Ipamorelin

Ipamorelin is a GHRP-class compound studied for a growth-hormone pulse. Cited animal and limited human work reported less ACTH and cortisol movement than older hexapeptides. This source set has no FDA-approved ipamorelin drug. Listed seller sizes here are 5 mg and 10 mg. Type the mass.

What is Ipamorelin?

Research-market vials and blends (including CJC mixes) use the ipamorelin name as a listing. A blend label is not two proven clinical products. The catalog talks about receptor selectivity. That is not a body-composition claim. Pulse first.

Growth-hormone secretagogue acting through the ghrelin receptor.

Regulatory status, dated 2026-10-09

FDA product approval

not established. No US therapeutic product approval is established by this curated source set; other countries and products may differ.

Compounding

not established. Compounded products do not carry FDA product approval; legal eligibility is not established here.

Research

investigational. Limited human studies; safety observations do not establish wellness benefit.

Sport

prohibited. WADA S2 lists this growth-hormone secretagogue.

What the cited papers actually measured

Raun et al. (PMID 9849822) described ipamorelin as a selective growth-hormone secretagogue in animal and early human work. Later papers discuss pulse shape and side-effect contrast with GHRP-6 and hexarelin. Those papers do not write a consumer plan. They do not test every seller vial. FDA compounding-risk pages stay the regulatory context for unapproved secretagogues. A 10 mg blend that also lists CJC still needs the ipamorelin milligrams split out before this calculator can turn that vial into units.

We mark the cited papers as C. That is our label for how strong those papers are. It does not say the compound works.

How long it lasts, how you store it, listed sizes

The catalog does not record a single hour value. No verified formulation-specific human estimate in this source set; no guessed value is supplied.

Listed sizes are 5 mg and 10 mg. Blends that also contain CJC have their own cards. They do not share this units chart. Split the blend. If the Instagram label says 10 mg total and lists two peptides, this calculator still needs the ipamorelin milligrams alone before it can turn that barrel into units.

U-100 math for listed Ipamorelin sizes. Each cell is micrograms per syringe mark if you add that much liquid. The table does the same math as the calculator. It does not pick an amount for you.

Risks and mix-ups already on the record

  • FDA reports serious adverse events, including deaths, in an intravenous gastric-motility study. This does not establish causation or safety for other routes.
  • FDA identifies potential immunogenicity and peptide-impurity concerns; safety information for other injectable routes is insufficient.
  • Unknown or incomplete for research formulations; this is not a clearance for use.
  • Unknown or incomplete; do not infer compatibility with medications or other substances.

People using PepBear often log: Existing clinician-directed records, symptoms and dated health measurements. Record missing data; trends do not demonstrate causation.

Questions people ask

Does selectivity mean it is safe?

Selectivity is a lab description from cited experiments. Safety for one person is a clinician question. This page does not clear anyone to use it.

Can I enter a blend mass in this calculator?

Only if you know the ipamorelin mass in the vial you hold. A 10 mg blend is not 10 mg of one peptide. Use the blend’s own card when the label is combined.
