What is GHRP-6?
GHRP-6 (Full ghrelin mimetic — Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide-6) is a 6-amino acid hexapeptide. Ghrelin mimetic with full GHSR-1a agonist profile — produces strong GH release with pronounced appetite stimulation, GI motility effects, and cortisol/prolactin co-stimulation characteristic of native ghrelin. The reference compound for full ghrelin receptor biology research.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I reconstitute this peptide?
Add 1–2mL bacteriostatic water to the lyophilized vial, directing water down the inner wall. Swirl gently until dissolved. Both GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 are hexapeptides that dissolve readily to a clear, colourless solution.
How should this peptide be stored?
Store lyophilized at −20°C. Reconstituted at 2–8°C for up to 28 days. GHRPs are relatively stable peptides — avoid repeated freeze-thaw and direct UV exposure.
What purity is this QSC compound and how is it verified?
QSC GHRP-2 and GHRP-6 are ≥99% pure by HPLC with MS identity confirmation on every batch. COA is published on the product page and verifiable via Janoshik.
