Hexarelin is a synthetic hexaptide which has GH-releasing properties. Hexarelin, administered subcutaneously produces a dose-dependent GH response from the Pituitary.

The advantages of having HGH secreted in larger amounts in the body would be similar to what happens when injectable growth hormone is administered. Effects from GH include increased bone mineral density, increased mitosis and meiosis which leads to more muscle mass, triglyceride hydrolysis which causes prominent fat loss, connective tissue strengthening, and improved skin elasticity.

GH secretion also leads to the liver secreting more IGF-1 (Insulin-Like Growth Factor One), which by itself has a host of effects similar to GH. Users of IGF-1 typically experience increased strength and muscle mass, as well as a very pronounced fat loss.

Therefore, by injecting Hexarelin, the user will experience all of the effects of both Growth Hormone as well as IGF-1. However, since Hexarelin actually stimulates the body to produce more GH, it may be likely that the eventual shutdown of the body's natural GH production may be avoided, as is seen with injectable GH. For this reason, many athletes use Hexarelin alone, but others have used it after a Growth Hormone or Insulin-Like Growth Factor one cycle, to " jumpstart" their own natural GH and IGF-1 production.

Common dosage regimen of Peptides:

Cycle: 16 months. The dosage is prescribed individually and injected 1-6 times a day starting with 25-50mcg and gradually increasing it with the step of 25-50mcg to achieve minimal side effects. Then, there should be return to the starting dose. The injections are usually made subcutaneously in an abdominal area 30 minutes before or in 1-1.5 after meal. The time between injections should be 3-4 hours (in order the body has the time to produce GH for further release).

Hexarelin is a peptide structurally similar to GHRP-6, which stimulates secretion of endogenous GH. Hexarelin has the majority of synthetic GH effects, but these effects are less evident with Hexarelin than with GH. The main effects of Hexarelin include increase of strength, growth of new muscle fibers, improving of vessels state, reduction of fat mass. The main difference of Hexarelin from GHRP-6 is that Hexarelin does not promote appetite, because it does not increase the level of ghrelin in the body.

This drug proved to be a great healer of wounds and can be administered as a multipurpose anabolic and with the purpose to stimulate endogenous GH secretion inhibited with the use of synthetic GH.

Medicinally, Hexarelin can be used to treat GH deficiency induced diseases.
