GHRP-6 by Apoxar — in Details
GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide) is a growth hormone secretagogue, one of the first peptides of this class, which effectively increases the level of growth hormone in the blood.
This peptide is best used to increase appetite, maintain muscle growth, and burn fat intensively.
The appetite-stimulating effects are essential to consider when choosing a GH-releasing peptide, since they are more intense with GHRP-6 than they are with other, similar substances.
GHRP-6 Pharmacokinetics
The mechanism of action is simple: GHRP-6 stimulates the secretion of growth hormone in the hypothalamus and pituitary gland, and increases IGF-1 production (one of the primary natural substances that define muscle growth).
GHRP-6 increases the levels of adrenocorticotropic hormone, cortisol, and prolactin, which means that you need to take carefully the dosage you need so that there are no unwanted side effects.
GHRP-6 Benefits
GHRP-6 by Apoxar has a wide range of positive effects:
- Significantly increases appetite;
- Increases in Growth Hormone production;
- Helps maintain & grow muscle mass;
- Helps with weight loss;
- Decreases cortisol (stress hormone) and prolactin levels.
Administration & Dosage Guidelines for GHRP-6
GHRP-6 is available in 5 or 10 mg dry lyophilized powder in a multi-dose vial, and must be diluted with sterile or bacteriostatic water before use.
To improve performance, it should be administered:
- In a dose of 0.1 to 0.3 mg (100-300 mcg);
- 1-3 times a day;
- On an empty stomach;
- 30 minutes before meals (or you can take it once before bedtime).
Dosage can be gradually increased for a better effect.
Cycle duration with GHRP-6 is 3-4 months, though it can be extended to 6+ months if desired.
GHRP-6 Stacks
It can be combined with other growth hormone-releasing hormones, such as Sermorelin (aka GHRH) or CJC-1295.
This combination can help you achieve the maximum effect in increasing Growth Hormone’s endogenous production.
Note that stacks require dosage adjustment: do not take more than 200 mcg of one substance during combined therapy, and take no more than 600 mcg in total per day.
