Profile Overview

GHRP-2 (pralmorelin) is a synthetic hexapeptide GHS-R1a agonist and the most potent traditional GH-releasing peptide. It is the only GH secretagogue with regulatory approval anywhere in the world -- approved in Japan since 2004 as a diagnostic agent for GH deficiency. Unlike the more selective ipamorelin, GHRP-2 also elevates cortisol and prolactin at therapeutic doses, a distinguishing pharmacological liability. A negative 48-week intranasal growth trial in 126 GH-deficient children found no benefit on height SD score.
