Timing & Frequency

Timing

With DAC: any time, 1-2x weekly. Without DAC: fasted, often paired with ipamorelin pre-bed.

Frequency

With DAC: 1-2 times weekly. Without DAC (Mod GRF): 1-3 times daily.

Site Rotation

Standard rotation. Without DAC version requires more sites due to frequent dosing.

Local vs Systemic Effects

CJC-1295 is systemic. It stimulates pituitary GH release through GHRH receptors. Injection site does not affect efficacy.

Warnings & Precautions

  • !CJC-1295 is a research peptide, not FDA-approved.
  • !With DAC version has extended half-life—do not dose daily.
  • !Without DAC (Mod GRF 1-29) has 30-min half-life—timing matters.
  • !Often combined with ipamorelin—use separate sites.
