Peptide Therapy with BPC 157/TB500

Home » Services » BPC-157

What Is BPC-157/TB500?

As a leading orthopedic and wellness center in Los Angeles, Dr. Gelber and LA Ortho and Wellness are able to provide peptide therapy in Toluca Lake, North Hollywood, Burbank, and Studio City.

BPC 157 is synthetic protein that was originally isolated from human gastric juice. It is a 15-amino acid sequence that has been investigated for its potential therapeutic properties. Currently it is being explored as an injury recovery tool and to treat chronic joint conditions. It has shown promise in animal studies for promoting tissue healing, including in joints, by accelerating the repair of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, reducing inflammation, and potentially aiding in pain relief.

TB500 is often combined with BPC-157. It is a synthetic version of Thymosin Beta-4, a naturally occurring peptide in the human body. It plays an important role in cellular migration, inflammation control, and muscle regeneration. Together they promote injury recovery and healing.

Potential Benefits:

Anti-inflammatory effects:
BPC 157/TB500 has been shown to have anti-inflammatory properties in animal models
Injury Recovery: BPC 157/TB500 has shown promising results in animal studies for accelerating injury recovery, particularly in soft tissues like tendons and ligaments
Wound healing:
Studies in animals have shown that BPC 157/TB500 can promote wound healing by stimulating cell growth and collagen production.
Gastrointestinal protection:
BPC 157 may help protect the stomach lining from damage caused by ulcers and other conditions.
Neuroprotection:
Some research suggests that BPC 157 may protect nerve cells from damage.

Is It Safe?

BPC 157/TB500 is not currently approved by the FDA or other regulatory agencies for medical use. It is considered an experimental compound and therefore the decision is made between you and your doctor whether this is the right treatment for you. A full discussion of risks and benefits is appropriate. There is no one size fits all approach when it comes to peptides.

How Is It Administered?

Many people who use BPC 157 use it orally or as an intramuscular injection. Both forms are effective and available at LA Ortho and Wellness. However, a skilled orthopedic surgeon or other sports medicine specialist such as Dr. Gelber can also place it near a tendon or in the joint under ultrasound guidance.

TB500 is only available as a injection. It can be combined with BPC 157 for daily intramuscular injection (with tiny insulin needles) or combined with BPC 157 in a tendon or joint injection with Dr. Gelber.

Other Peptide Therapies

Besides BPC 157/TB 500, additional peptide therapy is available with Dr. Gelber. Each peptide protocol is tailored to your needs and discussion. Some examples include:

CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin – synthetic peptides used together to stimulate the body’s natural release of human growth hormone (HGH) sought for benefits related to muscle growth, fat loss, and anti-aging.
Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide (DSIP) Nasal Spray – a synthetic peptide formulation studied for its potential involvement in sleep regulation and neuroendocrine function.
Selank Nasal Spray – a synthetic peptide analog of tuftsin, developed and studied for its potential influence on central nervous system pathways including learning, pain, and mood disorders
GHK-CU – a naturally occurring copper peptide found in the human body. It plays a significant role in wound healing, tissue repair, reducing inflammation, and reversing signs of aging. May even help ACL ligaments heal. Available in a skin patch delivery with BPC 157/TB 500.
