Hexarelin (5mg) Dosage Protocol
Hexarelin is a synthetic hexapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that stimulates GH release through the ghrelin receptor. It is one of the most potent GHRPs but may affect cortisol and prolactin.
Add 2.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 2.5 mg/mL (2500 mcg/mL)
100-200 mcg, 2-3 times daily
At 2.5 mg/mL: 4 units = 100 mcg, 8 units = 200 mcg
Lyophilized: -20°C; Reconstituted: 2-8°C for up to 4 weeks
| Week | Daily Dose | Units (per injection) |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1-4 | 100 mcg 2x daily | 4 units per dose |
| Weeks 5-8 | 100 mcg 3x daily | 4 units per dose |
| Weeks 9-12 | 200 mcg 2-3x daily | 8 units per dose |

- 2Inject slowly down the vial wall to prevent foaming
- 3Gently swirl until fully dissolved - do not shake
- 4Label with date and concentration, refrigerate immediately
Hexarelin is one of the most potent synthetic GHRPs, stimulating GH release through the ghrelin/GHS receptor. Clinical studies tested doses of 1.5-2 mcg/kg. It also has cardioprotective effects independent of GH release. May increase cortisol and prolactin more than Ipamorelin.
- One of the most potent GH secretagogues
- Cardioprotective effects in research
- Supports muscle growth and recovery
