GHK-Cu Injection pain

[Jill White]

I have heard that drawing up BPC-157 with GHK-Cu can alleviate the pain response to the GHK-Cu injection alone.

Does anyone have insight? Would that render the peptides inactive or if it is done directly prior to injecting is it ok?

 

Thank you, Jill White, PharmD

Hello,

I personally do not us NAD+ SC. I do use 1-mna orally as I believe it is safer. NAD+ excess can actually increase inflammation. 1 MNA, by inhibiting NNMT activity, epreserves nicotinamide availability for the NAD salvage pathway, optimizing endogenous NAD production rather than merely supplementing substrate pool. Also if they can tolerate Nicotinic Acid, I build up their reserves slowly 100mg nightly for 4 weeks then increase by 100mg every 4 weeks. Taking it with ASA and food helps too.

GHk-CU SC – 1mg daily for 6 weeks post surgery to help wound healing, stimulate collagen and fibroblasts. I often then convert to a topical application if possible.

BPC-157 SC – 300 micrograms once or twice daily for 4-6 weeks. I try to continue the BPC-157 orally at the same time. For so many reasons….fibroblast migration and angiogenesis through VEGFR2. This also improves nerve growth. Orally, this is improving gastric lining and supporting the microbiome.

I also use Thymosin Beta 4 SC – 750 micrograms once daily for 4-6 weeks. I know Dr. Seeds has recommended 300 micrograms.  This promotes collagen deposits, angiogenesis, tissue healing and is antimicrobial. I always cycle the TB4 on/off and never continuous.

I basically go through 1 bottle of each as long as my patient is optimized and has good wound healing results. If not I may consider using the BPC-157 SC longer.

I hope this helps,

Dr. Siobhan

Sorry, that reply was about post surgical use of these. I have never combined BPC 157 with GK CU injections.

BPC-157 usually doesn’t hurt.

If GKCU injection hurts then it is probably acidic. Thymosin Alpha 1 is often acidic and painful, just inject slower and warn the patient.

I hope this helps,

Dr. Siobhan
