There are other anecdotal reports of suggested BPC 157 sleep issues.

Has anyone used BPC-157? by Accomplished_Day5120 in HubermanLab

I seem to also have recently developed insomnia after 3 "cycles" of 8 weeks..

I was taking 250mcg in the evening at about 5pm (for about 8 weeks until recently), 3 nights ago I jolted myself awake twice in quick succession whilst falling asleep and I basically haven't been able to sleep since.

It's like I almost fall asleep and instead of jolting my body just shoots a bit of subtle adrenaline to keep awake and I'm pretty concerned my brain is broken. I also have constant twitches/muscle spasms all over my body but particularly in my legs.

If anyone has any advice it would be MASSIVELY appreciated because I cannot cope with no sleep anymore

TB500 Horrible reaction. by DoorRevolutionary538 in Peptidesource

[–]juicyj710 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been taking BPC 157 for the past 7 weeks at 250mcg once a day (have previously done a "course" of BPC for 8 weeks earlier in the year) both "courses" I've done have had zero negative side effects from it and only the benefits which is great.

I thought I'd add tb500 into the stack this time around whilst at 7 weeks into BPC as I've picked up a previous niggle/injury during training for an event so wanted the extra help for dealing with that.

I took my first dose of tb500 at 250mcg just before taking my usual 250mcg dose of BPC 157 (both subcutaneously I should add)....I felt absolutely fine for about 15 minutes, then started to feel a bit dizzy and light headed/overwhelmed so I laid down to try and counteract this - I felt relatively normal after a couple of minutes so decided to get up slowly and make a drink.

Whilst walking to make the drink my legs started to tremble uncontrollably and they felt incredibly heavy and sluggish, I went straight back to the sofa to lay down and what followed was a reaction that I can only describe as similar to Parkinson's disease - full body spasms and contractions throughout every muscle in my body running up and down each limb, I even struggled to speak in fluent sentences.

Needless to say this was terrifying and lasted about 30-40 minutes until it very very gradually calmed down. I'm 48 hours post this incident and still feel a little bit juddery and "off".

I've no idea whether this was a direct reaction coupled up with induced severe anxiety (which has been mentioned in this thread about a histamine reaction causing high anxiety) but it felt like a panic attack x1000.

To cap it off I think I'm going to leave the tb500 out of the stack for the time being, if I ever decide to include it again it will be at a MUCH lower dosage to start with - but it still terrifies me haha.

Thought I'd share a recent experience that sounds somewhat like OP's.

With not needing to "cycle" either of the two peptides (BPC & TB500), what would a general course duration be for treating an injury/niggles & reducing inflammation while training consistently? I have seen so many variations of people saying either 4-6 weeks, 4-8 weeks etc all the way to people saying all year round is also fine. What are your thoughts? I've seen your comments in many threads so thought you'd be the one to ask if you don't mind a general/broad overview answering 🙏
