Educational reference only. TNHL calculates and organizes user-entered values; it does not diagnose, prescribe, recommend doses, or replace guidance from a qualified professional.
MechanismCJC-1295 NO DAC (also known as Modified GRF 1–29 or Mod GRF) is a synthetic 29‑amino‑acid peptide analog of growth hormone–releasing hormone (GHRH) with a plasma half‑life of approximately 30 minutes [1] . Unlike the DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) version, this short‑acting analog produces more physiologic GH pulses and requires once‑daily subcutaneous administration [2] [3] .
Dosing100–300 mcg once daily (gradual titration).
ReconstitutionAdd 3.0 mL diluent to a 5 mg vial.
StorageLyophilized: refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F) ; after reconstitution, refrigerate and use within 1–2 weeks ; for longer storage, freeze at ≤−20 °C (≤−4 °F) .

Dosing & Reconstitution Guide

A practical calculator-ready setup based on the imported protocol reference. Use these values as a math starting point, then verify every entry against your own vial, diluent, and professional guidance.

Standard / Gradual Approach (3 mL = ~1.67 mg/mL)

Phase / setup Dose & frequency Volume / units
Weeks 1–2100 mcg (0.1 mg)6 units (0.06 mL)
Weeks 3–4150 mcg (0.15 mg)9 units (0.09 mL)
Weeks 5–6200 mcg (0.2 mg)12 units (0.12 mL)
Weeks 7–8250 mcg (0.25 mg)15 units (0.15 mL)
Weeks 9–10300 mcg (0.3 mg)18 units (0.18 mL)
Weeks 1–4), consider 30‑ or 50‑unit insulin syringes for improved readability.See calculator

100–300 mcg once daily (gradual titration).

Reconstitution Steps

  1. Confirm the vial amount, unit, and diluent amount before entering values in the calculator.
  2. Add diluent slowly down the inner wall of the vial when reconstitution is appropriate for the compound.
  3. Swirl or roll gently until dissolved; avoid shaking unless the product instructions specifically say otherwise.
  4. Label the vial with the date and concentration, then store according to the protocol and product instructions.

Supplies Needed

Keep this as a planning checklist. TNHL does not sell or verify supplies on this page, and no supplier quality claims are made here.

Peptide Vials 8 weeks ≈ 2 vials
  • 12 weeks ≈ 4 vials
  • 16 weeks ≈ 6 vials
Insulin Syringes Per week: 7 syringes (1/day)
  • 8 weeks: 56 syringes
  • 12 weeks: 84 syringes
  • 16 weeks: 112 syringes
Bacteriostatic Water Use ~3.0 mL per vial for reconstitution.
  • 8 weeks (2 vials): 6 mL → 1 × 10 mL bottle
  • 12 weeks (4 vials): 12 mL → 2 × 10 mL bottles
  • 16 weeks (6 vials): 18 mL → 2 × 10 mL bottles
Alcohol Swabs One for the vial stopper + one for the injection site each day.
  • Per week: 14 swabs (2/day)
  • 8 weeks: 112 swabs → recommend 2 × 100‑count boxes
  • 12 weeks: 168 swabs → recommend 2 × 100‑count boxes

Protocol Overview

  • Goal: Stimulate pulsatile GH release and elevate IGF‑1 levels over time [2] [5] .
  • Schedule: Daily subcutaneous injections for 8–12 weeks (extend to 16 weeks if desired).
  • Dose Range: 100–300 mcg daily with gradual titration.
  • Reconstitution: 3.0 mL per 5 mg vial (~1.67 mg/mL) for accurate unit measurements.
  • Storage: Lyophilized refrigerated; reconstituted refrigerated 1–2 weeks; freeze for longer storage.

Dosing Protocol

  • Suggested daily titration approach.
  • Start: 100 mcg daily; increase by ~50 mcg every 2 weeks as tolerated [4] .
  • Target: 200–300 mcg daily by Weeks 5–10.
  • Frequency: Once per day (subcutaneous), typically at bedtime.
  • Cycle Length: 8–12 weeks; optional extension to 16 weeks.
  • Timing: Evening/bedtime administration aligns with nocturnal GH physiology [2] .

Storage Instructions

  • Proper storage preserves peptide quality [6] .
  • Lyophilized: Store at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F) in dry, dark conditions; stable for days to weeks at room temperature but refrigeration extends shelf life.
  • Reconstituted: Refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F); use within 1–2 weeks for maximal potency.
  • Long‑term: Aliquot and freeze at ≤−20 °C (≤−4 °F); avoid repeated freeze–thaw cycles .
  • Gently swirl (do not shake) when reconstituting; check for particulates before use.

This educational protocol presents a practical dilution for clear insulin‑syringe measurements.

The library page pairs that educational context with calculator-ready vial math, so users can understand the protocol structure and then track their own entered values in one place.

06 · Daily habits

Lifestyle Factors

  • Keep meals, training, sleep, and recovery notes in the journal so trends are easier to review.
  • Track body metrics only if they are relevant to the user's goal and approved data sources.
  • Use consistent timing and logging habits so adherence data is meaningful.

07 · What to expect

Potential Benefits & Side Effects

  • CJC-1295 NO DAC observations should be recorded conservatively: expected research endpoints, tolerability notes, injection-site reactions when applicable, sleep, appetite, energy, mood, and any adverse or unusual response.
  • This section is not a claim of therapeutic benefit.

08 · Technique

Injection Technique

Pre-injection preparation
  • Wash hands with soap and water.
  • Wipe the vial stopper and chosen site with alcohol, then let both dry.
  • Confirm the vial concentration, calculator result, and intended draw amount before loading the syringe.
Injection procedure
  • Use the route and needle technique directed by a qualified professional or product instructions.
  • For subcutaneous injections, rotate sites and inject slowly to limit leakage and irritation.
  • Do not reuse needles or syringes.
Post-injection care
  • Dispose of sharps in a puncture-resistant container.
  • Return stored items promptly to the correct temperature.
  • Log dose, site, date, time, inventory change, and any observation.
