CJC-1295 is a GHRH analog, while Ipamorelin is a ghrelin-mimetic GHRP. They belong to different, complementary classes of growth hormone secretagogue, which is exactly why they are so often combined. Both are supplied for research use only.

Complementary, not competing
The two are not two versions of the same thing; they act through different mechanisms. That is why they are so often studied together as a combined blend rather than chosen one over the other.

A note on research use
The peptides supplied by Axis Peptide Labs are reference compounds for laboratory and research use only. They are intended for qualified researchers working in academic, institutional, and analytical settings. They are not drugs, foods, cosmetics, or medical products, and they are not intended for human or veterinary consumption. Documented identity and documented purity are what matter most when sourcing a compound, both of which are published on the Axis certificates of analysis page.
