About GHRP-6 5mg
GHRP-6 was the first of the growth hormone releasing peptides to be widely characterised, and its discovery is what led to the identification of the GHS receptor and ultimately of ghrelin itself. Its marked orexigenic effect, stronger than GHRP-2 and far stronger than ipamorelin, makes it the standard tool compound for studying ghrelin receptor-mediated appetite signalling rather than growth hormone release alone. Like GHRP-2 it shows cortisol and prolactin cross-activation, so selectivity-sensitive experiments generally use ipamorelin instead. This 5mg vial is the smaller presentation, matching the fill of the GHRP-2 and ipamorelin vials it is usually run beside.
Storage and reconstitution
Store lyophilized peptide at -20°C in a dry, dark environment. Reconstitute in bacteriostatic water. Once reconstituted, store at 2-8°C and use within 30 days. Avoid repeated freeze-thaw cycles. Lyophilized powder is stable at room temperature for shipping and short-term storage.
Shipping within Canada
Orders placed before 2:00 PM Pacific on a business day are packed and dispatched the same day. Orders placed after that cut-off, or on a weekend or statutory holiday, are dispatched on the next business day. Parcels leave British Columbia, Canada and travel entirely within the country, so nothing on this order crosses a border, clears customs or is held by CBSA. Orders over CA$200 ship free; see the shipping page for transit times by province.
