Peptide Therapy
Peptides are short chains of amino acids, think a protein but smaller. They occur naturally in the body have various roles in the body. But with age and environmental factors, these peptides are often deficient or missing in our body. Science has been able to create synthetic versions of peptides to mimic or enhance biological processes in the body.
-Contraindications: pregnant or may become pregnant, breast feeding
*Schedule a Peptide Therapy consult with Michelle Gray, NP-C to discuss peptide therapy. You are only charged if you decide to proceed. Basic labs (CBC, CMP, TSH) are required prior to starting therapy. This will be discussed at consult.
-
Sermorelin is a peptide that promotes our body’s own natural production of growth hormone (GH) which is a process that declines in your 30s and continues to decline as we age. GH aids in libido, restful sleep, refined skin tone, stronger hair growth, fat loss, muscle gain and improved endurance. Think overall wellness!
-
Injection 25 units (500 mcg) subcutaneously at bedtime 5 nights/week.
OR
Inject 10 units (200 mcg) subcutaneously in the morning and at bedtime 5 days/week (best results).
You must be fasting for 2 hours prior and 30 minutes after injection.
It may cause strange dreams and a little bit of hunger.
-
$200 for approximately 2 months
Sermorelin Injections
Pentadeca Arginate (mod BPC-157)
Injection or Oral
-
Pentadeca arginate is a modified version of BPC 157. This peptide promotes healing of muscles, tendons, ligaments by stimulating fibroblasts, angiogenesis, reducing inflammation and enhancing collagen synthesis. It also promotes healing in the GI tract including stomach ulcers, leaky gut and inflammation. Works best when stacked with TB500.
-
Injection 25 units (500 mcg) subcutaneously daily.
Or
Take 500 mcg by mouth daily.
Take for 1 month, then off for 1 month.
-
Injection:
$250 for one month
Oral:
$175 for one month
PT 141/Oxytocin Nasal Spray
-
PT 141 or Bremelanotide is a synthetic peptide that stimulates the melanocortin receptors in the brain which enhances libido and arousal in men and women. Oxytocin is a synthetic version of our “love hormone.” This promotes intimacy, connection and emotional wellbeing
-
Instill one spray in each nostril 1-4 hours before sexual activity. UP to twice per week.
Monitor BP while taking this peptide.
Avoid other nasal sprays 2 hours before or after.
Contraindicated in uncontrolled hypertension.
-
$220 for one bottle.
-
CB4211 is a modified version of MOTS-C. This peptide improves mitochondria function, reduces inflammation, prevents oxidative stress damage to cells. It also provides metabolic enhancement by increasing energy expenditure and metabolism, increasing glucose uptake and improving insulin sensitivity. By reducing inflammation and improving metabolic pathways, it is neuro and cardio protective.
-
Start with 1 ml subcutaneously once/week. You may increase to 3 times/week.
Take the peptide for 1 month, then off for 1 month.
-
One day/week $155 for 1 month
Three days/week $450 for 1 month
CB4211 (mod MOTS-C)
TB500 Injection
-
TB500 is a synthetic fraction of the protein thymosin beta 4. This peptide promotes healing, especially in soft tissue, by bringing cells to the site of injury and aiding in regeneration. Works even better when stacked with Pentadeca Arginate.
-
Take 50 units (3.75 mg) once/week.
OR
Take 25 units (1.87 mg) twice/week.
Take the peptide for 1 month, then off for 1 month.
-
$250 for 1 month
Selank Nasal Spray
-
Selank is a synthetic peptide that modulates GABA receptors to reduce stress, anxiety, depression. It also aids in memory and learning processes. Think of it as anti-anxiety medication without the withdrawal or dependence
-

Take one week off between treatments.
Avoid other nasal sprays 2 hours before or after.
-
$200 for one bottle.
Semax Nasal Spray
-
Semax is a neuroprotective peptide that improves memory and learning. It also improves mood. This peptide is beneficial for ADHD or memory deficits.
-
Instill one spray in each nostril daily for 5-10 days.
Take one week off between treatments.
Avoid other nasal sprays 2 hours before or after.
-
