Growth Hormone Support & Anti-Aging
1.5 mg CJC-1295 / 2.5 mg Ipamorelin per mL
The gold standard combination in growth hormone peptide therapy. CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin work synergistically to amplify your body's own GH production — supporting deeper sleep, body composition, recovery, and the markers of healthy aging.
About the Combination
CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin are two complementary peptides that together create a powerful growth hormone-stimulating effect. This combination is considered the gold standard in GH peptide therapy.
CJC-1295 is a synthetic GHRH (growth hormone-releasing hormone) analog — it signals your pituitary to release growth hormone.
Ipamorelin is a ghrelin mimetic — it amplifies GH release and simultaneously suppresses somatostatin, the hormone that shuts down GH production.
Together, they create a synergistic effect: more robust GH pulses, sustained signaling, and better overall results than either peptide alone.
Mechanisms
This dual-action combination works through your body's natural GH signaling:
Common Applications
This GH-supporting combination is used by patients seeking improved recovery, body composition, sleep quality, and markers of healthy aging.
GH is released during deep sleep. This combination enhances natural sleep architecture and restorative sleep cycles.
Growth hormone supports lean mass and metabolic health. Patients often report improved muscle definition and reduced body fat.
GH supports tissue repair, protein synthesis, and recovery between training sessions — ideal during active training phases.
GH is associated with skin elasticity, joint health, and general sense of vitality — supporting healthy aging markers.
Growth hormone influences lipid profiles, glucose metabolism, and overall metabolic resilience.
GH accelerates healing and recovery. Often used post-surgery with surgeon approval and clinical oversight.
Protocol
Your clinician will design your dosing protocol based on your goals, labs, age, and response. The information below is provided for context — your exact dosing will be prescribed at consultation.
Each 1 mL of your vial contains 1.5 mg CJC-1295 and 2.5 mg Ipamorelin, allowing flexibility for various protocols and titration schedules.
Most protocols involve subcutaneous injection in the evening, close to bedtime, to align with the natural GH pulse during sleep.
These are context ranges only. Your clinician will provide your personalized dosing instructions during consultation.
Timeline
Growth hormone effects are cumulative — early changes are subtle but build over time. Most pronounced benefits appear by week 6–8.
Most patients notice improved sleep quality and deeper rest first. Morning alertness and recovery between workouts may improve early.
Increased daytime energy, improved workout performance, and faster recovery from exercise become apparent. Some report early body composition shifts.
The most pronounced benefits emerge during this window. Noticeable improvements in muscle definition, body composition, and recovery capacity.
Many patients hold their gains in body composition and sleep quality. Some opt for periodic courses (2–3 times per year) to maintain benefits, especially during active training phases.
Questions
Choose Your Protocol
Both support growth hormone. Here's how they compare:
| Factor | CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin | Sermorelin |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | Dual-action: GHRH + ghrelin mimetic + somatostatin suppression | Single GHRH analog only |
| GH Response | Stronger, more sustained pulse | Moderate, shorter duration |
| Typical Results Timeline | 4–8 weeks for pronounced effects | 6–12 weeks for noticeable effects |
| Frequency | Once daily (evening) | Once or twice daily |
| Best For | Patients seeking faster, more robust results; active training phases | Patients preferring a gentler entry point; older patients |
| Cost Considerations | Higher due to dual peptide | Lower cost per course |
Candidacy
This combination may not be appropriate for individuals who:
Your clinician will review your full health history, labs (including baseline IGF-1), and medical status during consultation.
Book a telehealth consultation with a Naya Wellness clinician. We'll review your goals, baseline labs, and health history to determine whether CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin is right for you.
No office visit required. Available via telehealth.
