How It Works

CJC-1295 DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) has a half-life of 6–8 days due to its albumin-binding DAC moiety, enabling once-weekly dosing with sustained GH elevation.

Potential Benefits

  • Sustained GH elevation with once-weekly dosing.
  • Supports lean body composition and recovery.
  • Convenient dosing schedule.

Side Effects & Risks

  • Water retention more pronounced than No-DAC version.
  • Possible GH bleed (sustained rather than pulsatile release).

Important Notes

  • DAC version produces sustained GH elevation, not pulsatile release.
  • Some researchers prefer No-DAC for more physiological GH pulsatility.

Storage Instructions

  • Lyophilized: −20 °C (−4 °F).
  • Once mixed: 2–8 °C; use within 14–21 days.
