For those looking to try BPC-157, this is the current product I use personally and recommend for my patients, as it is the stable form of BPC-157: bit.ly/3kxMmYg
Very interesting. If you did fine with the injectable then it's either a byproduct the BPC is turning into in the gut/liver (which we know very little about) or some other ingredient in the oral form

Yes! You can get the oral BPC-157 that we use shipped to canada. If you're able to work with a naturopathic doctor locally that uses peptides, there is one compounding pharmacy that doctors can get injectable BPC-157 from.

I tried the nasal spray and had a bad headache and diarrhea within 24 hours. Should cut the dose in half and try again? I have a brain and spine injury - CSF leak.
So he keeps mentioning his “Kentucky Compunding pharmacy” but never gives the name. Where can we order legit, FDA approved BPC???? The infiniwell linked place is in TX. Just a bit confused. And what dose do we take for injury repair? Knee MCL and meniscus injury from tennis as well as shoulder. Thank you
There is no such thing as FDA approved BPC-157. Keep scrolling if all you care about is something being FDA approved. The 'great FDA' that has actually forced compounding pharmacies to stop making peptides for BS reasons, meaning that millions of people are losing access to peptides that actually help them.

First, it’s important to know that the FDA is in bed with pharma. Second, since BPC is found in human gastric juice, pharma cannot create it and therefore is labeled as a supplement and not classified as a drug. It works great for me though, but it will be hard to find all the comforting studies to prove it. I have come to realize there are two people in this world. Those who take everything and anything and those who need lots and lots of research to even try something. But you gotta decide for yourself! Good luck!!
In a clip I saw you say that BPC should be injected and isn’t absorbed orally…. But here you say we can take it orally. What is your official recommendation?
Can you please send me this clip? I dont believe I have ever said that BPC-157 is not absorbed orally, and my stance on this is extremely strong and has been for a long time. I may have misspoke or something may be said out of context. Oral is very effective and is absorbed well
It's definitely an underrated tool to use, but most people don't need it if they actually cleaned up their diet, exercised daily, slept more, and removed stressors from their lives
So why doesn’t it work in everyone? Are some conditions not responsive or are people rejecting it in the body? I’d heard the body can recognize it pretty well. Are the people who aren’t responding to that also not going to respond to other peptides like is that a sign of some issues with peptides in general or is it just that one specifically
The same reason that nothing in medicine (pharmaceuticals is our best example here) works 100% of the time - we don't always know! If patients don't have a response to it, it doesn't mean they won't respond to other peptides
I've been reading lots of papers about the rat studies, it seems really promising for human use (especially coupled with the anecdotal evidence). I know clinical trails cost money and recruiting for human trails is hard..but with the possible benefits of BPC 157 seemingly being huge why is there such a lack of human research? It seems super odd to me that something that could be so useful and seemingly so promising has very little human research and very little negative side effects in the research....any thoughts on this?
@@DrewTimmermansND if a big pharma did a study and it was successful wouldn't they be able to bring this to mainstream audiences and make money that way? It's confusing to me the anecdotal success has not pushed for larger effects to research and approve this treatment
BPC-157 can't be patented at this point, so if big pharma paid millions to run a study, they wouldn't have exclusive rights to it, so they wouldn't make their money back
How much can one roughly expect to spend to get the injectable form from your clinic for everything, including visits and medication? I'm guessing around 700?

Curious on this as well. I have issues with all of these things pretty severely, I’m going to start taking this in the near future along with some other things and will see what happens. I also have quite a few unhealed injuries that need healing so working on that as well.

