Short answer
The community standard: 250-500 mcg per dose, once or twice daily — 500 mcg/day is the most common total. Injected near the injury for tendon/muscle work, or orally for gut targets, in 4-8 week cycles. The honest caveat up front: no human clinical trial has established BPC-157 dosing — every number here is community practice extrapolated from animal data, which is why provider supervision and tested sourcing matter more than the exact figure.
Dosage chart by goal
| Goal | Typical dose | Route | Frequency | Cycle |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tendon / ligament | 250-500 mcg | SubQ near injury | 1-2×/day | 6-8 wk |
| Muscle strain | 250-500 mcg | SubQ near muscle | 1-2×/day | 4-6 wk |
| Gut / digestive | 500 mcg | Oral capsule | 1-2×/day | 4-8 wk |
| General support | 250 mcg | SubQ anywhere | 1×/day | 4 wk |
Vial math (5 mg format)
Standard format: a 5 mg lyophilized vial. Reconstitute with 2 mL bacteriostatic water → concentration 250 mcg per 0.1 mL. On an insulin syringe, 10 units = 250 mcg, 20 units = 500 mcg. A vial lasts 10-20 doses. Refrigerate after mixing; discard after ~4 weeks.
Four rules experienced users follow
- Inject near the injury. Local administration outperforms remote sites in the animal data — the repair signaling concentrates where you place it.
- Oral for gut only. For GI targets, capsules act directly on the stomach lining — for musculoskeletal goals, injected is the established route.
- Cycle, don't run forever. 4-8 weeks on, then off. Continuous use of a compound without human data is the classic way to turn a reasonable experiment into an unreasonable one.
- Reassess at week 4. If nothing changed, the peptide probably isn't the bottleneck — check the diagnosis before raising the dose.
