What does GHRP-2 stand for?

GHRP is Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide. 2 is the catalogue number of this hexapeptide. This site's profile lists the full name Pralmorelin (Growth Hormone Releasing Peptide 2), alias Pralmorelin, molecular weight 817.0 daltons. It is approved in Japan as a diagnostic of pituitary GH secretion: validation in 77 healthy subjects and 58 GH-deficient patients used a 100 microgram intravenous test. That is a diagnostic record, not a treatment approval in the US, UK, Australia, or Canada. The letters are a laboratory code, not a brand ranking and not a dose. Full record at /compounds/ghrp-2.

Part of growth hormone secretagogues. Sermorelin, tesamorelin, ipamorelin, CJC-1295, and the rest of the GHRH and ghrelin receptor family.
