Overview of Ipamorelin

Ipamorelin is a pentapeptide (5 amino acids) that acts as a highly selective agonist of the ghrelin/growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R1a). Unlike earlier GHRPs such as GHRP-6 and GHRP-2, Ipamorelin does NOT significantly elevate cortisol or prolactin levels in research — making it widely considered the cleanest ghrelin mimetic available for research applications.

Each vial available from SteroidsCanada.ca contains 5mg of lyophilized Ipamorelin, manufactured to rigorous pharmaceutical-grade standards and independently verified for purity exceeding 99% via HPLC analysis. This makes it an ideal choice for qualified researchers and laboratory professionals seeking dependable, high-quality peptides for gh secretagogue research applications.

Mechanism of Action

Ipamorelin binds to GHS-R1a receptors in the anterior pituitary and hypothalamus, triggering growth hormone release through a pathway distinct from — and complementary to — GHRH. This is precisely why GHRH analogues like CJC-1295 and Sermorelin are frequently paired with Ipamorelin in research protocols: they stimulate GH release through two entirely different mechanisms simultaneously, producing synergistic effects.

Reconstitution Guidelines

Ipamorelin is supplied as a lyophilized (freeze-dried) powder that must be reconstituted with sterile bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol) before use in research applications. The recommended reconstitution volume for this vial is 2mL of bacteriostatic water, which yields a concentration suitable for precise research dosing.

Reconstitution Best Practices

• Use sterile bacteriostatic water (0.9% benzyl alcohol preservative)
• Add diluent slowly along the vial wall — never directly onto the peptide cake
• Gently swirl to dissolve — never shake the vial vigorously
• Allow the peptide to fully dissolve before drawing any dose
• Store reconstituted vials at 2–8°C (refrigerator)
• Use reconstituted peptide within 28–60 days depending on specific research requirements
• Always use sterile technique when drawing from the reconstituted vial

Research Protocol Guidelines

Research commonly uses 200-300mcg 2-3x daily (pre-bed, pre-workout, morning) for pulsatile GH research mimicking natural rhythm.

Typical Research Timeline

• Week 1: Initial ghrelin receptor sensitization in research
• Week 2-4: GH pulse amplification research phase
• Week 5-8: Sustained IGF-1 research applications
• Week 9-12: Extended research protocol phase

Individual research results vary based on protocol design, specific research objectives, and research model characteristics. The above timeline represents commonly observed patterns in published research literature.

Research Stacking Protocols

In research applications, Ipamorelin is often studied in combination with complementary research peptides to investigate pathway interactions. Common research combinations include:

• Ipamorelin + CJC-1295 DAC: Gold-standard GH research combo
• Ipamorelin + Sermorelin: Short-acting GHRH research
• Ipamorelin + BPC-157: GH + tissue repair research

Any research stacking protocol should be designed based on specific investigative objectives and informed by current scientific literature.
