The dosage suggestion that "everyone" is throwing around comes from the halted clinical trial. If anyone knows anything about clinical trials, it that the first thing they try to establish is the correct effective safe dosage. Thats why they use different control groups and groups with different dosages (some extremely high). The clinical trial most are referring to, was done in AIDS patients. The IGF-1 serums levels in AIDS patents (and HGH for that matter) are lower then a normal healthy person. This suggests that the pituitary and HGH / IGF-1 pathways of a AIDS patient are compromised. So thus the clinical data is skewed. Thus most people's deductions from the resulting IGF-1 serum levels and the dosages used are not accurate. I am using 1000mcg(about 9mcg/kg) a week and my IGF-1 serum levels are 372ng/ml. According to the clinical trial data I would have to be using 250mcg/kg a week to obtain that result. All clinical trials that I found on CJC-1295 were done on AIDS patients. So none of this data is directly applicable to normal healthy individuals. Recheck your pricing with that dose.
And this:
What I've found works after some experimenting is using a 3/2 week. Since my personal blood work showed that after injecting on 1st, 7th and 14th day elevated my IGF-1 serum levels to 312ng/ml (normal for me is 122-189ng/ml) on the 37th day. Because of the half life of the peptide and its inherent compounding affect, using the peptide for 3 weeks on and 2 weeks off would allow serum level to remain constant and reduce the amount of CJC-1295 you need for cycling. I have tried 1 on, 1 off and 2 on, 2 off and 3 on, 3 off, and using my IGF-1 serum levels as a guideline found that the 3/2 protocol is the most effective increasing IGF-1 serum levels over time. Using the CJC every week with no breaks, my levels never got above 392ng/ml and averaged around 328ng/ml. Using the 3/2 protocol my levels never fell 322ng/ml, while using 25% less CJC-1295. For actual dosing, 10mcg/2.2lbs (1kg) of body weight is what works (for me anyway). Hope this helps.
