02 / Mechanism
How it is thought to work
Ghrelin-receptor agonist; raises GH plus some cortisol and prolactin
Mechanisms seen in cells or animals do not always happen the same way in people.
03 / Potential benefits
What people use it for
Strong GH release
Limited human evidence
Small or low-quality human data. Most of what is claimed comes from animals, cells or anecdotes.
Listed uses are what people use it for, not proven outcomes.
04 / Known risks
Side effects and risks
Hunger, water retention, cortisol/prolactin rise
Risk level 5 of 10
Moderate risk score: real side effects are known, and long-term safety is not settled.
Unknown long-term effects count as a risk, not as a clean record.
05 / Regulatory
Regulatory status
- Status
- Not approved
- Details
- Not approved anywhere. FDA flagged it as a compounding safety risk (2023)
- Sport (WADA)

Status reflects information up to mid-2026 and changes over time. Check current sources.
06 / Evidence quality

07 / Notes and sources
Notes and sources
- In 2023 the FDA placed it on its list of bulk substances with significant safety concerns for compounding.
- Growth-factor peptides carry a theoretical risk of feeding existing cancers.
- Products sold online as research peptides are unregulated. Tests of such products often find wrong amounts, impurities or a different compound.
- Anyone using compounds like this regularly should have medical supervision and bloodwork (for example IGF-1, glucose and HbA1c, hormones, lipids).
