#For patients
Written for adults considering a peptide as part of their health management.
Semax and alcohol cravings: the evidence
No human study shows that Semax reduces alcohol cravings, and one quoted animal result cannot answer a personal safety question.
Tirzepatide and heart events: BMJ study
A 2026 BMJ cohort linked tirzepatide to fewer cardiovascular events than sitagliptin, but the result remains observational.
Tirzepatide for sleep apnea
Tirzepatide reduced sleep-apnea severity in adults with obesity, but the evidence does not make it a universal substitute for CPAP.
Do not pool tirzepatide vial leftovers
CDC guidance says not to pool single-dose vial leftovers. Tirzepatide presentation and dose changes should be checked with a pharmacist.
A forum peptide dose is not a minimum
No human trial has established a minimum BPC-157 or TB-500 dose for repair. The familiar forum numbers come from animal work and estimates.
Half doses do not fix peptide stacks
Using half amounts of Selank, retatrutide, or a recovery blend cannot make an unstudied peptide combination evidence based.
Peptides for injury recovery: a primer
BPC-157 and TB-500 show tissue-repair effects in animal models, but no human randomised controlled trial exists for either peptide in orthopaedic injury.
Peptides for muscle gain: a primer
Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 are the main peptides linked to muscle gain. Here is what the research shows, what it does not, and what to know before pursuing either.
Peptides for sexual function: a primer
One peptide, bremelanotide (PT-141), holds FDA approval for HSDD. Everything else is preclinical or anecdotal.
GH-axis peptides: a primer for patients
Tesamorelin, CJC-1295, and ipamorelin are the main GH-axis peptides. One has FDA approval for a specific use. The others have early-phase human data only.
Peptides for longevity: a primer
Tesamorelin and ipamorelin are discussed for longevity. Here is what the evidence and safety picture actually look like.
Peptides for muscle gain: evidence
Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 raise growth hormone signals, but no controlled human trial shows either peptide builds muscle or strength.