We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress. If they regress, we put them back on it.
Could you please inform on side effects, especially the heavy neurological ones affecting the frontal lobe? Lots of anecdotes out there on this issues and it would be nice to have a professional honest view on it.
I am still not clear on where the frontal lobe side effects are coming from. This has never been documented in the research, and I've never had it any of our patients (>300 patients at this point). We have always used BPC from trusted sources. From talking with people, not a single case that I'm aware of when the peptide came from a compounding pharmacy. I have concerns that its because people buy junk from labs that aren't compounding pharmacies. That's what I know at this point. Still always looking into it.
@@DrewTimmermansND basically anyone can find these anecdotes on peptide communities both on Reddit and Facebook groups, plus several comments on TH-cam videos. These are people who allegedly tried BPC 157 (various sources and regular 250-500mcg per day, i.e. nothing crazy) and even with only 3 initial doses already reported a change in their drive/motivation, mood/personality, lack of emotional connections, loss of sensitivity to stimulants and even to pleasure; anhedonia, and others. There’s even a poll made by an admin in one of these FB groups and statistically these people with pretty negative effects represent 10% of cohort. Pretty serious I’d say
I'm not saying that these are not occurring, I'm just still trying to figure out if it's actually from the compound BPC-157, or a filler or something bunk used in non-pharmaceutical products. We have to figure out more. At this time I have not had a single case with using pharmaceutical grade BPC-157.
@@DrewTimmermansND thanks! Out of curiosity: are you and your team documenting your results (w/ humans) officially to release a formal study/paper in the scientific community any time soon? That would definitely be amazing and very constructive!
Unfortunately not, because that would require that we only use BPC-157 as a solo therapy, which we rarely do. In order to be a 'good' scientific paper is should only have 1 variable and a placebo group. That would require a full clinical trial, which is not something we are set up for.
What do you think about the use of peptides while you have an active infection? Lets say you have a collagen disease caused by an infectious disease, treating it takes years though. Meanwhile more and more damage is caused, do you think starting with peptides sooner rather than later is a good idea even while you might still have an infectious agent in you? I understand that, at least the regenerative, peptides do not have any antimicrobial purposes so obviously this would be for example while you are on antibiotic therapy. Do you happen to know any reason why this might be contraindicated? Thank you!
Would BPC-157 be good for repairing damaged neurotransmitter systems? I took very high dose Betahistine for a short time to try to upregulate my H3 receptor, which turned out to be a bad idea because now I have a constant extreme lack of wakefulness. It hasn't gotten much better over the past several months :/
Why might a delayed release capsule be more beneficial? Do you recommend delayed for any of your patients? If so, do you mind revealing why it might be advantageous to take delayed. Thanks
So I'm still learning more about the delayed release and testing it out. The claim is that the delayed release is better for GI conditions because it stays in the gut for longer. I'm still testing that out to see if I see that pattern as well
Great question! Personally, I think most people should transition into barefoot runners, unless there is significant congenital changes in the feet, such as being truly flat footed. You have to be really careful with transitioning, and you have to do it slow! Too fast and you risk injuring yourself worse. There's a great podcast called The Drive by Peter Attia. He did an episode with Beth Lewis on barefoot shoes, I highly recommend you listening.
@@DrewTimmermansND Thanks! My BPC-157 arrives tomorrow and hopefully it heals me in time before I go to Airborne school for the Army. Appreciate your help!
I bought a bottle along with Epicatechin but honestly am afraid to take it . I'm on Lisinopril 10mg daily for blood pressure. Wondering if it's ok to take with that . My bottle of Bpc157 says take two capsules daily.
What’s the recommended dosage subq at an injury site? How long would you run a cycle ? Can you elaborate on the dosing slide you showed it briefly, but didn’t get back to it. I don’t understand all of the acronyms.
@@DrewTimmermansND I watched the other lecture, thank you. I wanted to know if you could split a dosage up into multiple (IM, IA, SQ) injection sites for a few different injuries, or would it be more beneficial to address one injury at a time to seek more benefits quicker? How likely is it to get an orthopedic doctor to willingly administer it through an imaging source such as ultrasound sound if I already have the peptide? In the lecture I heard you said it’s more beneficial to administer it through fluoroscopy or ultrasound to get directly into the damaged tissue/joint so IA. This would be difficult to do alone and more painful, so could an individual perform IA injects and IM by themselves through research? Strictly for research purposes.
I do not recommend you try injecting inside the joint or into tendons yourself as that could cause more harm if you hit dangerous structures. Just a single subQ injection in the belly is enough for most people as it goes systemic and helps multiple different injuries that way.
Hey Doc! Just ordered my BPC from the link provided. How should the doses be taken? With food, on an empty stomach, daytime or night? Thanks again for the informative video!
@@mikem7788 Mostly good. I took it for a week and some of my old inuries/aches and pains have subsided tremendously. I had an old rotator cuff issue and a pinched nerve in my upper back and those have gone away to the point where I can continue olympic weight lifting. I stopped because I was getting some tingling in my chest (similar feelings to anxiety). It could have all been in my head. I also take a handful of other supplements so it could have been a mixture of that. Next time I dose with bpc I will stop taking my other supplements, but I'll use it as an as needed supplement.
Hi Drew. I have a slap (labrum) tear of my right shoulder. I have recently been speaking to a weightlifter who told me he had slap tears in both shoulders (one of which was so bad he could'nt lift his arm half way) but recovered with no surgery, using a targeted program for nearly a year. I am looking to do the same and try to rehab with no surgery and resume the weightlifting I could before this injury. I am looking specifically at doing a program of BPC 157 and TB 500 along with rehab work for shoulder. Is recovery possible without surgery?
Yes recovery is possible without surgery! We've had a good chunk of people come through our clinic that we've helped heal labral tears without surgery, using supplements, peptides, regenerative injections and PT
@@DrewTimmermansND I had not had a Cortisone shot in a long time because the last time I had one it felt like it was not working much for me and I heard that they are bad in the long run. I started taking BPC 157 and TB 500 and I have been taking it for quite a while. I decided to actually go ahead and get another Cortisone shot. My shoulder is REMARKABLY better. I am feeling no pain or agitation. I went online and read that Cortisone along with BPC 157/TB500 works wonders. I went into the gym yesterday and bench pressed with no pain whatsoever. I am still taking it slow as it pertains to increasing my weight load......but honestly I feel like I have a new shoulder.
