GHRP-2
Research PeptideAlso known as: Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide 2, Pralmorelin
What is GHRP-2?
GHRP-2 is a synthetic growth hormone secretagogue that stimulates GH release through ghrelin receptor activation.
How It Works
GHRP-2 binds to ghrelin receptors in the pituitary and hypothalamus, triggering growth hormone release and increasing appetite.
What Research Shows
Key Findings:
- Potent GH release stimulation
- May increase appetite and ghrelin levels
- Shows synergy when combined with GHRH analogs
Limited Human Research
Most research on GHRP-2 has been conducted in animal models. Human clinical trials are limited or absent. Results may not translate directly to humans.
Dosing Protocol
These are general guidelines based on research literature and community protocols. Individual dosing should be determined by a qualified healthcare provider.
Safety & Risks
Reported Side Effects:
Contraindications:
- Active cancer
- Pregnancy
- Pituitary disorders

Sourcing & Quality
Quality varies significantly between peptide sources. When sourcing GHRP-2, consider:
- Third-party testing (HPLC, Mass Spectrometry)
- Certificate of Analysis (CoA) availability
- Purity levels (>98% recommended)
- Beware of LPS (endotoxin) contamination
