How to reconstitute BPC-157: mixing and storage
An experimental repair peptide with mostly animal evidence and a few small human reports.
Also called: BPC 157, BPC157, Body protection compound 157, Bepecin, PL-14736, PCO-02.
Healing and repair peptides · Experimental synthetic pentadecapeptide.
Comes as: Unapproved freeze-dried powder vials, Oral capsules or tablets, Oral gummies in a registry record, Unapproved liquid or nasal blends.
Mixed with: Bacteriostatic water is community-reported. The IV pilot used normal saline; that does not validate home dilution..
Common vial sizes: 5, 10 mg. Common water amounts: 1, 2 mL.
- Vial sizes and water volumes are community reports, not approved instructions.
- 5 mg in 2 mL gives 2.5 mg/mL; 250 mcg is 0.10 mL. Arithmetic assumes the vial content is correct.
- A 99% HPLC result does not establish sterility or the amount per vial.
- Refrigeration does not sterilize a vial. Do not assume any forum shelf-life claim is validated.
Before mixing: No approved storage label. Freeze-dried powder stability depends on formulation, moisture and packaging.
After mixing: Forum users refrigerate mixed vials; a safe BPC-157 storage period after mixing has not been validated.
