AOD-9604 + CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin dosage chart

12 mg Blend

The AOD-9604 + CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin peptide blend is dosed at 200 mcg–400 mcg daily via subcutaneous injection in educational protocols. A 12 mg blend reconstituted with bacteriostatic water yields about 4 mg/mL. This information is for research and educational use only.

Vial contents
6 mg AOD-9604 + 3 mg CJC-1295 + 3 mg Ipamorelin (12 mg total).
Reconstitute
Add 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water → 4 mg/mL total (2 mg/mL AOD, 1 mg/mL CJC, 1 mg/mL Ip).
Typical daily range
0.1–0.2 mL once daily (200–400 mcg AOD / 100–200 mcg CJC / 100–200 mcg Ip).
Easy measuring
At 4 mg/mL total, 1 unit = 0.01 mL = 40 mcg total (20 mcg AOD + 10 mcg CJC + 10 mcg Ip).
Storage
Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); avoid freeze–thaw cycles.
Injection frequency
Once daily — 5 days on, 2 days off (dose Mon–Fri, rest Sat–Sun).
Dosing schedule
5 days on / 2 days off: dose Monday through Friday, then take Saturday and Sunday off. That is 5 dosing days per week.

Reconstitution steps

  1. 1Draw 3.0 mL bacteriostatic water with a sterile syringe.
  2. 2Inject slowly down the vial wall; avoid foaming.
  3. 3Gently swirl/roll until dissolved (do not shake).
  4. 4Label and refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F), protected from light.

Dosing Cycle & Timing

This protocol runs on a 5 days on / 2 days off cycle.

  • Cycle: 5 days on, 2 days off — dose Monday through Friday and rest on the weekend.
  • 5 dosing days per week; the 2 off days help limit receptor desensitisation and give injection sites time to recover.
  • Keep the dose time consistent on dosing days.
  • If a weekday dose is missed, take it the same day if possible — do not dose on an off day to catch up.
  • Weekly totals in the supplies and shopping lists are calculated on 5 dosing days, not 7.

Protocol Overview

Concise summary of the once‑daily regimen.

  • Goal: Support body composition improvements through combined lipolytic and GH-stimulating mechanisms.
  • Schedule: Daily subcutaneous injections for 8–12 weeks (extend to 16 weeks if desired).
  • Dose Range: 200–400 mcg AOD / 100–200 mcg CJC / 100–200 mcg Ip daily with gradual titration.
  • Reconstitution: 3.0 mL per 12 mg vial (4 mg/mL total concentration).
  • Storage: Lyophilized frozen; reconstituted refrigerated; avoid repeated freeze–thaw.

Dosing Protocol

Suggested daily titration approach.

  • Start: 0.10 mL daily (200 mcg AOD / 100 mcg CJC / 100 mcg Ip); increase by ~0.05 mL weekly as tolerated.
  • Target: 0.20 mL daily (400 mcg AOD / 200 mcg CJC / 200 mcg Ip) by Week 3.
  • Frequency: Once per day (subcutaneous).
  • Cycle Length: 8–12 weeks; optional extension to 16 weeks.
  • Timing: Morning or before bed on an empty stomach; rotate injection sites.

Storage Instructions

Proper storage preserves peptide quality.

  • Lyophilized: Store at −20 °C (−4 °F) in dry, dark conditions; minimize moisture exposure.
  • Reconstituted: Refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); use within 28 days per CDC/USP guidelines.
  • Allow vials to reach room temperature before opening to reduce condensation uptake.

Important Notes

Practical considerations for consistency and safety.

  • Use new sterile insulin syringes for each injection; dispose in a sharps container.
  • Rotate injection sites (abdomen, thighs, upper arms) to reduce local irritation.
  • Inject slowly; wait a few seconds before withdrawing the needle.
  • Document daily dose and site rotation to maintain consistency.
  • Best administered on an empty stomach (fasting) for optimal GH release.

How This Works

This blend combines three complementary peptides with distinct mechanisms:

Together, these peptides work synergistically to enhance endogenous GH pulsatility and promote favorable changes in body composition similar to exogenous GH therapy.

  • AOD-9604 is a modified C-terminal fragment of human growth hormone (amino acids 177–191) that retains the lipolytic and anti-lipogenic properties of GH without stimulating IGF-1 or affecting glucose metabolism.
  • CJC-1295 is a long-acting GHRH analog that produces sustained elevations in growth hormone and IGF-1 levels, supporting anabolic processes and fat metabolism.
  • Ipamorelin is a selective ghrelin mimetic that stimulates pulsatile GH secretion without significantly increasing ACTH or cortisol, offering a cleaner GH release profile.

Potential Benefits & Side Effects

Observations from preclinical and clinical literature.

Potential Benefits

  • Supports reduction in fat mass and enhancement of lipolysis.
  • May promote lean mass gains through sustained GH and IGF-1 elevation.
  • Selective GH release without significant cortisol or prolactin increases.
  • AOD-9604 shows a placebo-like safety profile in human studies.

Lifestyle Factors

Complementary strategies for best outcomes.

  • Pair with a balanced, protein-forward diet tailored to energy needs.
  • Combine resistance training and aerobic activity to reinforce metabolic adaptations.
  • Prioritize quality sleep (7–9 hours) to maximize endogenous GH release.
  • Manage stress to optimize hormonal balance and recovery.
  • Stay hydrated and maintain consistent meal timing.

Injection Technique

General subcutaneous guidance from clinical best-practice resources.

  • Clean the vial stopper and skin with alcohol; allow to dry.
  • Pinch a skinfold; insert the needle at 45–90° into subcutaneous tissue.
  • Do not aspirate for subcutaneous injections; inject slowly and steadily.
  • Rotate sites systematically (abdomen, thighs, upper arms) to avoid lipohypertrophy.
  • Dispose of used syringes in an approved sharps container; follow local disposal regulations.

Storage: Lyophilized: freeze at −20 °C (−4 °F); after reconstitution, refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); avoid freeze–thaw cycles..

How many insulin syringe units equal a AOD-9604 + CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin dose?

Units depend on the water volume you used. Divide your target dose by the vial concentration to get millilitres, then multiply by 100 — 1 unit on a U-100 insulin syringe is 0.01 mL. The Spartan Peptides reconstitution calculator does this conversion for you.

Is AOD-9604 + CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin approved for human use?

No. AOD-9604 + CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin is sold and referenced strictly as a research chemical. Nothing on this page is medical advice and the material is not for human consumption.

Educational and research information only. Not medical advice, not for human consumption. Values are reference figures — always verify your own math with the reconstitution calculator.

On any insulin syringe, 1 unit = 0.01 mL, so unit counts above hold across brands.
