Descripción
IGF-1 LR3 (Long Arginine 3 IGF-1) by Pharmatek is a high-potency anabolic peptide designed to bypass the metabolic limitations of endogenous IGF-1. Through the substitution of Glutamic Acid with Arginine at position 3 and the inclusion of a 13-amino-acid N-terminal extension, it exhibits markedly reduced affinity for IGF binding proteins (IGFBPs), prolonging its systemic half-life to 20-24 hours.
This structural modification allows the peptide to stay biologically active, driving satellite cell proliferation and muscle fiber hyperplasia (creation of new muscle cells) rather than mere hypertrophy. Additionally, it enhances glucose and amino acid uptake, optimizing post-workout recovery and muscle density.
- General Information
- Brand Name: IGF-1 LR3 Pharmatek.
- Active Ingredient: Long Arginine 3 Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1 LR3).
- Concentration: 1 mg (1000 mcg) per vial.
- Presentation: High-purity lyophilized vial.
- Route of Administration: Subcutaneous (S.C.) or Intramuscular (I.M.) injection.
- Composition
Each lyophilized vial contains:
- Lyophilized IGF-1 LR3: 1 mg (1000 mcg).
- Excipients: Mannitol and pharmaceutical-grade pH buffering agent.
- Pharmacological Properties & Benefits
- Muscle Hyperplasia Promotion: Triggers satellite cell activation and the synthesis of new, permanent muscle fibers.
- Extended Active Half-Life: Maintains systemic activity for 20-24 hours due to binding-protein evasion.
- Superior Nutrient Partitioning: Dramatically increases muscle cell uptake of glucose and amino acids.
- Connective Tissue Repair: Accelerates the recovery of tendons, ligaments, and lean tissue following intense physical exertion.
- Reconstitution & Storage
- Reconstitution: Reconstitute gently with bacteriostatic water or appropriate acidic diluent along the vial wall. Do not shake.
- Unopened Storage: Store refrigerated between 2°C and 8°C (36°F to 46°F) away from light.
- Reconstituted Storage: Keep refrigerated at 2°C to 8°C. Best used within 30 days of reconstitution.
- Warnings & Safety
- Professional Use: Intended for research or supervised professional conditioning protocols.
- Contraindications: Contraindicated in individuals with active neoplasms, severe metabolic disorders, or known peptide sensitivities.
- Medical Monitoring: Blood glucose levels should be monitored regularly due to insulin-like action.
- Side Effects: May cause mild hypoglycemia if carbohydrate intake is insufficient, temporary fluid retention, or lethargy.
- Child Safety: Keep out of reach of children.
