Clinical Information on Growth Hormone

 

GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 are Growth Hormone Releasing Peptides that are available by prescription.

GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 are synthetic six amino acid chain peptides which directly bind to specific receptors on the hypothalamus to

produce growth hormone (GH). Additionally, they stimulate the hypothalamus to release naturally produced Growth Hormone

Releasing Hormone. Most commonly used to stimulate the production and release of endogenous GH, GHRP-2 /

GHRP-6 may be an appropriate therapy for weight management.

GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 stimulate the hypothalamus to release naturally produced GHRH. Most importantly, GHRP-2

and GHRP-6 work on separate receptors in the hypothalamus and pituitary resulting dual site action.

While studies have shown a lack of response with GHRP-6 in GH-deficient patients with mutated GH-releasing hormone receptors,

GHRP-2 has proven itself effective in these patients due to its high potency.
