    @hunt_ak the burning / dull ache lasts hours. Before I started injecting slowly, I had a couple of days-long reactions.

    The sting isn’t intolerable.

    @glpbacon Good to know. You all but remedied it by injecting room-temp and very slowly? How slowly? A minute to push the plunger down?

      15-20 seconds works for me. You just have to figure out what works. I can confirm that if you are getting burn from GHK, injecting slow does help.

      Yeah, well, I’m just here for the research, man. - The Dude

      If I haven’t liked your post, no offense. I have exceeded my daily allowance.

        @hunt_ak good questions! I use a pen, and I inject 2 units at a time, and wait about 5-10 seconds, and then do the next amount.

        Total volume: 15 units, so it takes about 60-90 seconds to fully inject. I'm injecting into belly fat. I found that upper glutes are just as sensitive.

        15 units == 4 mgs KLOW, so 2.5 mg of GHK-cu per injection, 500 mcg of the others.

        Because I'm using a pen, I don't wait for room temp, I do it cold since I don't want the entire vial coming up to room temp.

        Pre-pen / insulin needle, I would draw the amount and let that come up to room temp, which helped.

        I'm going to use an insulin needle tonight to draw out my dose from the cart, and I'll try both room temp AND slow injection and report back.

          Thanks for the info @researchcat and @glpbacon! I'll have my contact try both of these things to see if it helps at all.

              @mmp not as much as I’d hoped. Room temp, slow injection, and I mean really slow, helped the most. I inject 2-4 “clicks”with the pen at a time, wait 5 seconds, repeat till done.

              Dilution didn’t change anything for me.

                The research on GHK-cu is crazy on how to find what works for no PIP.

                What works for me.

                I preload 30-40iu Bac water or No sting water in Luer Lock syringes, i do 7 for the week and leave them
                Im the cabinet, its only bac water no GHK. I put on some 34g 6 or 8g needles.

                Then i have my GHK reconstituted in my pen with a 1/2” 29g pen needle, and i remove the needle and put inside the syringe my GHK dose with the pen.

                Then i let it sit for a bit which the bac water is at room temp anyway, and shoot it in the upper glute.

                When im starting the cycle i will have a little dull feeling but very little, by 2 weeks in i can start upping the dose

                  50 mg GHK-Cu mixed in 9 mL Bac water, then divided into 3 pen cartridges = no ISR

                    I do a 50mg GHK - 10mg KPV blend. Recon with 3mL Bac to a pen vial. So 20mg/mL, 16.66 GHK and 3.33 KPV. I dose 15iu, 3mg total, 3x per week. Inject into glute and alternate sides. No sting. I think the KPV nullifies any adverse reaction from the GHK-Cu.

                      The sting is not intolerable. But it was annoying. I don’t know which thing helped me but this morning I waited about 10 seconds to pull the needle out and immediately covered it with a bandaid. This is the first day I have not experienced any sting whatsoever.

                          50mg GHK-Cu in 9mL Hospira is completely painless for me. I just split it into 3 cartridges each month.

                              For research use only. Not medical advice.

                              Overview

                              GLOW is a multi-peptide repair blend containing GHK-Cu, TB-500, and BPC-157 in one formulation.
                              Each component has been studied for tissue regeneration, inflammation control, angiogenesis, and wound-repair pathways.
                              By combining all three, GLOW aims to deliver a broad-spectrum repair effect often used in recovery, soft-tissue healing, and cosmetic-focused research models.

                              The blend is typically run as a short, concentrated daily protocol.

                              Daily Dosing Protocol (Subcutaneous)

                              Standard Daily Dose

                              2,330 mcg (2.33 mg) once daily

                              Administered at a consistent time each day.

                              This delivers an approximate per-dose composition of:

                              GHK-Cu: ~1.7 mg

                              TB-500: ~0.33 mg

                              BPC-157: ~0.33 mg

                              Cycle Length

                              4-week continuous cycle (most common)

                              Run daily for 28 days

                              Optional 2–4 week break between cycles depending on research goals

                              Many researchers treat GLOW as a short, intensive repair cycle rather than a long-term peptide regimen.

                              Timing

                              Once daily, with flexible timing

                              Many use evening dosing to coincide with recovery periods

                              Morning dosing is also common in cosmetic or skin-focused research

                              Titration

                              A titration phase is not typically used with GLOW because the daily dose remains mild for each individual component.
                              However, sensitive subjects may optionally begin at half-dose for 2–3 days before transitioning to the full 2.33 mg.

                              Common Research Notes

                              GLOW provides systemic repair effects from TB-500 + BPC-157 plus cosmetic/tissue-quality benefits from GHK-Cu.

                              Many subjects report faster response with GLOW than with any single peptide alone due to complementary pathways.

                              Injection-site warmth or minor flushing may occur initially.

                              Because GHK-Cu is stimulatory to collagen and skin-matrix gene expression, some researchers prefer morning or mid-day dosing for skin-focused protocols.

                              The 4-week cycle is typically sufficient for acute injuries, post-procedure recovery, or cosmetic remodeling.

                              @Randy buy these separate tb is a different dosing protocol, and ghk i would only mix in syringe for injection otherwise ghk can oxidize the other peps sitting in a vial reconstituded.

                                I just started GHK-Cu and was so worried about the sting everyone talks about, I decided to recon my 100 mg with a 20 ml bac water. With zero issues

                                  @MikeMiranda oh I wish that was me. I went from researching at 3ml's bac, and a lump at a time, saw 5 ml's was where alot of people find relief but not me either. At 6ml's it's not too bad, no big deal. But now I'm wondering maybe I just do 8ml's or 9 like above and not have any.
                                  I do feel lucky to be able to research up to 5mg mots-c at a time. Some people can't research it at all.
