BPC-157 vs Sermorelin & GHRP-2 & GHRP-6
A detailed comparison to help you understand the differences and choose the right peptide for your research goals.
BPC-157
Body Protection Compound-157 is a synthetic peptide derived from a protein found in human gastric juice. It has shown remarkable healing properties in research studies.
Full details →Sermorelin & GHRP-2 & GHRP-6
A powerful tri-blend combining Sermorelin (a GHRH analog) with two growth hormone releasing peptides. This combination produces significantly greater GH release than any single peptide, with studies showing up to 54-fold increases in pulsatile GH secretion.

| Aspect | BPC-157 | Sermorelin & GHRP-2 & GHRP-6 |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | BPC-157 works through multiple pathways including upregulation of growth factor expression, nitric oxide system modulation, and promotion of angiogenesis. It enhances tendon-to-bone healing and supports the formation of new blood vessels. | Sermorelin stimulates the pituitary via GHRH receptors, while GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 act as ghrelin mimetics on different receptor subtypes. The combination creates synergistic GH release through multiple complementary pathways. GHRP-6 also strongly stimulates appetite. |
| Typical Dosage | Typical research dosages range from 250-500mcg administered 1-2 times daily. Both subcutaneous and oral administration have been studied. | Typical protocols: Sermorelin 100-300mcg, GHRP-2 100-300mcg, GHRP-6 100-300mcg. Often administered 2-3 times daily, 30 minutes before meals or at bedtime. |
| Administration | Can be administered subcutaneously near the injury site or systemically. Stable in gastric juice, making oral administration viable. | Subcutaneous injection. Best administered fasted or before sleep to maximize natural GH cycle. The three peptides can be mixed together or administered separately. |
| Side Effects | Generally well-tolerated in research. Some reports of mild nausea or dizziness at higher doses. | Increased hunger (especially from GHRP-6), water retention, facial flushing, nausea, tingling, potential increases in cortisol and prolactin levels. |
