CJC-1295 without DAC Dosing Calculator

CJC-1295 No DAC (Mod GRF 1-29): Short-acting GHRH analog.

Pre-filled with the most-reported community reconstitution protocol for CJC-1295 without DAC. See how 1 mL and 2 mL of bacteriostatic water change concentration and syringe-draw volume, then adjust the calculator below for your own vial.

Quick answer · Community-reported standard

A 5 mg vial of CJC-1295 without DAC reconstituted with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water yields a concentration of 2.50 mg/mL. At that concentration, a 100 mcg dose of CJC-1295 without DAC equals 4 units on a U-100 insulin syringe (0.040 mL). CJC-1295 without DAC is typically administered once daily via subcutaneous.

CJC-1295 without DAC reconstitution: 1 mL vs 2 mL bac water

Bacteriostatic water volume is flexible. Less water means higher concentration and smaller injection volumes; more water means lower concentration and easier dose precision. Both options below are valid for a 5 mg vial.

CJC-1295 without DAC reconstitution & storage

Reconstitute lyophilized peptide with bacteriostatic water. For a 2 mg vial, add 1-2 mL bacteriostatic water for a concentration of 1-2 mg/mL. Gently swirl to dissolve; do not shake.

Store lyophilized peptide at -20C. Reconstituted solution should be stored at 2-8C and used within 14-21 days. Protect from light. Do not freeze reconstituted solution.

CJC-1295 without DAC dosing FAQ

How much bacteriostatic water should I add to a 5 mg vial of CJC-1295 without DAC?

The community standard is 1 mL of bacteriostatic water for a 5 mg CJC-1295 without DAC vial. That gives a concentration of 2.50 mg/mL, so a 100 mcg dose is 4 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. Adding 1 mL instead doubles the concentration to 5.00 mg/mL and halves the draw to 2 units. Less water = smaller injection volume but harder to measure precisely.

How many syringe units is a 100 mcg dose of CJC-1295 without DAC?

On a standard U-100 insulin syringe, a 100 mcg dose of CJC-1295 without DAC is 4 units when the 5 mg vial is reconstituted with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water (2.50 mg/mL). If you use 1 mL of bac water instead, draw 2 units (5.00 mg/mL).

What is the standard CJC-1295 without DAC dose?

Community-reported protocols for CJC-1295 without DAC typically use 100 mcg once daily via Subcutaneous. 100 mcg is a common starting dose. The classic community protocol; 100 mcg of each peptide combined per injection, on empty stomach, typically AM fasted, post-workout, and pre-bed

How long does a vial of CJC-1295 without DAC last at 100 mcg once daily?

A 5 mg vial of CJC-1295 without DAC contains roughly 50 doses at 100 mcg per injection. At once daily dosing, that is approximately 50 days (about 7 weeks) of supply per vial. Reconstituted CJC-1295 without DAC should generally be used within 28 days when refrigerated.

Where do you inject CJC-1295 without DAC?

CJC-1295 without DAC is typically injected subcutaneous. Common sites reported in the literature and by users include: Subcutaneous (abdomen), Subcutaneous (thigh), Subcutaneous (upper arm). Rotate sites with each injection to reduce localized irritation.

Can I use sterile water instead of bacteriostatic water for CJC-1295 without DAC?

Bacteriostatic water (containing 0.9% benzyl alcohol as a preservative) is strongly preferred for multi-dose vials like CJC-1295 without DAC because it inhibits microbial growth and lets a single vial be used over multiple weeks. Sterile water has no preservative and should generally be reserved for single-use preparations only.
