Overview
Most metabolic-research compounds in this catalog are incretin-system agonists (GLP-1, GIP, and glucagon-receptor ligands) and related signaling molecules. The published literature studies them for metabolic and body-composition research endpoints. This guide describes how the compound is characterized and what that research covers. It is not usage guidance and makes no claim about outcomes from use.
A growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog studied for effects on GH/IGF-1 axis and visceral adipose tissue.
Evidence at a glance: Includes human-trial data
The cited record for this compound includes human-trial data. Each claim below still states its study type and population, so the scope of that evidence stays explicit.

Researched mechanism
GHRH receptor agonism stimulating endogenous GH release; studied for visceral-fat endpoints.
Described as a mechanism characterized in the literature, not an effect you should expect from use.
What the published research shows
Studied for change in visceral adipose tissue in controlled human trials.
Every citation states its study type and population, so preclinical data is never presented as human-efficacy evidence.
How it compares
| Versus | Attribute | Note |
|---|---|---|
| Sermorelin | Stability | Tesamorelin is a stabilized GHRH analog with a longer profile. |
| CJC-1295 | Class | Both influence the GH axis via GHRH-related mechanisms. |
Reconstitution
Concentration math only: adding bacteriostatic water to the vial gives the resulting mg/mL shown below. This is not usage guidance.
| Vial | Bacteriostatic water | Concentration |
|---|---|---|
| 10 mg | 2 mL | 5 mg/mL |
Storage & stability
| State | Temperature | Duration |
|---|---|---|
| Lyophilized (unopened) | -20°C | 24 months |
| Reconstituted | 2–8°C | up to 2 weeks |
Common questions
How long is it stable once mixed?+
GHRH analogs are less stable in solution; use within ~2 weeks refrigerated (see storage table).
