Description
Sermorelin 5mg from Certified Peptides is 5mg of Sermorelin in a sealed glass vial. Sermorelin is a GHRH analog. It’s intended for lab research only.
Sermorelin at a glance
Sermorelin is GHRH(1-29), the first 29 amino acids of growth hormone releasing hormone. It’s the shortest fully active piece of GHRH.
It was FDA-approved as Geref for pediatric GH deficiency and later withdrawn for commercial reasons.
Sermorelin mechanism of action
Sermorelin is the shortest piece of GHRH that still works. It binds the GHRH receptor on the pituitary and triggers growth hormone release.
Because it works through the body’s own GH control, the pituitary’s feedback loops stay intact. The trade-off is a very short half-life.

What the research says about Sermorelin
Clinical work in the 1990s studied it in children with GH deficiency and in older adults.
Its half-life is only minutes.

How Sermorelin compares
Sermorelin 5mg is easier to place once you see it next to the compounds it’s usually compared with. Sermorelin is the unmodified first 29 amino acids of GHRH, broken down within minutes. The others:
- CJC-1295 No DAC is a stabilized GHRH(1-29) with a half-life of about 30 minutes, giving short, natural-looking pulses
- CJC-1295 DAC binds albumin and lasts about a week, giving a raised GH baseline instead of short pulses
- Tesamorelin is full-length GHRH with a fatty acid cap, the only GHRH analog currently approved as a drug in the US
These are all GHRH analogs, acting on the same receptor. The real difference is how long each one lasts, which decides whether you get short pulses or a raised baseline. See them all on our growth hormone peptides page.
Lab-tested Sermorelin 5mg
Sermorelin 5mg is made in the USA, and every batch goes to an independent U.S. laboratory before it’s sold. The lab confirms identity, measures the content and checks purity by HPLC. Our standard is 99% or higher.
Scroll through the photos at the top of the page and you’ll find the current batch’s certificate of analysis. We post the actual report, so you can check the figures yourself.
Batches are also screened for endotoxins, heavy metals and sterility. Those contaminant checks matter as much as purity for cell work, where a small amount of endotoxin can skew results.
Sermorelin 5mg reconstitution and concentration
The amount of liquid you add sets the concentration. For a vial holding 5mg:
- 1mL of bacteriostatic water gives 5mg/mL
- 2mL of bacteriostatic water gives 2.5mg/mL
- 3mL of bacteriostatic water gives 1.67mg/mL
Go with whichever number is easiest to work with in your protocol, and label the vial with the concentration and the date you mixed it. The vial itself holds 3mL, so that’s the upper limit.
Bacteriostatic water is the usual choice. Add it slowly so it runs down the side of the vial, then swirl or roll until everything dissolves. Shaking can shear peptide chains. Skip it.
Storing Sermorelin 5mg
Store sealed vials of Sermorelin 5mg in the freezer (-20°C) or the fridge (2 to 8°C), out of direct light. Mixed solution goes back in the fridge and should be used within about 28 days.
A 6 vial container keeps open and sealed vials upright and apart, which makes the fridge a lot easier to manage. For a bigger collection, the Big Everything Box holds vials and supplies in one latching case.