Nope not at all. BPC-157 is just as effective when taking it orally compared to other methods. So much so that I have videos explaining that, and 97% of the time I prescribe oral to my patients because it's cheaper, safer (if you're not getting it from a compounding pharmacy) and it's easier.
that's not my area of expertise (that's actually my wife's), but there are a few great peptides that she uses for hair loss found here (bit.ly/3fAqcQg). There are additional prescription only ones she uses in conjunction with PRP injections into the scalp, but the ones from the link can be helpful in certain situations!
Hey Doctor. What dose would you recommend for a meniscus tear and recovery of ACL surgery. I will be injecting in the area. 500 mcg a day? Thanks in advance.
First, you don't need to inject in that area, as that doesn't improve outcomes. Second, here's our standard advice which is for oral, as we use oral most often as it works just as well as injectable: The most common starting dose we use with patients is 500mcg, once per day on an empty stomach. The time of day doesn't really matter in our opinion. We normally have patients take BPC-157 for at least a month to determine if they see improvements, but sometimes it takes longer to see effects as tissue healing takes time. We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress. If they regress, we put them back on it.
Doc, 65 World Class OLYMPIC LIFTER in the 1980s...Still real strong. 100 kilos class still. Slight Shoulder injury, and groin pull. What if 1ml in injury every day? 1/2 in each sight.
I am a pitcher and had Tommy John surgery about 8 months and still dealing with pain in my elbow. Would BPC-157 be a beneficial treatment? I have tried PT and about every other type of treatment
Possible to heal the tear, but can't say for sure unless you try it. Most people notice improvements in their pain within the first 4 weeks! If it helps, it could could 6 months or more to fully heal
I'm terribly sorry to hear that. It possibly could, I wouldn't be able to give more than that unless I performed a physical exam on her. This is the place we recommend: bit.ly/2WsJtby
The nasal spray is likely still effective, but less studied. Make sure it's BPC-157 arginate salt though. Can't say if you should add it in or not as I'd nor your physician, sorry
It can be yes, but there's no literature on this so not sure how effective it is for recovering from exercise. I would make sure you have other things dialed in first for exercise recovery before spending the money on BPC-157- proper rest and sleep, 1g protein per lb of lean body mass per day, 5g creatine per day, etc.
Very good video 😊 for how long should you take bcp 157? Until you have no pain or should you take it longer? Can you take it even if you don't have any pain just to prevent injuries?
We have not had any patients who have ever healed cartilage from using BPC-157. We have had people see improvements in pain, but we don't see evidence of true cartilage healing on an MRI. If we are aiming for cartilage or meniscus healing, we are usually needing to opt for high dose PRP or stem cell therapy, delivered into the joint, into the meniscus, and into the bone deep to the cartilage. If you decide to trial the BPC-157 oral, here is our approach: The most common starting dose we use with patients is 500mcg, once per day on an empty stomach. The time of day doesn't really matter in our opinion. We normally have patients take BPC-157 for at least a month to determine if they see improvements, but sometimes it takes longer to see effects as tissue healing takes time. We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress. If they regress, we put them back on it. We use the BPC-157 capsules from InfiniWell as they use the arginate salt. To help out, we have a 20% patient discount code on our website regenerativeperformance.com/supplements (code is RP20). Once on that website, click the InfiniWell link, and then choose the product labeled 'BPC-157 Original 250mcg'. This is the version that does not have SNAC, which we find works better.
In your opinion, would the combination of using a tens machine and taking bpc 157 help me with my meniscus? Even though you've said there is no true evidence bpc 157 restores cartilage? Thank you for your reply
If you look at the research, yes oral is just as effective as injection despite the first pass effect of the liver. We still don't fully understand what happens to the BPC-157 after absorption, so it might not even be converted to anything else in the liver, or it might be converted into something that also stimulates healing. Clinically we see the same response - for the most part, oral is just as effective as injections. Some individuals have responded better to one vs the other, but when looking at a large sample of people, they are equal in efficacy for most people.
We haven't used it for a ton, but in those cases we recommend opening the capsules and putting in some water and then swishing in the mouth before swallowing.
Yea even when you inject it subQ it will still have an impact on the entire body even without swishing in mouth. You can still do that and it's orally bioavailable
I have been injecting BPC157 both intramuscular into my front delt and sub q around the side of my shoulder . Would there be any negative effects if I hit a vein in my front felt? I’m trying to heal a torn labrum due to a dislocated shoulder. Thank you for your videos on these peptides ; they are extremely helpful and informative
I don't think so. I have hit blood vessels when I inject and never had any problems besides bleeding. But if you are using a insulin syringe I don't think you'll hit a vein. You could take orally too, if you are really concerned. I use it for my shoulder too. Started with injections and now oral. Same healing effects, but less of a hassle to take a capsule IMO. :) Good luck with your recovery!
Hey I also tore my shoulder labrum. How did your experience with BPC157 go with healing it? I am undecided on surgery or trying to rehab would love to know how yours went
Drew Timmermans, ND , what if my instability is in multiple places? Maybe from an autoimmune disorder ? Would prolo still be the best option? Or can I try bpc 157? I’ve done 6 rounds of Prolotherapy in my neck and saw very little improvement. I did 2 rounds in my shoulder and spine. One round of prp. And very little improvement overall. Would that mean that I need more rounds or would it mean that Prolotherapy is not working on me?
As I havent dont a medical workup on you I cant say for your case what would be best. But 1-2 bottles of BPC through tailormade would be cheaper than prolotherapy so might not be a bad idea to consider. Tailormade is the only over the counter BPC that is legit as they hold the patent fyi shop.tailormadehealth.com/?rfsn=4194956.32c80c
Drew Timmermans, ND , bought my first bottle last week! Can’t wait to see results. My dr thinks it could be an autoimmune disorder like lymes that made all my collagen loose. I’ll be getting blood work done soon
Would BPC-157 work good for natural treatment of light bursitis of the elbow? Been having this inflamation pain come and go after training for a couple of months now 3-4.

