GHK-CU

GHK-Cu (glycyl-L-histidyl-L-lysine:copper complex) is a naturally occurring copper peptide with documented roles in wound healing, tissue remodeling, and skin regeneration^[1][2]. Research demonstrates activity in gene regulation related to collagen synthesis, antioxidant defense, and anti-inflammatory pathways^[3][4]. This educational protocol presents practical subcutaneous administration approaches based on clinical practice patterns.

• Reconstitute: Add 3.0 mL sterile water → 16.67 mg/mL concentration.
• Typical range: 1.0–2.0 mg per injection (most common protocols use 5 days/week or 3×/week).
• Easy measuring: At 16.67 mg/mL, 1 unit = 0.01 mL ≈ 167 mcg on a U‑100 insulin syringe.
• Storage: Lyophilized: store at −20 °C (−4 °F) or below; reconstituted: refrigerate at 2–8 °C (35.6–46.4 °F) and use within 30 days.
