GHRP-6 (10 mg Vial) Dosage Protocol
GHRP-6 Dosage Chart
GHRP-6 is dosed at 100 mcg–300 mcg daily via subcutaneous injection in educational protocols. A 10 mg vial reconstituted with bacteriostatic water yields about 3.33 mg/mL. This information is for research and educational use only.
Reconstitute: Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water → ~3.33 mg/mL concentration.
Typical daily range: 300–900 mcg total (split into 3 doses with gradual titration).
Easy measuring: At 3.33 mg/mL, 1 unit = 0.01 mL ≈ 33.3 mcg on a U-100 insulin syringe.
Storage: Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F) and use within 7 days.
GHRP-6 (Growth Hormone-Releasing Peptide 6) is a synthetic hexapeptide that functions as a potent growth hormone secretagogue by binding to the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a)[1][2]. It stimulates pulsatile GH release from the pituitary gland while maintaining physiological feedback controls, resulting in elevated IGF-1 levels and potential anabolic benefits[3]. This educational protocol presents a three-times-daily subcutaneous approach using practical dilution for precise insulin-syringe measurements.

Standard / Gradual Approach (3 mL = ~3.33 mg/mL)
Weeks 1–2
100 mcg
3 units (0.03 mL)
Weeks 3–4
200 mcg
6 units (0.06 mL)
Weeks 5–12
300 mcg
9 units (0.09 mL)
Frequency: Inject three times daily subcutaneously, spaced at least 4 hours apart (morning, midday, bedtime). GHRP-6 has a short half-life of approximately 2.5 hours[4], making multiple daily injections more effective than once-daily dosing for sustained GH elevation[5]. Each injection should be administered on an empty stomach (2–3 hours after meals, 30 minutes before eating) to maximize GH release[6].
For ≤10-unit (≤0.10 mL) administrations, consider 30- or 50-unit insulin syringes for improved readability.
Reconstitution Steps
Draw 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe.
Inject slowly down the vial wall to avoid foaming; do not shake.
Gently swirl or roll the vial until the powder is completely dissolved.
Label with date and concentration, then refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F), protected from light.
Use within 7 days of reconstitution for optimal potency.
Supplies Needed
Plan based on a 12-week protocol with three-times-daily injections and gradual titration.
Peptide Vials (GHRP-6, 10 mg each):
12 weeks ≈ 7 vials (based on gradual titration to 300 mcg × 3 daily)
Insulin Syringes (U-100):
Per week: 21 syringes (3/day × 7 days)
12 weeks: 252 syringes (recommend 3 × 100-count boxes)
Bacteriostatic Water (10 mL bottles): Use ~3.0 mL per vial for reconstitution.
12 weeks (7 vials): 21 mL → 3 × 10 mL bottles
Alcohol Swabs: One for the vial stopper + one for the injection site per injection.
Per week: 42 swabs (2 per injection × 3 daily × 7 days)
12 weeks: 504 swabs → recommend 6 × 100-count boxes
