What Is the Dose of BPC-157 and How Does It Work?
Standard Dose
Your standard dose of BPC-157 is 20 units, drawn into a 31-gauge insulin syringe and injected subcutaneously near your target area.
Dosing Schedule
BPC-157 is dosed five days a week — Monday through Friday — with the weekend as a rest period. This weekday cadence is intentional: it maintains a consistent repair signal while allowing the body time to integrate the effects.

The Cycle Protocol
To prevent the body's receptors from becoming desensitized (down-regulation), BPC-157 is cycled rather than taken continuously.
- On protocol: Up to 12 weeks
- Break: 2 weeks off
- Check-in: Every 3 months with your provider to review your treatment plan and progress
Your physician will confirm the appropriate protocol length based on your indication and response.
