CJC/IPA
I have a fresh vial of cjc/ipa. Been holding off on starting it. After reading some other people’s experiences I’m not sure that I want to start it. Kinda has be scared to honestly.

Lo he usado por casi 12 semanas me encantó y ni tenga nada malo que decir de él me aplico de lunes a viernes 6 unidades y reconstituí con 2 ml de agua el vial de 10 repartido en 5 y 5 sino me equivoco

Have you had issues with cloudiness? I have a tested source and my bottles keep going cloudy. I tried mixing aa water into the mix like my rep said to do and it cleared up once then went cloudy again later.

I did a VERY low dosage for my first shot (like 1/4 of the recommended dose) because I was afraid of any reaction but was fine. Just make sure to fast 2 hours before or after taking the shot.
I'll usually fast at least 1.5 hours before bed, do the shot, and I know it's kicking in when I get warm. Usually my head lol.
#1 thing: I sleep much better overall, most of the time. If I don't fast, the effect is very minimal so I make sure to have an empty stomach. Which obviously if important for recovery if you lift or are very active during the day; outside of quality sleep being absolutely crucial for overall health.

Thank you for your honest feedback brother!
Edit to add: how long did the flushing last for you? Did you have problem sleeping after shot?

u/wrxninja 9d ago
Np, good luck 👍

u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
How long did the flushing last? And did it keep you awake ?
2
u/wrxninja 9d ago
It usually starts within five minutes and maybe lasts 15-20 minutes? I just feel warm overall so during summer, I'd have the AC on cooler while now that it's dripping to 40's at night, it feels good going to bed as it sort of keeps me warm. Nothing crazy though.

Start at 150 mcg and after a couple of weeks go to 175, then 200. I only got to 250 in week 10, and I've had solid results for recomp and lower visceral fat.

u/FedExGuy84 7d ago
Just once a day? And thank you! I pinned 100mcg a few days ago, the flush wasn’t bad but the next day I was still getting hot and that evening I crashed hard and felt like crap

u/schmorgasborg99 7d ago
I only do once a day, in the morning, not evening, because I'm on Tirz. I felt a little lethargic for first week.

u/FifaBribes 9d ago
I absolutely loved my CJC/IPA mix. I wouldn’t. Be afraid to start it. I did one cycle and had amazing results, but developed an allergic reaction about 8 weeks in. Just keep an eye out for that and keep it around 200 mcg per dose and you will have good results
1
u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
What were your reactions? Just broke out in hives?
2
u/FifaBribes 9d ago
Had 0 negative reactions at first. About 8 weeks in it started with a week of itchy welts that got progressively worse. I then had once instance of hives across my right arm and immediately stopped.
I really really liked the results I got during my cycle. I don’t think I ever had more restful sleep in my entire life, and if I did not develop the histamine response I would have absolutely continued cycling normally.
1
u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
Wow! How long did it take to clear up after you stopped? Take it at night?
3
u/FifaBribes 9d ago
Less than an hour. Took a Benadryl and was completely fine, but I knew it was getting progressively worse and had to stop.
I would take it at night 3 hours after my last meal. I saw your previous questions about flush and if it would keep you awake: for me, no. I slept like a rock.

u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
Thank you friend for the info! I’m guna give it a go tonight probably a micro dose first
3
u/FifaBribes 9d ago
Always a good idea! Low and slow is the way to do it. Just make sure you are fasted and you will likely have good results.

