Tesamorelin
Elite ResearchTesamorelin is a synthetic peptide, specifically a growth hormone-releasing hormone analog, designed to stimulate the pituitary gland to release growth hormone
Tesamorelin binds to GHRH receptors in the pituitary gland, stimulating the pulsatile release of growth hormone. This increases IGF-1 production in the liver. Unlike direct GH injections, Tesamorelin works within the body’s natural feedback loops, potentially reducing side effects associated with exogenous GH
It’s primarily used in medical settings for specific conditions but has also gained attention in wellness and anti-aging communities for its potential benefits
It decreases visceral adipose tissue (VAT) by increasing growth hormone levels, which promotes fat metabolism and increases lean muscle mass
Also potential neuroprotective effects and improved cognitive function in aging adults, possibly due to increased GH and IGF-1levels
It is also used for its potential to enhance skin elasticity, energy levels, and recovery
Research application
Copied from the handbook as research notes. and not instructions.
- 5mg vial Tesamorelin
- Reconstitution volume: 2mL of BAC water
- 1mg = 40 units
- 2mg = 80 units
- 1-2mg Monday - Friday in the morning (fasted)
Unless other wise noted intermuscular (IM) peptides are commonly administered via subcutaneous (SQ) injection with 30-31 gauge syringes
