CJC-1295 (no DAC): units to draw, daily timing and a 30-minute half-life
CJC-1295 (no DAC), also called Modified GRF (1-29), is a GHRH analog without the Drug Affinity Complex; it produces a sharp GH pulse and is commonly paired with a GHRP like ipamorelin. The Peppy catalog lists it as a reconstituted vial dosed in mcg, typically daily, half-life about 30 minutes. Peppy does the units and the schedule.

Tracking CJC-1295 (no DAC): what matters
The first thing to get right is which CJC-1295 you have. The vial with DAC is a weekly, mg-dosed peptide; the one without DAC, sold as Mod GRF (1-29), is daily and dosed in mcg. They are separate entries in Peppy's catalog, and picking the wrong one gives you the wrong unit and the wrong schedule. Once that is settled, a CJC-1295 no DAC reconstitution calculator is the standard vial math: 2 mg plus 1 mL of water is 2,000 mcg per mL, so 100 mcg is 5 units and 200 mcg is 10 units. Peppy stores the mix on the protocol and shows the units on every shot.
Many people do not run it alone. It is usually drawn into the same syringe as a GHRP such as ipamorelin. If both come from one blend vial, use the CJC-1295 / Ipamorelin entry. If they are two vials, log two protocols; Peppy rotates injection sites across both, and the stack tracker guide explains how the Today tab groups them. Two active protocols requires Pro.
A 2 mg vial at 100 mcg a shot is 20 shots. Inventory (Pro) counts them down and warns before you run out.
Schedule and cycles
The Peppy catalog lists CJC-1295 (no DAC) as daily with a dose ladder of 100 and 200 mcg (catalog listing, not a recommendation). Tracked patterns include one nightly shot, two or three shots a day, and 5-on/2-off weeks. Daily and twice-daily schedules are free; cycles (Pro) auto-skip the off days so the calendar stays clean. The pattern is your prescriber's decision, and Peppy simply keeps it on the calendar.
With a listed half-life of about 30 minutes, the "active in your system" curve is a brief spike that is gone before the next shot. It is an estimate from the catalog number, not a measurement. Compare it with the multi-day curve on the DAC version to see why the two are scheduled so differently.
How to do this in Peppy
- Open Protocols, tap +, search "CJC" and choose CJC-1295 (no DAC) (aliases: Mod GRF 1-29).
- Enter the mcg dose. In the inline Calculator, type the vial mg and water mL; Peppy shows the units to draw.
- Set a time and pick daily or twice daily. Add Cycles (Pro) if you take weekends off.
- Add your vials in Inventory (Pro).
- Log from the Today tab: tap the suggested site on the body map, confirm the units, log. If you take it with a GHRP, log the second protocol from the same list.
- Turn on Settings > Reminders (Pro) so both shots fire at the same time.

How many units is 100 mcg of CJC-1295 no DAC?
Example: a 2 mg vial mixed with 1 mL of bacteriostatic water is 2,000 mcg per mL, so 100 mcg is 0.05 mL, or 5 units on a U-100 syringe; 200 mcg is 10 units. Add 2 mL instead and 100 mcg is 10 units. Run your vial through Peppy's calculator and verify with your prescriber.
How often is CJC-1295 no DAC typically scheduled?
The Peppy catalog lists it as daily. Because of its short action, people often log it alongside a GHRP in the same shot, once nightly or a few times a day. Peppy supports daily and twice-daily schedules, and cycles (Pro). Your prescriber sets the pattern.
What is the half-life of CJC-1295 without DAC?
The Peppy catalog lists about 30 minutes. Native GRF (1-29) is cleared in minutes, and the modified sequence extends that only modestly compared with the DAC version, whose half-life is measured in days. The "active in your system" chart uses the catalog estimate.
What is the difference between CJC-1295 with DAC and without DAC?
Same GHRH analog, different half-life. Without DAC the catalog lists ~30 minutes and a daily schedule; with DAC it lists ~168 hours and a weekly schedule. They are separate catalog entries in Peppy; see CJC-1295 (with DAC).
Where do you inject CJC-1295?
Subcutaneous sites like the abdomen and thighs are the ones most people log. Peppy's body map rotates sites across every protocol you run. See the rotation guide.
How many units is 100 mcg of CJC-1295 (no DAC)?
It depends on how the vial was mixed. Example: a 5 mg vial plus 2 mL of bacteriostatic water is 2.5 mg/mL, so 100 mcg is 0.04 mL, or 4 units on a U-100 insulin syringe. Change the water and the units change. Use the calculator above with your own vial, and verify with your prescriber.
How long does CJC-1295 (no DAC) stay in your system?
The Peppy catalog lists a half-life of about 30 minutes for CJC-1295 (no DAC). After roughly five half-lives, about 2.5 hours, most of a single dose has cleared. That is an estimate from the half-life, not a measurement, and individual clearance varies.
Can I track CJC-1295 (no DAC) in Peppy?
Yes. CJC-1295 (no DAC) is one of 123 compounds built into Peppy, with its form, unit and typical frequency prefilled. Add it as a protocol, set your schedule, and Peppy handles the countdown, the log and the reminders (Pro).
Where should I inject CJC-1295 (no DAC)?
Follow your prescriber's instructions. For subcutaneous shots the GLP-1 labels list the abdomen, thigh and upper arm and say to rotate. Peppy's body map has 13 sites, suggests the next one, and shows when each was last used. Read the site rotation guide.
