Ipamorelin
One of the most selective growth hormone secretagogues, studied for clean GH release without cortisol or prolactin elevation.
What Is Ipamorelin?
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide that acts as a selective agonist of the growth hormone secretagogue receptor (GHS-R). What distinguishes ipamorelin from other GH secretagogues like GHRP-6 or GHRP-2 is its selectivity—published research demonstrates that ipamorelin stimulates GH release with minimal impact on cortisol, prolactin, or ACTH levels.
History
Ipamorelin was first described by researchers at Novo Nordisk in 1998. The compound emerged from a systematic effort to develop growth hormone secretagogues with improved selectivity profiles. Unlike earlier GH secretagogues (GHRP-6, GHRP-2, hexarelin), ipamorelin was shown to stimulate GH release without significantly activating the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis or raising appetite-stimulating hormones. This selectivity profile made it a preferred research tool for isolating GH-specific effects.
Certificate of Analysis (COA)
Every batch of our peptides is independently tested by third-party laboratories to verify purity, identity, and potency. We maintain 98%+ purity standards across our entire product catalog.
Reconstitution & Storage
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (BAC water). Using a sterile syringe, slowly inject 1-2mL of BAC water into the vial, directing the stream against the glass wall. Do not inject directly onto the lyophilized powder. Gently swirl until fully dissolved. Do not shake.
Store unreconstituted vials at room temperature away from direct sunlight. After reconstitution, store at 2-8°C (standard refrigerator). Use within 30 days of reconstitution. Do not freeze.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does ipamorelin do?
Selective GH secretagogue stimulating GH release via ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) with minimal cortisol, prolactin, or ACTH impact. This selectivity distinguishes it from GHRP-6/GHRP-2.
What is ipamorelin for men?
Studied for GH secretion, lean body composition, bone mineral content, and nitrogen balance. Sold for research purposes only regardless of researcher demographics.
Is ipamorelin safe?
Raun et al. (1998) highlights selectivity: GH release without significant cortisol, prolactin, or ACTH effects. Sold for research purposes only.
What is ipamorelin used for?
Selective GH secretion, pulsatile GH release, bone density, lean body composition, GHS-R selectivity studies. Available in 10mg liquid vial for $69.
Does ipamorelin increase appetite?
Unlike GHRP-6, ipamorelin shows minimal appetite-related hormonal impact in published research. Preferred for isolating GH-specific effects.
Does the product come with instructions?
Each order includes product documentation with storage requirements and handling guidelines. For research guidance, visit our blog at /blog.
What's the actual amount in each vial?
Each vial contains the labeled amount of Ipamorelin in liquid form. The exact quantity is verified via third-party testing and documented on the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis.
Are additional supplies needed?
No. All Protocol Aminos products ship in liquid form, ready for immediate research use. No additional preparation, mixing, or supplies required.
How long does a vial last?
Shelf life depends on storage conditions. Store refrigerated at 2–8°C, away from direct light, and keep sealed when not in use. Specific stability data is available on request.