Been watching your videos and they are very educational. Had a question? Came off of my trt last March and began to have symptoms such as costocondritis and now having acid reflux in my stomach because of the inflammation from my rib cage. So now I am on omeprazole 20mg daily kinda helping but now really, also prescribed on naproxen which last me maybe two weeks and didn’t do nothing. Been researching this bpc-157 and looks promising, but my question is can I inject the bpc-157 into my ribcage cartilage same with my chest in some areas that I am in pain??
don't inject the BPC into your ribcage cartilage. Unnecessary and risky. Just take the oral version, it works just as good as injectable in most people.

Sorry to hear that! I cant say if it will help you or not, but your injury is something that the BPC-157 could help with. We usually add in TB4 for our biggest cases (such as a pet tear) or if there is scar tissue. At some point you'll want to load the tissues (exercise) but you don't want to rush that. Take it slow, and slowly overload as tolerable. If you still have issues at the 6-9 month mark you could consider looking into regenerative injections
@@DrewTimmermansND thanks for the informative video. I have recent injuries that happened ( within the last 6 months) , elbow, wrist and Achilles heel from my gym time and tennis. My question is what kind of medical practitioner would I need to visit to get the prp injections prior to starting bpc orally? And can you suggest genuinely good oral brand I can get? Hopefully without a prescription. My GP is very conservative and reluctant to start any treatments I discuss.

