Hello everyone,

I'm just about 2 weeks out from a PASTA (Partial Articular Supraspinatus Tendon Avulsion) repair, plus a few smaller shoulder tears. I also had PRP and stem cell injections done in my shoulder, 1 knee, and 1 ankle.

Every day I inject 675 mcg of TB-500 and 675 mcg of BPC-157. The dosing guidance out there seems wildly inconsistent.

For BPC-157, the usual suggestion is 250-500mcg per day. Since I'm taking 675mcg/day, is that too much? Could it lead to issues?

For TB-500, I've seen recommendations anywhere from 5 mg to 20 mg each week. My 675mcg/day adds up to 4.427 mg weekly, so it falls within that range.

I'd appreciate input on how much and how often to use these from anyone who has taken them while recovering from surgery. Thanks!
 
I haven't tried BPC for a surgical procedure, though I have taken it. My dose was .5mg twice daily over 6 weeks… I saw clear gains in my rotator cuffs and tennis elbow.

Clinical research is limited, but with BPC it would be tough to take too much or notice any buzz.

Appreciate it. Hearing that it worked out well for you is encouraging. Things are progressing nicely on my end. Since my partner underwent the identical procedure, I can compare and I'm clearly ahead at the same checkpoints. Considering what you said, I might increase the BPC. Thank you.

When I first began, I was dosing 1mg twice daily by mistake. Nothing negative that I could notice came from it.

My intention is to stockpile sufficient amounts so that I can start a cycle at any moment I feel like it
 
For 12 weeks I've been pinning 1mg of BPC each day, split across a 5x2 schedule, all while keeping my training intense. Nothing negative has come up yet, and healing has gone really well. I combine it with KPV at 500mcg per day on a 5x2 pattern, tb500 at 1.5mg three times weekly, plus Ghk-cu at 1mg 5x2. Every one of those has worked out well for me. A few weeks back I introduced Thymosin Alpha-1, and that has treated me nicely as well.

So most likely your dose is not a problem

On top of that, I use Tesamorlin at night before sleeping, also for recovery.
