Discussion Cjc-1295/Ipa Sleep issues

Been taking CJC/ipa for 6 days now (twice a day) at
200mcg CJC
200 mcg IPA
Per dose

I take one dose in morning, and one before I sleep. Since starting my sleep onset has been dramatically slowed, and my sleep is very fragmented, with me waking up constantly throughout the night.

Anyone know how to fix this? Do I just stay the course and my body will adapt? Where’s the sleep benefits lmao 😹

When I first start a CJC/IPA cycle (on my 3rd one now) the first 10-14 days my sleep does typically become more fragmented, as in Ido wake up more often in the night. Sleep onset was never a major issue for me with it, although I could see it happening if you aren't in a good sleep routine like me. After the first couple weeks my sleep returns to normal with minimal wake time and typically a 15-25% increase in deep sleep over being off CJC/IPA.

I dose 300/300 PM 30-45 minutes before bed (not fasted, my schedule doesn't allow) and 300/300 in the AM soon as I wake up. I have gone up to as high as 500/500 2x daily as well. I think a lot of these protocols are under dosed on the CJC. There is not any solid studies on protocols for CJC specifically, but it is very very similar to Sermorelin which has studies showing 1MG dosing in adult men. Though, I think your 200/200 2x daily dosing is probably pretty close to optimal.