would this help repair cartilage from repeat shoulder dislocations? also how long do I have to use it to get back to weights
There isn't a ton of research on cartilage repair. In those situations I prefer to use injections like PRP or microfragmented adipose tissue
@No No did you get your injectable thru pharm or trusted site? If so what site?
That is really strange. Which brands have you used?

No one wants to spend the money to do a proper study because BPC-157 has already infiltrated the market.
@@DrewTimmermansND if a big pharma did a study and it was successful wouldn't they be able to bring this to mainstream audiences and make money that way? It's confusing to me the anecdotal success has not pushed for larger effects to research and approve this treatment
BPC-157 can't be patented at this point, so if big pharma paid millions to run a study, they wouldn't have exclusive rights to it, so they wouldn't make their money back
Because that’s how the pharmaceutical industry works.
How much can one roughly expect to spend to get the injectable form from your clinic for everything, including visits and medication? I'm guessing around 700?
Who are those students? Is this a private school? Why's this class so small?
This was from a small weekend seminar I taught
Which lab do you recommend we purchase from?

Does BPC-157 repair tendons and ligaments better if you inject it straight into the tendon/ligament?
We have found that yes, so we sometimes include that in our injections.
Hi ! I have a labral tear of the shoulder and i wonder if you ever had patient getting result after taking bpc-157 for this kind of injury ? Thank you
Yep, both shoulder and hip labral tears have responded positively to the BPC-157. If you're in the USA, this is the one we recommend: bit.ly/3gTNrEI
@@DrewTimmermansND Thank you so much for your answer ! It gives me hope to heal this injury. Unfortunatly i'm not in USA.
Any idea on how i could get good BPC 157 quality ?
My pleasure! If you're in Canada you can work with docs to get it from a compounding pharmacy as well. Outside that, I'm sorry I don't.
Hey did you ever use BPC157 for your shoulder labrum tear? I have the same injury and looking for some peoples experiences!
are there any cognitive benefits? Memory, depression, anxiety improvement?
Curious on this as well. I have issues with all of these things pretty severely, I’m going to start taking this in the near future along with some other things and will see what happens. I also have quite a few unhealed injuries that need healing so working on that as well.
Some patients have reported this yes, which I think is more so due to the improvement in the GI system, which has an impact on the nervous system.

form doesn't matter, so oral is easier. We use the BPC-157 capsules from InfiniWell as they use the arginate salt.

