How do you administer peptide therapy?
Peptide therapy is a growing field and an increasingly popular form of alternative health care. Peptides are naturally occurring proteins that can be used to support, enhance and restore the body’s own natural healing processes. When properly administered, peptides have been noted to help with muscle growth and repair, reduce inflammation, aid in weight loss, improve cognition and memory, balance hormones and more.
Peptide therapy administration typically relies on a few different methods: subcutaneous (SC) injection, intramuscular (IM) injection or transdermal administration. SC injections involve using a very small needle that is inserted into the fatty tissue just beneath the skin, making them relatively painless. This method is generally used for smaller doses as it won't penetrate deeper tissue layers. IM injections are done directly into the muscle tissue where the medicated liquid will be absorbed quickly into the bloodstream via capillaries within muscle fibers. This method of administering peptides works well for larger doses due to its quick absorption rate.
Transdermal administration involves using a topical ointment or cream containing peptides that are directly absorbed through the skin into your system. This type of administration makes it much easier to take and rarely causes any side effects or irritation when applied topically. Additionally, transdermal administration has been shown to have higher absorption rates than other methods such as oral ingestion or inhalation since there is less interference from digestion or metabolization of peptides in this route of delivery.
No matter what form of delivery you choose when administering peptide therapy it’s important to make sure that they’re prescribed by an experienced doctor who understands how they work and how they interact with other medications you might be taking as well as any underlying conditions you may have. Additionally it’s always best to follow your physician’s instructions when self-administering any type of medication whether it's injected through your skin or taken orally for best results.
