Ipamorelin Dosing Protocol: 10 mg Vial — Extended Supply Dosing Guide
Multi-week ipamorelin supply from the 10 mg vial — ideal for patients on established 300 µg once-to-three-daily protocols.
Quickstart highlights
Ipamorelin's selectivity for GHSR-1a over ACTH and prolactin axes enables high-frequency dosing without the adrenal side effects of other GHRPs.
- Concentration: 2 mg/mL (10 mg vial + 5 mL bacteriostatic water).
- At 2 mg/mL: 200 µg = 10 units, 300 µg = 15 units per injection.
- One 10 mg vial provides 33 doses at 300 µg or 11 days at 300 µg 3x daily.
- Best for 2–3x daily protocols; reduces reconstitution frequency vs. 5 mg vials.
- Refrigerate; use within 28 days.
Dosing table
For educational reference only. Your prescribing provider may adjust doses based on your clinical profile and response.
| Week | Dose (µg) | Units | Frequency | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1-4 | 200 | 10 | Once daily (before bed) | 200 µg nightly — 10 units; 10 mg vial provides 50 nightly doses |
| 5-12 | 300 | 15 | 1–3x daily | 300 µg per injection; 33 doses at this level per vial |
| 13+ | 300 | 15 | 3x daily | Three 300 µg injections daily — morning, pre-workout, bedtime; 11 days per vial at 3x daily |
Reconstitution steps
- Draw 5 mL bacteriostatic water (two 2.5 mL draws from a 3 mL syringe); inject slowly down the vial wall.
- Swirl gently until powder fully dissolves; do not shake.
- Final concentration: 2 mg/mL. Label with date; refrigerate at 2–8 °C. Use within 28 days.

Protocol overview & cycle notes
Provide an extended multi-week supply of ipamorelin from the 10 mg vial for patients on high-frequency (2–3x daily) dosing protocols, optimizing cost and minimizing reconstitution events.
Cycle length: 12 weeks on.
Off-cycle: 4 weeks off; measure IGF-1 before restarting.
Storage & handling
Injection & tracking tips
- For the 3x-daily protocol, inject 30–60 minutes pre-workout (mid-day or afternoon), once more in the morning, and once before bed.
- Always inject in fasted state or 2+ hours post-meal.
- The 10 mg vial is most efficient for patients at 300 µg 3x daily or higher — reduces reconstitution frequency versus the 5 mg vial.
Tracking
Logging helps you and your provider spot patterns and adjust dose or timing.
- Measure IGF-1 at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks.
- Track lean mass and body fat via body composition scale or DEXA every 8 weeks.
- Log resting morning cortisol if using high-frequency dosing (3x daily) to confirm ipamorelin selectivity.
