Understand this compound
A potent ghrelin-mimetic growth-hormone secretagogue studied in GH research.
Good to know: Human data are limited to small, early-phase studies; it desensitizes the GH response with repeated dosing and has never been approved for any indication.
A hexapeptide ghrelin receptor (GHS-R1a) agonist that also binds CD36 in cardiac tissue, giving it GH-releasing activity plus a distinct, largely GH-independent cardioprotective signaling pathway.
Mechanism of action from published research — how the molecule behaves, not a claim about any product or any human-use effect.
Studied for GH stimulation and, separately, for cardioprotection (reduced cardiomyocyte apoptosis, improved cardiac output) in cardiovascular research.
In clinical trials (early-phase, discontinued); reached Phase 2 for GH-deficiency diagnosis and cardiac indications but was never marketed.
Where the science stands — an approved drug is not the same as the research-grade material a vendor sells, which is unregulated regardless.
Research context only — VialGrade never gives dosing, medical, or human-use guidance.
Research-use-only — not FDA-approved
Sold “for research use only,” this compound is not FDA-approved for human use and has not been evaluated for safety, purity, or sterility in people. It is generally not a scheduled controlled substance, so buying it as a research chemical is typically not itself a drug crime — but marketing or using it as a drug is not lawful, and it is not a dietary supplement.

Compare by real cost
Vials come in different sizes, so the sticker price lies. This ranks every listing by what a milligram actually costs — with independent test purity where we have it.

Real $/active mg divides the price-per-mg by the measured purity — the honest cost of the actual peptide, so a 90%-pure vial isn’t compared as if it were 99%. Too cheap? flags a listing far below the market rate — often underdosing or a fake, not a deal. The crown marks the cheapest non-outlier; best value marks the lowest real cost per active mg.
