- BPC-157
- Upregulates VEGF and growth hormone receptors in tendons; accelerates fibroblast migration to injury sites
- Rotator cuff tendinopathy, golfer's elbow (medial epicondylitis), wrist flexor strain
- 200–400 mcg per injection, twice daily subcutaneous near injury site
- ~4 hours; requires twice-daily dosing for sustained tissue levels
- The gold standard for tendon repair in repetitive strain injuries. Short half-life demands consistent administration but delivers measurable healing acceleration
- TB-500 (Thymosin Beta-4)
- Promotes actin upregulation and angiogenesis; reduces fibrotic scar tissue in muscle belly tears
- Oblique strains, latissimus dorsi tears, lumbar paraspinal muscle damage from rotation
- 2–5 mg per injection, once or twice weekly
- 7–10 days; allows infrequent dosing due to long tissue residence time
- Best for muscle injuries with high scar tissue risk. Prevents range-of-motion loss from fibrosis after acute tears
- GHK-Cu (Copper Peptide)
- Modulates matrix metalloproteinases; downregulates TNF-alpha and IL-6 inflammatory cytokines
- Chronic joint inflammation, forearm tendon overuse, post-round stiffness reduction
- 1–3 mg daily subcutaneous or topical application
- ~1–2 hours systemically; topical effects are localized and dose-dependent
- The maintenance peptide. Excels at managing chronic low-grade inflammation rather than acute injury repair
