A growth-hormone-releasing peptide (ghrelin mimetic)

Research Use Only. Not FDA-approved; sold only as a research chemical. Many performance-adjacent peptides are also WADA-prohibited for tested athletes. Educational only — not medical advice.
What it is
GHRP-2 is a growth-hormone-releasing peptide that acts as a ghrelin-receptor agonist.
Proposed mechanism
Like other GHRPs it stimulates GH release via GHS-R; it can also modestly raise cortisol/prolactin/appetite — less selective than ipamorelin.1
State of the evidence
Early human PK exists; not an approved therapy.
Regulatory & status
RUO; WADA-prohibited (S2).
