      Frequently Asked Questions

      CJC-1295 with DAC or without DAC — which is better?

      No-DAC (Mod GRF 1-29) produces pulsatile GH release mimicking natural patterns — preferred for body composition. DAC produces sustained GH elevation ('GH bleed') — preferred for convenience (1-2 injections/week). Most experts prefer no-DAC for physiological GH patterns.

      Can I mix CJC-1295 and ipamorelin in the same syringe?

      Yes — this is standard practice. Draw both peptides into the same insulin syringe for a single injection. They are chemically compatible.

      How does CJC-1295 compare to sermorelin?

      Both are GHRH analogues. CJC-1295 (no-DAC) has a longer half-life (~30 min vs. ~10 min for sermorelin) and is considered more potent. CJC-1295 with DAC has a much longer half-life (6-8 days). Sermorelin has more clinical history.