This is the version that does not have SNAC, which we find works better.
The most common starting dose we use with patients is 500mcg, once per day on an empty stomach. The time of day doesn't really matter in our opinion. We normally have patients take BPC-157 for at least a month to determine if they see improvements, but sometimes it takes longer to see effects as tissue healing takes time. We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress. If they regress, we put them back on it.
@@DrewTimmermansND do I get the delayed or original etc?
As the first message says, we use the Original Formula
Could you please inform on side effects, especially the heavy neurological ones affecting the frontal lobe? Lots of anecdotes out there on this issues and it would be nice to have a professional honest view on it.
I am still not clear on where the frontal lobe side effects are coming from. This has never been documented in the research, and I've never had it any of our patients (>300 patients at this point). We have always used BPC from trusted sources. From talking with people, not a single case that I'm aware of when the peptide came from a compounding pharmacy. I have concerns that its because people buy junk from labs that aren't compounding pharmacies.
That's what I know at this point. Still always looking into it.
@@DrewTimmermansND basically anyone can find these anecdotes on peptide communities both on Reddit and Facebook groups, plus several comments on TH-cam videos. These are people who allegedly tried BPC 157 (various sources and regular 250-500mcg per day, i.e. nothing crazy) and even with only 3 initial doses already reported a change in their drive/motivation, mood/personality, lack of emotional connections, loss of sensitivity to stimulants and even to pleasure; anhedonia, and others. There’s even a poll made by an admin in one of these FB groups and statistically these people with pretty negative effects represent 10% of cohort. Pretty serious I’d say
I'm not saying that these are not occurring, I'm just still trying to figure out if it's actually from the compound BPC-157, or a filler or something bunk used in non-pharmaceutical products. We have to figure out more. At this time I have not had a single case with using pharmaceutical grade BPC-157.
@@DrewTimmermansND thanks! Out of curiosity: are you and your team documenting your results (w/ humans) officially to release a formal study/paper in the scientific community any time soon? That would definitely be amazing and very constructive!
Unfortunately not, because that would require that we only use BPC-157 as a solo therapy, which we rarely do. In order to be a 'good' scientific paper is should only have 1 variable and a placebo group. That would require a full clinical trial, which is not something we are set up for.
What do you think about the use of peptides while you have an active infection? Lets say you have a collagen disease caused by an infectious disease, treating it takes years though. Meanwhile more and more damage is caused, do you think starting with peptides sooner rather than later is a good idea even while you might still have an infectious agent in you? I understand that, at least the regenerative, peptides do not have any antimicrobial purposes so obviously this would be for example while you are on antibiotic therapy. Do you happen to know any reason why this might be contraindicated? Thank you!
Little too in depth to answer outside of an appointment. We use some peptides to help with the infection, but never instead of standard of care
Would BPC-157 be good for repairing damaged neurotransmitter systems? I took very high dose Betahistine for a short time to try to upregulate my H3 receptor, which turned out to be a bad idea because now I have a constant extreme lack of wakefulness. It hasn't gotten much better over the past several months :/
neuro is not my area of speciality, sorry.
Why might a delayed release capsule be more beneficial? Do you recommend delayed for any of your patients? If so, do you mind revealing why it might be advantageous to take delayed.
Thanks
ditto
So I'm still learning more about the delayed release and testing it out. The claim is that the delayed release is better for GI conditions because it stays in the gut for longer. I'm still testing that out to see if I see that pattern as well
I have chronic extensor tendonitis in my foot, would transitioning to barefoot running be a good stimulus for my foot to heal?
Great question! Personally, I think most people should transition into barefoot runners, unless there is significant congenital changes in the feet, such as being truly flat footed.
You have to be really careful with transitioning, and you have to do it slow! Too fast and you risk injuring yourself worse.
There's a great podcast called The Drive by Peter Attia. He did an episode with Beth Lewis on barefoot shoes, I highly recommend you listening.

