CJC-1295 DAC (2 mg Vial)

CJC-1295 DAC dosage protocols leverage this long-acting growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog’s unique albumin-binding technology, which extends its half-life to approximately 6–8 days. By stimulating pulsatile growth hormone (GH) release while preserving natural GH rhythms, CJC-1295 DAC can elevate GH levels 2–10 fold and IGF-1 levels 1.5–3 fold in human studies. Benefits may include enhanced muscle growth and recovery, improved fat metabolism, better sleep quality, and anti-aging effects through sustained GH/IGF-1 axis activation. This educational protocol presents a once-weekly subcutaneous approach using a practical dilution for clear insulin-syringe measurements.

Dose
1–2 mg per week
