TB-500 + BPC-157 5+5 mg
A dual-peptide research stack pairing TB-500 and BPC-157 in separate vials to investigate complementary soft-tissue and wound healing pathways.
Mechanism
TB-500 binds and sequesters G-actin to promote endothelial cell migration and systemic tissue restructuring, while BPC-157 promotes focal angiogenesis, collagen synthesis, and local cytoprotection.
Dosing
Standard laboratory protocols document a starting TB-500 dose of 2.5 mg administered twice weekly, paired with a starting BPC-157 dose of 250 mcg to 500 mcg daily.
Reconstitution
Each 5 mg vial is typically reconstituted with 2.0 mL of bacteriostatic water to achieve a final working concentration of 2.5 mg/mL per peptide.
Storage
Store unopened lyophilized vials at -20 °C in dry conditions, and keep reconstituted solutions refrigerated between 2 °C and 8 °C protected from light without freezing for up to 28 days.

Dosing Chart
| Phase / Day(s) | Dose & Frequency | Volume (U-100 units / mL) |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1–4 (TB-500) | 2.5 mg (2× per week) | ~100 units (1.0 mL) |
| Weeks 1–2 (BPC-157) | 500 mcg/day — 250 mcg (2× daily) | ~10 units (0.10 mL) |
| Weeks 3–4 (BPC-157) | 500 mcg/day — 500 mcg (1× daily) | ~20 units (0.20 mL) |
Reconstitution Steps
- 1
Draw 2.0 mL of bacteriostatic water into a sterile syringe for each individual vial.
- 2
Sterilize the rubber stoppers of both vials with alcohol swabs and allow them to air dry.
- 3
Slowly introduce the bacteriostatic water down the inside glass wall of each vial to prevent violent turbulence and foaming.
- 4
Swirl or roll each vial gently between the hands until the lyophilized powder is completely dissolved, avoiding vigorous shaking.
- 5
Keep TB-500 and BPC-157 in separate labeled containers, record the date and concentration, and refrigerate immediately at 2–8 °C.

Overview
The TB-500 and BPC-157 research stack is a widely documented pairing designed to explore synergistic tissue repair mechanisms in laboratory settings. Rather than a pre-mixed solution, this protocol utilizes two distinct vials—one containing 5 mg of TB-500 and the other containing 5 mg of BPC-157—which must be reconstituted and administered separately. By maintaining distinct solutions, researchers preserve dosing flexibility across varied experimental timelines. TB-500 represents the bioactive fragment of Thymosin Beta-4, known for governing systemic cell migration and actin dynamics, while BPC-157 is a synthetic 15-amino-acid peptide derived from gastric secretions that exhibits potent local cytoprotection and angiogenic properties. When paired in experimental models, they are hypothesized to address distinct aspects of tissue remodeling, from vascular recruitment to cellular matrix repair. Neither peptide in this stack is approved for clinical use or human consumption. All documented regimens are derived from preclinical literature and experimental conventions intended strictly for laboratory exploration and in vitro or animal models of soft-tissue trauma.