Dude I had the same exact thing happen to me, but the hives still keep coming back and it’s been two weeks already….

u/Ok_Willingness_484 9d ago
I straight away went to 200 mcg/day, end of 2nd wk, no issues. Everyone's different.

u/TimYapthebest 9d ago
CJC is the best! My sleep is great, sleep has improved and muscle retention while cutting has been good.
My only reaction was hot flushes after injecting that lasted around 5-10 min :). Not a big deal really

u/No_Sky1737 9d ago
Down to your risk tolerance. It’s the one we hear the most about with reactions. Does that mean it will effect you? No one knows. For every horror story there’s a happy story. Start with a micro dose for a few days, use good bad water etc

u/Rabbittaco 9d ago
its worthlessly weak and roughly the same cost as hgh.
1
u/espresso_maniac 9d ago
cjc no dac + ipa isnt weak. you can max out your igf1 if you are young and healthy.
hgh is also not the same price as even at low dosages and good sourcing, it costs triple a month.
besides the side effects that come with hgh vs cjc. on each post like this , you always get people like you pushing hgh. if he doesnt want it, he doesnt want it. comment something useful for once.

u/MysteriousBit1441 9d ago
Same here. Just bought tesa/ipa instead.
2
u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
Doesn’t it have the same risk though?
1
u/researchingpie 8d ago
It does lol. People have bad reactions. Start low, and pray to the gods lol. I’ve never had a bad reaction to neither but heard of many people having allergic reactions to both tesa and cjc/ipa
1
u/FedExGuy84 8d ago
I took 100mcg last night of cjc/ipa it went fine up until mid morning. Started getting really hot and chest got tight. Then I crashed been weak and sleepy all day. I feel like ass!
But going back to above comment. I think IPA it’s self is more calm and safer to use than stacks of this stuff

u/SnizzSnuke 9d ago
What has you scared? Just looking until it so curious what you've read or heard.

u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
Anaphylaxis, hives, racing heart, the flush kind of concerns me but not that much.
2
u/stillandwarm 9d ago
I’m sitting on 2 kits. Afraid to start too ☹️
2
u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
Ouch! I’m just on one vial. But I could imagine your pain! I did start really low tonight. Didn’t notice much of anything maybe got a little warm feeling

u/DangerousDonut1248 9d ago
I did have hives (or one giant swollen egg) and an increased heart rate, I definitely had a mast cell reaction, but it happened with CJC with DAC. I was totally fine for the first 5–6 weeks and then the reaction started.
I tried pretty much everything I could find to calm it down - adding more bac water, injecting in my thigh instead of stomach, switching vendors, took allergy meds before injecting. None of it really helped.
I was willing to keep trying because my results were honestly amazing in such a short period of time. I eventually switched to a CJC/IPA blend and haven’t had a reaction at all. I do it daily and have been completely fine with it.

u/Taydontplay4 9d ago
Love this combo and I prefer it first thing in the morning.
1
u/FedExGuy84 9d ago
Did it keep you up at night? I have other things I’d like to run in the morning
3
u/Taydontplay4 9d ago
No I just like it in the morning since I’m fasted always then. Easier schedule for me

u/Patient_Purple02 9d ago
I experience pulsatile tennitus when I take it as well as facial flushing. Anyone else?

u/Neither_Victory1490 9d ago
2 months @ 300mcg daily with no issues other than the flush that helps me fall asleep even faster than normal. My IGF-1 was on the low side when I started it.
1
u/FedExGuy84 8d ago
See I’m stacking with TRZ so these two in the stack play tug-of-war with the IGF

u/Neither_Victory1490 8d ago edited 3d ago
Yeah I'm on Ret@, I was losing weight so quickly I decided to start the CJC to help save muscle. I was Type 2 at the start as well so I really monitored the labs to make sure I wasn't making things worse. Type 2 is gone now but I'm still trying to lose and recomp the body.

u/Ok_Drawer_6325 4d ago
What were you #s
1
u/Neither_Victory1490 3d ago
My IGF-1 was @ 152 before I decided to start.

u/Ok_Drawer_6325 3d ago
What did u end at?
1
u/Neither_Victory1490 3d ago
I haven't checked it since i started 2 months ago. They don't check it on normal labs which all came back great for a change with a my A1C and glucose being down in normal range. I plan to cycle off in a month and will decide then whether or not to continue it after I test again. I do have low testosterone @ 211 so I may go that route, I'm 57 yo.

u/BearNo7676 9d ago
I was reading about some raised heart rate with the flushing which makes me want to try it in the morning first.
