CJC-1295 is a synthetic analog of growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). It is studied in research as a growth hormone secretagogue and is often studied alongside Ipamorelin. Research use only.
What CJC-1295 is
CJC-1295 is a peptide modeled on GHRH, the natural signal that prompts growth hormone release. It is designed to be longer-acting than natural GHRH, which is part of why it draws research interest. Some versions are described as "with DAC" or "no DAC," referring to a modification that changes its duration.

How it is studied
In the laboratory, CJC-1295 is studied in research, frequently in combination with Ipamorelin, a pairing covered in CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin. As a research peptide, it is a study tool and is not approved or intended for human use.
