    sermorelin discontinued?

    I am seeing some things on the internet that sermorelin has been discontinued. I called a local pharmacy and they said the same thing. Anybody know for sure? thanks.

    Are you disappointed? Appreciate any sources/citations. Sermorelin is a sketchy peptide chemical as many times a compounding pharmacy will source the product via the underground.... My assumption is you're hearing and reading common sourcing troubles when dealing peptide hormones (synthesis, purification and legal red tape being the normal hurdles).

    Not disappointed. I was thinking of trying it as I'm on trt and thought maybe it would be a good addition.

    Right on, stay patient and see if you can hop on a GHRH/GHRP peptide blend if/when it comes available in your area. Sermorelin use by itself is typically disappointing & will deliver little-no results.

    Thanks Vette,

    I have to show my ignorance here, but I am not well versed in Peptides. I'm not sure what the difference is between a peptide and HGH etc. Can you please explain the GHRN/GHRP? Also, what are you meaning by if it becomes available in your area? Is that something I can check with my doctor on? The TRT is working pretty good. 1ml/week. I am looking for anything that can boost things a little more. I am working hard on my diet, take the supplements I feel can help me, creatine, beta-alanine, vitamin, protein drink with a little glutamine added. HGH is out of my price range at this time. Thank you for your time, sir.

    I just had my doc overnight me three 9 ml bottles of sermorelin last week. Love the stuff. 300 mcg before bed 3 on/1 off takes my igf 1 levels to ~ 300

    Happy to help if I can. Basically, a peptide hormone (such as Sermorelin, which is a GHRH or 'growth hormone releasing hormone') is relatively simple and cheap product to manufacture. Doctors stateside can get away with prescribing the protein drug (Sermorelin in our case) as it has the FDA's blessing.

    It takes a special trt doc to have their hands in the peptide cross-sell arena. If you receive testosterone therapy from a by the books primary care or specialist, odds are they may not have the incentive to supply a peptide such as Sermorelin (nor do they know a pharmacy to partner/fulfill). Other doctors meanwhile have reason to supply cheap peptide hormones as the $10 vial of Serm comes with a 1000% or greater profit margin for the clinic. Notice the poster above me mentions his peptide arrived via mail order (hint hint)

    The most aggressive risk-taking medical docs go as far as to scribe GHRH in a blend with GHRP (growth hormone releasing peptide - which compliments the GHRH, producing a similar experience to human growth hormone...exception being that you often must dose the short acting compounds more times that you'd like). Real human growth is a complex polypeptide synthesis which our medical system doesn't allow for (as it's too costly and risky for docs to assoc with)...yet...(gotta keep hope alive...).

    Sermorelin is known as poor man's HGH. You can check if your doc has any insights, but if he was an advocate or had skin in the game, you'd likely already be aware. More often than not, folks are buying the GHRH &/or GHRP products from underground vendors. Fortunately, there is plenty of money involved in the sale of peptides so there is rarely fraud or scammers.

    Everyone wants HGH as it is user friendly and effective. To be frank, by the time you invest in your 'legal' Sermorelin (/peptide blend protocol), all the added syringes and wasted efforts administering and timing the peptide hormones...users are better off saving until money is no object and investing in the real deal (imo, even the slightest bit of rHGH provides an edge). However, sourcing legitimate HGH opens up a whole other can of worms....

    To conclude, Sermorelin is a good placebo breadwinner for MD's. Will it pass the test of time? Nope, it's a fad that'll pass.

    What is placebo about taking my igf 1 levels from140-277 in 4 days?

    How do you feel? Testing igf1 levels is controversial. Pardon my post as I did not mean to discredit. Thank you for sharing the results!

    Not sure if I feel any different. I can tell you I'm more vascular and look fuller when on it

    Very good

    Years ago when testing igf1 level increases, the budget or interests at the time was aimed at comparing results from HGH and GHRH/GHRP. Findings were indeed that numbers were strikingly similar...also the experience had unique similarities - such as extremities falling asleep/numb (those nice feelings of growth during exercise and rest). Never tested what a single peptide hormone would yield personally (whether it be a GHRH or GHRP alone). If I were a betting man, I would venture to guess if your dosage of Serm was split in two (and even cut in half) with a spice of GHRP-2 or Ipamorelin...your blood test results would be higher, vascular effects enhanced and it's possible you could save some $$. Just planting a seed
