Can CJC-1295 cause joint pain?

This site's CJC-1295 studies do not measure joint pain. Two 2006 studies in healthy adults found its half-life was 5.8 to 8.1 days. A single shot raised average growth hormone two- to tenfold for six days or more, and IGF-1 rose 1.5- to threefold for nine to eleven days. A related study found growth hormone at its lowest point was still 7.5-fold higher a week later, while the body's normal hormone pulses did not change. Those results are hormone levels, not joint pain. This FAQ does not invent a joint-pain rate the studies do not contain. Full record at /compounds/cjc-1295.
