BPC-157 is a synthetic peptide derived from a protective protein found in human gastric juice. It consists of 15 amino acids and is widely studied for tissue repair and regeneration research.

Protocol Overview

Compound BPC-157 (Body Protection Compound-157) Category Research Peptide Vial Size 10mg (10,000mcg) Reconstitution 2mL bacteriostatic water (5mg/mL) Route Subcutaneous injection Frequency 5 days/week

Reconstitution Instructions

Using 2mL of bacteriostatic water results in a concentration of 5mg/mL (5,000mcg/mL). Always use sterile techniques.

Materials Needed

10mg BPC-157 vial (lyophilized powder) 2mL bacteriostatic water (sterile, preserved with 0.9% benzyl alcohol) Sterile syringe and needle (18-22 gauge for drawing) Alcohol swabs Clean workspace

Step-by-Step Process

Preparation: Allow the BPC-157 vial and bacteriostatic water to reach room temperature. Wipe the rubber stoppers of both vials with an alcohol swab. Draw the Water: Using a sterile syringe, draw up exactly 2mL of bacteriostatic water. Expel any air bubbles. Inject into Vial: Insert the needle through the rubber stopper at a slight angle, aiming toward the glass wall. Slowly inject the water down the side of the vial to avoid foaming. Mix Gently: Remove the needle. Gently swirl or roll the vial between your hands. Do not shake vigorously. Check for Clarity: The solution should be clear once fully reconstituted. Do not use if cloudy.
