Mechanism overlap · reasoning, not evidence
- GHRP-6
- Peptide — Growth Hormone Secretagogue (Ghrelin Receptor Agonist)
- Sermorelin
- Peptide — GHRH Analog, Growth Hormone Secretagogue
Reasoning, not evidence: what each is described to do says nothing about what they do together.
What the studies found
Men on testosterone therapy (Sigalos et al., 2017)
- What was given — A retrospective review of 105 hypogonadal men on testosterone therapy who were prescribed GHRP-6, GHRP-2 and sermorelin together, 100 mcg of each injected under the skin three times a day (started 2012–2015). 14 men met the strict compliance criteria and were analysed.
- What it found — IGF-1 rose from 159.5 to 239.0 ng/mL (p < .0001) over a mean 134 days of treatment. Men also taking an aromatase inhibitor or tamoxifen had smaller rises. In the full text, testosterone and free testosterone rose significantly from 90 days on; LH, FSH and estradiol did not change.
- Limits — No control group, and the three peptides were always given together, so no single peptide's effect can be separated. Anthropometric data were missing for most men.
No study has given GHRP-6 and sermorelin together without GHRP-2.
Legal Status
GHRP-6: Gray market. FDA said no — on the do-not-compound list.
Sermorelin: Compounded Rx. Once an approved drug (Geref, 1990–2008); compounded legally today.
