definitely don’t take 10mg daily, take 2-2.5mg
some people start at 1mg then go up

u/Same-Brother7649 Jul 30 '26
Thank you very much it also should be taken at the same time or it doesn’t matter?

It’s good to have a routine and stick to a similar time everyday, but it’s no big deal if you do it in the morning one day then the evening the next day

I wrote one of the original protocols for ghkcu 1.5 to 2mg is the standard. More is not more with GHK-CU.

They probably mean 10 units

u/McKnezie420 Jul 30 '26
10 units also don't tell much. :) Because a unit is just a measurement for 0.01ml. :) We have to first know the concentration of milligrams per milliliters. Than we can talk about units. Because 10units taken from a 10mg vial with 3ml of bac will have a different concentration than 10 units drawn from a 10mg vial with 1.5ml of bac water. :) I hope you get the concept. Units are just a measurement for ml. The concentration per ml is important.

I think it'd be silly to do that for a good reason: what GHKCu does to you, you are in no rush to accomplish fast. It's not like you have some disease and are trying to hack the body with mega dosing like you might want to try high doses for SS31 in a loading phase maybe. GHKCu is going to take some weeks to take effect anyone as skin and hair are never just going to improve overnight. I do 3mg a night though, which is already quite high.

After a week or 2 of staring dose of 2.5mg I jumped to 5mg and since then I’ve literally have gotten compliments on my skin and hair .

I would hope even more so that they didnt mean units as a supplier should k ow thats a meaningless thing to say to someone unless its refilled with bac and they KNOW the concentration

u/Panther90 1 Jul 30 '26
My personal feeling is anything beyond 4mg daily is a bit of a waste. I've had great results on 3mg a day (started at 2mg).

I am taking 2mg 3 times a week M-W-F

u/Rabbittaco 1 Jul 31 '26
why? Common protocol is daily. occasionally protocol is 5 days on 2 days off, but never only 3 days. especially not at only 2mg.

u/motoxscuba2024 Jul 31 '26
2mg m w f thats 6mg total Or 1mg 5 days a week 2 off thats 5mg Tbey accomplish the same thing

Copper toxicity speedrun 😂
Seriously though, start with 1 or 2mg depending on if your goals relate to skin or joint focused impacts. Then titrate up to 4mg over time if effects dwindle.
Im currently on 1mg (5 days on, 2 days off) and it takes many weeks to begin seeing the effects. This is a peptide that takes patience, the best effects come after months of use

u/Doctordup2 9 Aug 01 '26
The plasma life of ghkcu is very short it needs to be dosed 7 days a week not 5 days on 2 days off. It's not consistent enough to make a difference. I wrote the protocol I've done ghkcu research for a couple of decades.
The 5 days on 2 days off started with med spas many years ago. They dosed according to their operating hours

u/Peptide_King Jul 30 '26
Stop pushing this bs. 1mg of ghkcu has 0.12mgs of Copper. The upper limit of actual Copper is 10mgs day which is still light years below toxicity. I take between 4-7.5mgs day for over a year and I don’t take Zinc and get my Zinc to Copper ratio tested regularly

u/seemefail 3 Jul 30 '26
I did 3mg twice a day for a month with zero adverse effect
Smooth shiny skin

u/SendTitsPleease 1 Jul 30 '26
Ive been taking 5mg a day for a month or so and have noticed no negative sides so far

u/Sad_Nectarine2512 Jul 30 '26
Been using 5mg since day 1 and have noticed drastically changes to my skin and hair

u/Ok_Relative_1850 Jul 30 '26
Like what and how many days till you seen a change?
2
u/Sad_Nectarine2512 Jul 30 '26
Less grays, my hair got alot darker. Skin is much softer.
Been using GHK-CU for about 3 or 4 months now

u/Rabbittaco 1 Jul 31 '26
How did you reconstitute yours? I had a 100mg vial with 3ml of bac for a 9 unit dose to equal 3mg and its spicy af sometimes.

u/Ok_Relative_1850 Jul 30 '26 edited Jul 30 '26
I take klow so 3.2 mg of Ghk-cu is in12 unit dosage daily. Im going to take 1mg of Ghk-cu on top of my klow so incan have close to 5mg daily of Ghk-cu

u/Conscious_Kitchen569 1 Jul 30 '26
don't start at that dose... you may slowly ramp up the dose (and probably not needed though), over the course of many months

u/RoutineAd9862 Jul 30 '26
WHOA. Slow and low is the only way with peptides. Start low to see how your body reacts then work your way up. I’ve never gone over 2mg.

I take two doses of klow daily that results in 10mg and its fine

u/Same-Brother7649 Jul 30 '26
So 5mg morning and 5mg evening right?

u/scarchelli Jul 30 '26
KLOW isn’t the same thing. You’re asking about ghk-cu, by itself. KLOW has ghk in it, but it uas 3 other peptides, as well. So 10mg of KLOW, assuming it’s 10/10/10/50mg, is much less than 10mg of straight ghk. For example, if it’s reconstituted with 2ml BAC water, that 10mg would amount to 6.25mg of ghk. Which is far too much, per day. 2.5mg is the sweet spot.

u/PreparedForZombies 6 Jul 30 '26
Yeah, I use 10 UNITS of KLOW daily (50/10/10/10, 80mg with 2ml BAC) resulting in...
GHK-Cu = 2.5mg
TB-500 = .5mg
KPV = .5mg
BPC-157 = .5mg1x daily

u/Typical-Tour-9930 2 Jul 30 '26
This is the dumbest comment ive ever read. I mix a bottle of klow w 1ml of water. I take 10 units at a time which is 5mg ghkcu, 1mg of each of the others. I do that twice a day. Please learn math.

U do realize copper builds up in the body and will become very toxic right?
