What is Hexarelin?
Hexarelin is a synthetic hexapeptide and one of the most potent GH secretagogues in the GHRP family. It acts on both the ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) and a separate cardiac receptor, making it an interesting research subject for both growth hormone studies and cardiovascular research.
Research Dosing Parameters
- Typical dose range: 100–200 mcg per injection
- Common vial size: 2 mg
- Reconstitution: 1–2 mL bacteriostatic water
- Injection frequency: 2–3x daily in research protocols
How to Reconstitute Hexarelin
- Inject bacteriostatic water slowly along the vial wall
- Swirl gently until fully dissolved
- Do not shake — this may degrade the peptide
- Store at 2–8°C after reconstitution
- Use within 30 days
FAQ
How potent is Hexarelin compared to GHRP-2 and GHRP-6? Hexarelin is generally considered the most potent GHRP for GH release. However, it may cause more pronounced desensitization with continuous use compared to ipamorelin.
Does Hexarelin affect cortisol? Yes, like GHRP-2 and GHRP-6, Hexarelin may increase cortisol and prolactin levels. Research protocols often account for this when designing study parameters.
How do I calculate Hexarelin units for 100mcg? Enter 2mg vial + your BAC water volume + 100mcg dose into the calculator above to get exact syringe units.
