C-J-C twelve-ninety-five
A long-acting growth hormone releaser that provides sustained GH stimulation over days rather than minutes.
Also known as: CJC-1295 DAC, Modified GRF 1-29
Last reviewed: April 2026
CJC-1295 is a modified version of your natural GHRH (the signal that tells your pituitary to release growth hormone). The modification makes it last days instead of minutes. This provides a sustained elevation of growth hormone — supporting muscle recovery, fat loss, sleep quality, and tissue repair.
Injection before bed to work with natural GH pulses

In hands or feet, related to GH effects.
• Active cancer
• Pituitary tumors
• Pregnancy
• Glucocorticoids — may blunt growth hormone release
• Insulin — GH can affect blood sugar
Pregnancy: Not studied in pregnancy. Avoid.
Longer-lasting than sermorelin. Often combined with ipamorelin for dual-pathway GH stimulation.
Sermorelin
A peptide that tells your pituitary gland to make more growth hormone naturally — supports sleep, recovery, and body composition.
Ipamorelin
A selective growth hormone releaser that works through the 'hunger hormone' pathway — clean GH stimulation with fewer side effects.
CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin
The most popular growth hormone peptide combination — hits two pathways simultaneously for amplified GH release.
We don't currently offer this peptide — but we have protocols for similar goals.
