- MK 677 (Ibutamoren)
- Ghrelin receptor agonist. Stimulates endogenous GH release without HPTA suppression
- 12.5–25mg/day (higher than standard 10–20mg due to receptor desensitization)
- Oral capsule
- Must verify 3rd-party purity ≥98%
- Gold standard GH secretagogue for 50+. Oral bioavailability and preserved feedback loops make it superior to injectable alternatives for this age group
- Thymalin
- Thymic peptide bioregulator. Upregulates naive T-cell production and thymic epithelial function
- 10mg/day for 10 days per cycle (vs 5–7 days in younger protocols)
- Subcutaneous injection
- Requires bioregulator-grade sourcing with verified peptide sequencing
- Essential immune component. Older thymic tissue requires longer stimulation windows to respond
- Cerebrolysin
- Neuropeptide mixture. Supports BDNF signaling and synaptic plasticity
- 5ml 3×/week (vs 10ml 5×/week in acute stroke protocols)
- Intramuscular injection
- Pharmaceutical-grade vials only. No compounded versions
- Most evidence-backed neuroprotective option, but IM administration is a barrier for some users
- Dihexa
- Hexapeptide. Potent HGF/c-Met pathway activator for synaptogenesis
- 5mg 2×/week subcutaneous (lower frequency than cognitive repair protocols)
- Research-grade synthesis with HPLC verification
- Emerging alternative to Cerebrolysin. Fewer injections required, but less long-term clinical data
- CJC-1295/Ipamorelin
- GHRH analogue + ghrelin mimetic. Synergistic GH pulse amplification
- 200mcg/100mcg 3–4×/week (optional add-on weeks 13–16)
- Must be non-DAC CJC-1295 to avoid desensitization
- Effective GH pulse amplifier, but not necessary if MK 677 alone produces adequate IGF-1 response
