The detail

What you should know.

Description

IGF-1 LR3 (Long R3 IGF-1) is a modified, long-acting form of insulin-like growth factor 1 — the main molecule through which growth hormone drives cell growth.

It is potent, evidence is largely preclinical, and it is supplied strictly for research use.

How it works: IGF-1 LR3 activates IGF-1 receptors to promote cell growth and division, with an extended half-life because the LR3 modification reduces binding to carrier proteins. It is studied for muscle growth and hyperplasia.

Researched to support: growth signalling, long acting, targeted research.

Quality: Lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder, supplied for research use only. Our manufacturers carry out their own batch testing; we do not independently verify those results or issue certificates of analysis, so we back every order with our purity guarantee instead.

How to use

Reconstitute: Use bacteriostatic water. Add it slowly down the inside wall of the vial and let it dissolve for 10 to 15 minutes. Do not shake.

Administer: Subcutaneous, usually with an insulin syringe.

Dose example: A 5 mg vial reconstituted with 1 ml gives 0.5 mg per 0.1 ml (10 units on a U-100 insulin syringe).

Store: Keep the powder cool and dry. Once reconstituted, store at 2 to 8 °C and use within about 28 days.

These are research materials, not medical advice. Talk to your doctor before use.

Research dosing protocols

In research use IGF-1 LR3 is handled as a subcutaneous injection, with care around blood sugar:

  • Potent — hypoglycaemia is the key handling concern.
  • Reconstituted with bacteriostatic water.
  • No approved human dosing exists.

Describes dosing used in clinical research, provided as reference only — not a usage recommendation or medical advice. This is an investigational research compound.

Clinical studies

Cell-growth research: Laboratory studies examined IGF-1 and its analogs for promoting cell growth, division and muscle hyperplasia; controlled human trials of LR3 are lacking.

Extended activity: The LR3 modification is studied for a longer active window than native IGF-1.

Status: Not an approved medicine; supplied strictly as a research peptide.

Provided as a scientific reference based on published clinical results — not medical advice, a usage recommendation, or a claim about the research product supplied by Novapep.

Side effects & safety

Frequently described

  • Low blood sugar (hypoglycaemia)
  • Injection-site reactions

Less frequently described

  • Headache
  • Localized tissue growth at the site

Precautions / risks

  • Hypoglycaemia risk — a key concern
  • Tumour/cancer caution (growth signalling)
  • Research use only

Digestive effects are the most common and usually ease with gradual titration. Scientific reference only, not usage instructions.

FAQs
What are peptides?

Peptides are short chains of amino acids (2 to 50) that act as signalling molecules. Ours are supplied for laboratory research.

What's included in my order?

The vial contains lyophilised powder only. You also need bacteriostatic water, a sterile syringe, and a needle. We stock bacteriostatic water under Supplies.

How do I reconstitute the peptide?

Add bacteriostatic water slowly down the inside wall of the vial, then let it dissolve for 10 to 15 minutes. Do not shake.

How should I store it?

Keep the powder cool and dry. After reconstitution, store at 2 to 8 °C and use within about 28 days.

How are peptides administered?

Most are administered subcutaneously with an insulin syringe, for slow, steady absorption. A few formulations use other routes.

When do effects appear?

It varies by peptide and protocol. Some are researched over a few days, others over several weeks.

Do I need to see a doctor?

A prescription is not required, but we recommend speaking with your doctor, especially if you have a medical condition or take other medication.

Are your peptides tested?

Our manufacturers carry out their own batch testing, but we do not test independently and do not hold certificates of analysis — so we make no purity claim of our own. We back it with a guarantee instead: you are welcome to have a vial independently tested — contact us first so we agree the laboratory. If the result doesn’t match the label, we reimburse the cost of the test and either replace the product or refund it.
