- BPC-157
- VEGF receptor activation; angiogenesis; collagen type I synthesis
- Inflammatory and proliferative (days 1–21)
- 200–300mcg daily
- Peri-injury IM or subQ abdominal
- Best first-line option for grade 1–2 strains; acts fastest in early healing
- TB-500
- Actin upregulation; MMP expression; scar remodeling
- Remodeling phase (weeks 3–8)
- 2.5mg 2×/week × 4 weeks, then 1×/week × 4–8 weeks
- IM near injury or subQ abdominal
- Superior for restoring tensile strength; use after initial inflammation resolves
- Sequential BPC-157 → TB-500
- Combined early angiogenesis + late remodeling
- Full recovery timeline
- BPC-157 weeks 1–3, TB-500 weeks 4–8
- IM localized preferred for both
- Mirrors natural healing cascade; supported by overlapping mechanisms