What’s the recommended dosage subq at an injury site? How long would you run a cycle ? Can you elaborate on the dosing slide you showed it briefly, but didn’t get back to it. I don’t understand all of the acronyms.
I have another longer lecture on youtube about BPC and other peptides! Search for that and you'll find the answers :)
@@DrewTimmermansND I watched the other lecture, thank you. I wanted to know if you could split a dosage up into multiple (IM, IA, SQ) injection sites for a few different injuries, or would it be more beneficial to address one injury at a time to seek more benefits quicker? How likely is it to get an orthopedic doctor to willingly administer it through an imaging source such as ultrasound sound if I already have the peptide? In the lecture I heard you said it’s more beneficial to administer it through fluoroscopy or ultrasound to get directly into the damaged tissue/joint so IA. This would be difficult to do alone and more painful, so could an individual perform IA injects and IM by themselves through research? Strictly for research purposes.
I do not recommend you try injecting inside the joint or into tendons yourself as that could cause more harm if you hit dangerous structures. Just a single subQ injection in the belly is enough for most people as it goes systemic and helps multiple different injuries that way.
What about nasal application?
Don't see benefit over oral
@@DrewTimmermansND so there is no effect at all when applied nasally?
There is, but there's no added benefit over oral in my opinion.

I had an old rotator cuff issue and a pinched nerve in my upper back and those have gone away to the point where I can continue olympic weight lifting. I stopped because I was getting some tingling in my chest (similar feelings to anxiety). It could have all been in my head. I also take a handful of other supplements so it could have been a mixture of that. Next time I dose with bpc I will stop taking my other supplements, but I'll use it as an as needed supplement.

Hey Doc, what company do you recommend getting injectable BPC 157
Only compounding pharmacies through a doctors prescription
Hi Drew. I have a slap (labrum) tear of my right shoulder. I have recently been speaking to a weightlifter who told me he had slap tears in both shoulders (one of which was so bad he could'nt lift his arm half way) but recovered with no surgery, using a targeted program for nearly a year. I am looking to do the same and try to rehab with no surgery and resume the weightlifting I could before this injury. I am looking specifically at doing a program of BPC 157 and TB 500 along with rehab work for shoulder. Is recovery possible without surgery?
Yes recovery is possible without surgery! We've had a good chunk of people come through our clinic that we've helped heal labral tears without surgery, using supplements, peptides, regenerative injections and PT
@@DrewTimmermansND Thanks for the reply. This is good to know. Your videos are always very informative. I appreciate it.
@@DrewTimmermansND I had not had a Cortisone shot in a long time because the last time I had one it felt like it was not working much for me and I heard that they are bad in the long run. I started taking BPC 157 and TB 500 and I have been taking it for quite a while. I decided to actually go ahead and get another Cortisone shot. My shoulder is REMARKABLY better. I am feeling no pain or agitation. I went online and read that Cortisone along with BPC 157/TB500 works wonders. I went into the gym yesterday and bench pressed with no pain whatsoever. I am still taking it slow as it pertains to increasing my weight load......but honestly I feel like I have a new shoulder.
would oral BPC be as effective as an injectable?
In our experience, yes it is when you use the Arginate form
I’ve been prescribed the injectable version and I haven’t noticed anything healing up faster. Nothing
How long have you been on it? Which pharmacy did it come from? It doesn't work in 100% of situations.
I pulled my hamstring twice in the past month. Would this help me recover faster?
Potentially! We use it for acute injuries. Worth trying IMO. This is the brand we use - bit.ly/3gTNrEI and you can use our code RP10 for 10% off
is it useless when taking it orally?
Nope not at all. BPC-157 is just as effective when taking it orally compared to other methods. So much so that I have videos explaining that, and 97% of the time I prescribe oral to my patients because it's cheaper, safer (if you're not getting it from a compounding pharmacy) and it's easier.
@@DrewTimmermansND ok, is the product in the link third party tested?

that's not my area of expertise (that's actually my wife's), but there are a few great peptides that she uses for hair loss found here (bit.ly/3fAqcQg).

Hey Doctor. What dose would you recommend for a meniscus tear and recovery of ACL surgery. I will be injecting in the area. 500 mcg a day? Thanks in advance.
First, you don't need to inject in that area, as that doesn't improve outcomes.
Second, here's our standard advice which is for oral, as we use oral most often as it works just as well as injectable: The most common starting dose we use with patients is 500mcg, once per day on an empty stomach. The time of day doesn't really matter in our opinion. We normally have patients take BPC-157 for at least a month to determine if they see improvements, but sometimes it takes longer to see effects as tissue healing takes time. We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress. If they regress, we put them back on it.

