Ipamorelin
Lean GH pulse
The cleanest GHRP — GH pulse without cortisol or prolactin spike.
Also sold as
Research chemical vendors can't legally label products with the real name, so Ipamorelin often appears under coded SKUs. If you're shopping and see any of these, it's the same compound:
- Ipam
- IPAM
Codes shown are for identification only.
Your draw
What it actually is
A selective ghrelin receptor agonist that triggers GH release without the appetite, cortisol, or prolactin elevation seen with older GHRPs like GHRP-6.
Why people use it
- Recovery, sleep, and lean recomposition with minimal side effects
- Best foundational GHRP for long term use
- Stacks with CJC-1295 or Tesamorelin for a full GHRH + GHRP synergistic pulse

Typical timeline
General pattern for the Muscle category. Individual response varies.
- Week 1Deeper sleep, vivid dreams, possible morning hand tingling — normal GH-axis signals.
- Weeks 2–4Recovery between sessions improves. Modest fullness in muscles from mild water retention.
- Weeks 4–8Body comp changes become visible. Fat drops slightly, muscle looks fuller. Bloodwork check recommended.
- Weeks 8+Cycle off for at least equal time to restore natural pulsatility. Track IGF-1 if running longer.

The reconstitution math
- 1Reconstitute the 10 mg vial with 2 mL of bacteriostatic water. Tilt — don't shake.
- 2Concentration becomes 5,000 mcg/mL (5 mg/mL).
- 3For a 250 mcg dose, draw 0.050 mL — that's 5 units on a 1 mL insulin syringe.
- 4One vial gives you approximately 40 doses.
Reminder: 100 units on an insulin syringe = 1 mL. Always start at half the listed dose for the first week and rotate injection sites between arms, legs, abdomen, and glutes.
