Ipamorelin 10mg - a selective ghrelin receptor agonist studied for growth hormone release without cortisol or prolactin confounding.
Research Use Only:This compound is intended exclusively for in vitro laboratory research applications. Not for human or veterinary consumption.
Ipamorelin research overview
Ipamorelin is a pentapeptide growth hormone secretagogue that acts at the ghrelin receptor, GHS-R1a. It belongs to the same functional family as the earlier GHRPs but is characterised in the literature by its selectivity, and that selectivity is the reason it is stocked as a research tool rather than as a historical curiosity.
Earlier secretagogues in this class stimulate growth hormone release but also raise cortisol, prolactin and ACTH. Any observed downstream effect then has several possible explanations, and a model has to control for all of them. Ipamorelin is reported to produce comparatively little activity at those other axes, which lets a study attribute an observed change to growth hormone signaling with fewer competing variables. Published work has used it in exactly that role: GH pulse characterisation, gastric motility research, bone density models and studies of sleep-associated GH release.
Because it acts at the ghrelin receptor rather than the GHRH receptor, ipamorelin is mechanistically distinct from CJC-1295 DAC and tesamorelin, both of which Savage Labs stocks. Combined designs testing whether the two pathways are additive are common in the literature. Store refrigerated at 2-8 degrees Celsius. For in vitro laboratory research only. Not for human or veterinary use.

Questions about this listing
- What form does Ipamorelin come in?
Lyophilized Powder The size options listed on this page — 10mg — are what is available, and the vial labelling shown in the product images above is the reference for what a vial contains.
- How should Ipamorelin be stored?
Refrigerate at 2-8°C. Storage requirements differ across the catalog — some listings are refrigerated, others held at -20°C, others at room temperature — so read this row rather than assuming from a neighbouring product.
- Does Savage Labs supply a diluent for Ipamorelin?
Bacteriostatic water is stocked separately in 3mL and 10mL vials. Savage Labs does not specify a reconstitution volume, a working concentration, or a basis for calculating either — those are determined by the protocol the material is used in, not by this catalog.
- What does the 99.2% figure on this listing mean?
It is the purity reported for this material. It is a reported value rather than one Savage Labs has independently verified for the lot you receive, and it does not describe net peptide content. How peptide purity is reported and net peptide content cover what the number does and does not tell you.
- What documentation is available for Ipamorelin?
Batch-specific certificates of analysis and test methods on request. Confirm that any report matches the lot you intend to order — reading a peptide certificate of analysis covers which field answers which question. Ask about documentation for this listing, or see the full FAQ for ordering, shipping and returns.
- What else is grouped with Ipamorelin?
It is catalogued under Growth Hormone, where the category page describes what separates the compounds in the group.
Ordering, payment, shipping and returns are answered on the full FAQ.
