Peptide
GHRP-6
SaveA synthetic hexapeptide growth-hormone secretagogue acting on the ghrelin receptor, known for potent GH release and strong appetite stimulation.
Quick verdict
Effective GH secretagogue with well-documented appetite increase. Less selective than newer alternatives like ipamorelin.
Evidence score
A rough internal score reflecting quantity, quality, and consistency of human evidence. Not a clinical recommendation.
What the research shows
Extensive human pharmacologic data. Significant GH release but also strong appetite stimulation and modest cortisol/prolactin elevation. One of the earliest GHRPs studied.
Benefits
- Robust GH release in human studies
- Well-characterized pharmacology
- Useful when appetite stimulation is desired
Dosage notes
Typical: 100–300 mcg subcutaneously 2–3 times daily on an empty stomach.
Side effects
- Intense hunger
- Water retention
- Mild cortisol and prolactin elevation