Joshua brought up a point, can BPC 157 be used as an athletic prophylaxis and prior surgery?
It can be yes, but there's no literature on this so not sure how effective it is for recovering from exercise.

Very good video 😊 for how long should you take bcp 157? Until you have no pain or should you take it longer? Can you take it even if you don't have any pain just to prevent injuries?
I don't think it should be used to prevent injuries, but it can be taken for several months as part of the healing process.
Can BPC 157 heal/restore cartilage? as i have a meniscus injury that i have been dealing with for the longest time
We have not had any patients who have ever healed cartilage from using BPC-157. We have had people see improvements in pain, but we don't see evidence of true cartilage healing on an MRI. If we are aiming for cartilage or meniscus healing, we are usually needing to opt for high dose PRP or stem cell therapy, delivered into the joint, into the meniscus, and into the bone deep to the cartilage.
If you decide to trial the BPC-157 oral, here is our approach: The most common starting dose we use with patients is 500mcg, once per day on an empty stomach. The time of day doesn't really matter in our opinion. We normally have patients take BPC-157 for at least a month to determine if they see improvements, but sometimes it takes longer to see effects as tissue healing takes time. We then have patients continue on the BPC-157 for several months, and then we might trial taking them off to see if their symptoms remained improved or if they regress.

In your opinion, would the combination of using a tens machine and taking bpc 157 help me with my meniscus? Even though you've said there is no true evidence bpc 157 restores cartilage? Thank you for your reply
we haven't seen fantastic results with meniscus tears. We are usually looking at PRP or stem cell therapy for meniscus tears
Are the pills as effective as injections for soft tissue repair? If so, how is that? Doesn't it have to pass through the liver?
If you look at the research, yes oral is just as effective as injection despite the first pass effect of the liver. We still don't fully understand what happens to the BPC-157 after absorption, so it might not even be converted to anything else in the liver, or it might be converted into something that also stimulates healing. Clinically we see the same response - for the most part, oral is just as effective as injections. Some individuals have responded better to one vs the other, but when looking at a large sample of people, they are equal in efficacy for most people.

Thank you for your videos on these peptides ; they are extremely helpful and informative
I don't think so. I have hit blood vessels when I inject and never had any problems besides bleeding. But if you are using a insulin syringe I don't think you'll hit a vein. You could take orally too, if you are really concerned. I use it for my shoulder too. Started with injections and now oral. Same healing effects, but less of a hassle to take a capsule IMO. :) Good luck with your recovery!
Hey I also tore my shoulder labrum. How did your experience with BPC157 go with healing it? I am undecided on surgery or trying to rehab would love to know how yours went
An updates on the torn labrum healing?
What do you think about BPC patches?
Unnecessary, oral works really good.
Bpc or Prolotherapy for ligament instability?
Primary prolotherapy, secondary BPC. If you can do both even better. But if you can only do 1, then prolotherpy IMO
Drew Timmermans, ND , what if my instability is in multiple places? Maybe from an autoimmune disorder ? Would prolo still be the best option?
Or can I try bpc 157?
I’ve done 6 rounds of Prolotherapy in my neck and saw very little improvement. I did 2 rounds in my shoulder and spine. One round of prp. And very little improvement overall. Would that mean that I need more rounds or would it mean that Prolotherapy is not working on me?
As I havent dont a medical workup on you I cant say for your case what would be best. But 1-2 bottles of BPC through tailormade would be cheaper than prolotherapy so might not be a bad idea to consider. Tailormade is the only over the counter BPC that is legit as they hold the patent fyi

Sorry to hear that! I cant say if it will help you or not, but your injury is something that the BPC-157 could help with. We usually add in TB4 for our biggest cases (such as a pet tear) or if there is scar tissue.
At some point you'll want to load the tissues (exercise) but you don't want to rush that. Take it slow, and slowly overload as tolerable. If you still have issues at the 6-9 month mark you could consider looking into regenerative injections
