BPC-157 Dosage Protocols
| Route | Dose | Frequency | Best For |
|---|---|---|---|
| Subcutaneous (systemic) | 250–500 mcg | 1–2× daily | General healing |
| Subcutaneous (local) | 250–500 mcg | 1–2× daily | Near injury site |
| Oral | 250–500 mcg | 1–2× daily | GI applications |
| Intramuscular | 250–500 mcg | Once daily | Muscle injuries |
For localized injuries, injecting as close to the injury site as possible maximizes local concentration while still providing systemic effects through absorption.
Reconstitution
BPC-157 is supplied as lyophilized powder in 2mg or 5mg vials:
- 5mg vial + 2mL BAC water = 2.5mg/mL — each 0.1mL (10 units) delivers 250 mcg
- 2mg vial + 1mL BAC water = 2mg/mL — each 0.125mL delivers 250 mcg
Use the peptide calculator for precise volumes. See the reconstitution guide for preparation.
Cycle Length & Timing
Research protocols typically run 4–6 weeks. BPC-157 does not have strict timing requirements relative to meals (it is stable in gastric acid). Some researchers split the dose into twice-daily administrations for more consistent tissue levels.
No loading dose or taper is used. For oral administration targeting GI issues, taking on an empty stomach may improve direct mucosal contact. For complete storage guidelines, see the peptide storage guide.
