Dosage experiences with TB-500 and BPC-157 after shoulder surgery

4 replies3 peopleApr 22, 2026☆ Follow
Summary

What dosages of TB-500 and BPC-157 work for recovery after PASTA shoulder surgery and similar procedures?

The original poster is two weeks post shoulder surgery with additional tears and PRP/stem cell injections, dosing 675 mcg daily of each peptide and asking if the BPC amount exceeds common recommendations. Other users report running BPC at 1 mg twice daily or 1 mg daily on 5-on-2-off schedules with no downsides and good recovery results, often stacking it with TB-500 at 1.5 mg three times weekly plus other compounds. Everyone in the thread views the original 675 mcg daily level as acceptable or even conservative.

What this discussion establishesStill open

Whether higher BPC amounts provide proportionally better results or if long-term daily use carries any undetected risks

Nothing here is advice.

Hi everyone. Roughly two weeks after shoulder surgery for a partial supraspinatus tendon avulsion plus a few smaller tears. Also received PRP and stem cell injections across the shoulder, one knee, and an ankle. Currently injecting 675 mcg of TB-500 and the same amount of BPC-157 each day. Suggested amounts online vary widely. BPC is often listed at 250-500 mcg daily, so does 675 mcg push too far or risk side effects? TB-500 guidance usually falls between 5 mg and 20 mg weekly; my schedule totals about 4.4 mg, which sits inside that band. Hoping for quantity and timing suggestions from anyone who has used these after operations.

Haven't tried BPC around surgery but have run it before. Used half a milligram twice daily for six weeks and saw clear improvement in rotator cuff issues and tennis elbow. Limited formal studies exist, yet overdosing or feeling negative effects seems unlikely.

Thanks. Glad it worked out for you. My own healing is progressing nicely and I'm ahead of my partner, who had the identical procedure, on the recovery timeline. Might increase the BPC after hearing that.

I once started at a full milligram twice a day by mistake. No noticeable negative effects. I keep extra on hand now so I can run cycles whenever it feels useful.

I inject 1 mg of BPC daily for twelve weeks using a five-days-on two-days-off pattern while training intensely. No problems so far and healing feels solid. I combine it with KPV at 500 mcg daily on the same schedule, TB-500 at 1.5 mg three times a week, and GHK-Cu at 1 mg on the five-two pattern, all with positive outcomes. Added thymosin alpha-1 recently and it has helped as well. Your current amount is probably fine. I also use tesamorelin in the evening before sleep to aid recovery.
