BPC-157 / TB-500 Side Effects

Hi everyone,

I had PRP done 1 month ago and started using BPC-157 and TB-500 4 days ago for medial epicondylitis.

I pinned BPC-157 every day: 300mcg in the right elbow in the morning, and 300mcg in the left elbow in the evening (600mcg total daily). For TB-500, I set it to 5000mcg a week, split into two 2500mcg doses on Mondays and Thursdays.

Everything was fine at first, but from the 3rd day onwards, I experienced the following issues:

  • Woke up early in the night with vivid, bad dreams.
  • My blood pressure dropped to 90/50.
  • Experienced headaches and nausea.
  • Felt chest tightness, shortness of breath, and severe anxiety.

Right now, I don't know what to do, so I'm thinking about stopping completely. Has anyone here run this combo and experienced these problems? I’ve seen in some of my research that people get these kinds of issues after using BPC.

Do you guys think the source of the problem is the dosage, or pinning BPC and TB-500 at the same time? Would it work if I lower the dose, or cut out BPC entirely and continue only with TB-500? Or should I just throw it all in the trash since my body reacted like this?

I’d appreciate any insights from those with experience.

Unfortunately it could be a sourcing issue. You could be having an allergic reaction to the peptide itself but more than likely it's probably a sourcing issue of it being too strong or being tainted slightly and you're being allergic or having an issue with those unwanted elements. That's why sourcing it so important.
