Established CJC-1295 stacks
CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin
Goal: Synergistic, prolactin-sparing GH pulse
Combining a GHRH analog with a GHRP produces a larger GH pulse than either alone. Ipamorelin is selective and does not elevate cortisol or prolactin.
How to think about stacking
- Mechanism diversity beats redundancy. Pairing compounds that hit different pathways usually outperforms stacking two compounds with similar mechanisms.
- Track one variable at a time. Starting two peptides simultaneously makes it impossible to attribute effects. Research protocols typically introduce stacks sequentially.
- Side-effect interactions. Some peptides compound each other's side effects (e.g., GLP-1 agonists with other GI-active compounds). Review side-effect profiles before stacking.
