Peptide Administration Cycles

Meaning

Peptide Administration Cycles refer to the precisely timed, structured periods of therapeutic use and subsequent breaks or washout phases for specific signaling peptides, designed to maximize biological efficacy while preventing receptor desensitization or negative feedback on the body’s endogenous endocrine axes. This systematic cycling strategy is employed to optimize the pulsatile release of target hormones, such as growth hormone or insulin-like growth factor 1, ensuring sustained physiological responsiveness and minimizing potential long-term suppressive effects. The cycles are tailored based on the peptide’s half-life and the patient’s physiological response.
