Hexarelin is a potent synthetic GHRP that stimulates GH release more strongly than most other secretagogues. It also has cardioprotective properties independent of GH.
Acts on GHS-R receptors in the pituitary and hypothalamus to release GH. Also acts on CD36 receptors in the heart for cardioprotection.
Elevated cortisol and prolactin at higher doses. Water retention and increased appetite.
Inject 200 mcg SubQ 2–3 times daily. Desensitisation occurs with prolonged use — cycle 8 weeks on, 4 weeks off.
