THE GH SUSTAINER

CJC-1295 DAC, GRF (1-29) analog with DAC, CJC-1295 w/ DAC

CJC-1295 with DAC (Drug Affinity Complex) binds to albumin in your blood, extending its half-life to about a week. That means just 1-2 injections weekly produce sustained growth hormone elevation. That's convenient, but the steady GH bleed is less physiologic than the pulsatile pattern your body produces naturally.

What are the side effects of CJC-1295 (with DAC)?

Reported side effects of CJC-1295 (with DAC) include Flushing, Injection site irritation, Water retention, Joint pain, and Fatigue.

More context

They are reported or occasional reactions, not a prediction of what any one person will experience.

Is CJC-1295 (with DAC) safe?

CJC-1295 (with DAC) has an editorial safety grade of B (Good Safety).

More context

Generally well-tolerated but the sustained GH elevation can cause more water retention and joint pain than pulsatile dosing. Safety depends on dose, sourcing, health history and medical supervision, so this page does not call it safe for personal use.

ConjuChem's molecular design

ConjuChem researchers described CJC-1295 in 2005 as a modified human growth-hormone-releasing factor analogue. Its design combines four substitutions in the 1-29 peptide with an additional C-terminal lysine bearing a reactive maleimide group. That group was designed for covalent attachment to serum albumin. It is the chemical feature relevant to this catalog's with-DAC entry.
