of the abdomen, thigh, or near the injury site.
Injection Near Injury Site
For localized injuries, injecting as close to the affected area as possible may provide targeted benefits. Keep the injection within 2-3 inches of the injury.
Timing Recommendations
- Once daily: Morning or evening, consistency matters more than timing
- Twice daily: Split the dose - morning and evening, 8-12 hours apart
- Fasted or fed: BPC-157 can be taken with or without food
Typical Protocol Duration
Most protocols run for 4-8 weeks, followed by a break. Common cycles include:
- 4 weeks on, 2 weeks off
- 6 weeks on, 4 weeks off
- 8 weeks on, 4 weeks off
Storage Instructions
- Before reconstitution: Store in freezer or refrigerator
- After reconstitution: Refrigerate at 36-46°F (2-8°C)
- Stability: Use within 28-30 days of reconstitution
