GLOW — BPC-157 + TB-500 + GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper)
Repair and skin quality in one vial
Quick answer
A 70 mg vial with 3 mL of water makes 23.3 mg/mL. A 700 mcg dose is 3 units. That is a small mark, so measure slowly. Five days a week for 8 to 12 weeks.
- Mix it
- 70 mg vial + 3 mL water
- Draw
- About 3 units on a U-100 syringe
- How often
- Once a day, 5 days a week
- How it is given
- Under the skin.
- How long it lasts
- Mixed, because it holds three peptides.
- Store it
- Refrigerate and keep out of light. Use within about 4 weeks.
What it is
Full name: GLOW — BPC-157 + TB-500 + GHK-Cu (Glycyl-L-Histidyl-L-Lysine Copper). Most people write it as GLOW.
GLOW combines the two repair peptides with the copper skin peptide. It is a 70 mg vial, so the mixing numbers are different from a standard 10 mg vial.
What it is studied for
- Skin tone and firmness
- Tissue repair
- Hair and nails
- Post-injury recovery
These are things researchers study. They are not promised results.
Dosing at a glance
These are the amounts used most often in research. Always start at the low end.
- Vial size
- 70 mg (10 / 10 / 50)
- Dose range
- About 350 mcg to 700 mcg of the blend
- How often
- Once a day, 5 days a week
- Cycle length
- 8 to 12 weeks
- Mix with
- Bacteriostatic water (also called BAC water or reconstitution solution).
- Storage
- Refrigerate and keep out of light. Use within about 4 weeks.
Week by week
A common way researchers step the dose up. Stay at each step until it feels easy.
| When | Dose | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Weeks 1-2 | 350 mcg daily | Half dose while you adjust. |
| Weeks 3-10 | 700 mcg, 5 days a week | Main phase, weekends off. |
| Weeks 11-12 | Taper or stop | Then a 4 week break. |
This is a reference schedule, not a prescription. Start at the lowest step.
Mixing it
A common setup for GLOW is a 70 mg vial with 3 mL of bacteriostatic water.
That makes 23.33 mg per mL. A 700 mcg dose is about 3 units on a standard insulin syringe.
Bacteriostatic water is all you need here. Acetic acid is only for powders that will not dissolve. See the mixing guide.

- Blue tint at the injection site
- Injection site itching
Stop and speak to a clinician if anything feels wrong. See the safety page.
Common questions
Why is the vial so big?
It holds three peptides, mostly GHK-Cu. Big vial, small draw.
Three units seems tiny. Is that right?
Yes. The mix is strong, so the volume is small. Use more water if the mark is hard to read.
Do I still need separate BPC-157?
Usually not during a GLOW run.
