BPC-157 is a short peptide, a small chain of amino acids. It was first found in human stomach juice. People use it for tendon, joint and muscle injuries, and for the gut.
Almost all research is in rats or in the lab. Human trials are registered, but no results are out yet. The doses sold to people have not been tested in a human trial.

| Used for | Dose | How often |
|---|---|---|
| Maintenance | 250 mcg | Once a day |
| Tendon or joint injury | 500 mcg | Once or twice a day |
| Serious injury | 1 mg | Twice a day |
Market ranges are 250 to 500 mcg for joints and general healing, and 500 to 1000 mcg for serious injury, for 4 to 12 weeks. No human trial has tested these doses. A dose scaled from the animal studies would be much lower.
