What Each One Is
Ipamorelin is a synthetic pentapeptide studied as a selective growth-hormone secretagogue — in research models it acts at the ghrelin/growth-hormone-secretagogue receptor. It is noted in literature for its selectivity.
CJC-1295 (No DAC), also known as Modified GRF 1-29, is a synthetic analogue of growth-hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH). In research models it acts at the GHRH receptor. The "No DAC" form lacks the drug-affinity-complex modification.
Both are supplied purely as reference research compounds. North Peptides UK makes no claims about effects in humans, and nothing here is guidance for human or animal use.
The Core Difference
The two act on different receptors in the pathway that regulates growth-hormone secretion: Ipamorelin at the GH-secretagogue (ghrelin) receptor, CJC-1295 at the GHRH receptor. Because they engage complementary points in the same research pathway, they are frequently studied together as a pair in models of GH-secretion regulation.
Handling and Reconstitution
Both reconstitute the same way, in bacteriostatic water. As 5mg vials, a 1–2ml solvent volume is a common choice for a clean working concentration. Add the solvent down the side of the vial, swirl gently, and refrigerate the prepared solution. Our reconstitution guide covers the concentration arithmetic.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Ipamorelin and CJC-1295?
They act at different receptors in the growth-hormone-secretion pathway. Ipamorelin is a GH secretagogue acting at the ghrelin receptor; CJC-1295 (No DAC) is a GHRH analogue acting at the GHRH receptor. They are often studied together.
How are Ipamorelin and CJC-1295 supplied?
Both as 5mg lyophilised vials, listed with supplier-stated 99%+ purity and stored frozen until dispatch, with supplier documentation available on request where held.
Can Ipamorelin or CJC-1295 be used in humans?
No. Both are supplied strictly for laboratory and scientific research and are not for human or animal consumption.
