CJC-1295 with DAC 5 mg
Long-Acting Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone Analogue — A Plain-Language Guide
CJC-1295 with DAC is a modified GHRH analogue. The DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) extension dramatically extends its half-life — from hours to about 7–10 days. This means fewer injections with sustained GH stimulation.
What it does
- Stimulates pituitary to release growth hormone
- Increases IGF-1 levels (muscle and tissue repair)
- Supports muscle growth and recovery
- Promotes fat loss over time
- Improves sleep quality
- Supports anti-aging and cellular repair
CJC with DAC vs CJC with Ipamorelin
| Feature | CJC + Ipamorelin | CJC + DAC |
|---|---|---|
| Half-life | ~30 min | ~7–10 days |
| Dosing | Daily (nightly) | 2x per week |
| GH pattern | Pulsatile (natural) | Sustained elevation |
| Best for | Sleep + recovery | Body comp + longevity |
Why people use it
- Muscle growth and recovery
- Fat loss (especially body recomposition)
- Anti-aging protocols
- Sleep improvement
- Fewer injections than daily peptides
What people notice
- Improved body composition over weeks
- Better recovery from training
- Improved sleep quality
- Gradual lean muscle improvement
Cycle length
| Phase | Duration |
|---|---|
| On-Cycle | 8–16 weeks |
| Off-Cycle | 4–8 weeks |
| Tapering | Not required |
Why cycle
Cycling prevents receptor desensitization and allows IGF-1 levels to return to baseline.
