PEPTIDE THERAPY • WILMINGTON, NC
Personalized Peptide Therapy
Peptide therapy at Recharged begins with a clinical conversation. Your provider reviews your health history, medications, goals, and relevant testing to determine whether a peptide option may be appropriate for you.
START WITH THE BASICS
What Are Peptides?
Peptides are short chains of amino acids that can act as signaling molecules in the body. Depending on the specific peptide, the clinical context, and your individual goals, peptide therapy may be discussed as part of a provider-guided plan focused on recovery, body composition, metabolic health, cognition, skin and hair, sleep, or sexual wellness.
You do not need to choose a peptide before your consultation. Start with the goal you want to discuss, and your provider can help determine what may or may not make sense.

Explore Peptides by Goal.
01 • RECOVERY & PERFORMANCE
Muscle Growth, Recovery & Inflammation Support
Options in this group may be discussed for goals related to training, recovery, tissue support, body composition, sleep, energy, and performance.
CJC-1295 + Ipamorelin +
This combination is used in some individualized programs to influence natural growth-hormone signaling. Recharged may discuss it in the context of recovery, body composition, performance, sleep, and energy goals.
Sermorelin +
Sermorelin is a growth-hormone releasing hormone analog that stimulates pituitary growth-hormone release. It may be considered for sleep, recovery, body-composition, and vitality goals when clinically appropriate.
IGF-1 LR3 +
IGF-1 LR3 is a long-acting IGF-1 analog discussed in some performance-focused settings for muscle-repair and recovery goals. It requires careful clinical review and is not appropriate for everyone.
V.I.P. +
Vasoactive Intestinal Peptide is involved in vascular, immune, and inflammatory signaling. In select protocols it may be discussed for broader recovery, circulation, and resilience goals.
BPC-157 +
BPC-157 is an investigational peptide discussed in research and compounded-care settings for tissue-recovery goals. Human safety and effectiveness data are limited, so availability and appropriateness require provider review.
BPC-157 + TB-500 Wolverine +
This combination is used in some recovery-focused protocols. Because these are investigational peptides, your provider reviews your goals, risks, medication history, and current availability before making any recommendation.
MOTS-C +
MOTS-C is a mitochondrial-derived peptide studied for roles in cellular-energy and metabolic signaling. It may be discussed for exercise, metabolic, or energy-related goals based on provider evaluation.
02 • METABOLIC & GUT HEALTH
Metabolic Health, Gut Health & Body Composition
These options may be discussed when body composition, visceral-fat goals, metabolism, digestive comfort, or gut-support goals are part of the conversation.
AOD-9604 +
AOD-9604 is a modified peptide fragment studied for metabolic and body-composition pathways. Safety information for compounded AOD-9604 is limited, so use and availability require careful provider review.
Tesamorelin / Ipamorelin +
Tesamorelin stimulates growth-hormone release and has an FDA-approved indication that is specific to reducing excess abdominal fat in adults with HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Other uses are off-label. Recharged may discuss individualized options after clinical evaluation.
KPV +
KPV is a short peptide fragment explored for inflammatory signaling and gut-support goals. It may be discussed when digestive comfort, gut-lining support, or inflammation-related symptoms are part of the clinical conversation.
03 • BRAIN, MOOD & FOCUS
Brain Health, Focus, Mood & Stress Support
These research-focused options may be discussed for cognitive performance, calm, focus, mental fatigue, and stress-resilience goals.
Selank +
Selank is a synthetic peptide studied for anxiolytic and neurocognitive effects. It may be discussed for calm, focus, and stress-resilience goals. Evidence and regulatory status vary by formulation.
Semax +
Semax is a synthetic peptide studied for neuroprotective and cognitive effects. It may be discussed for focus, memory, learning, and mental-performance goals.
Selank + Semax The Einstein +
This combination is used in some wellness protocols to pair cognitive-performance goals with stress-resilience goals. Provider evaluation is required to determine whether either component is appropriate.
04 • LONGEVITY, SKIN & IMMUNE
Longevity, Skin Health & Immune Support
These options may be discussed when skin, hair, healthy-aging, tissue-repair, or immune-resilience goals are part of your individualized plan.
Thymosin Alpha 1 +
Thymosin Alpha 1 is an immune-modulating peptide studied for T-cell and immune signaling. It may be discussed when immune resilience and recovery are relevant goals, with provider review of your health history and medications.
GHK-Cu +
GHK-Cu is a naturally occurring copper-binding peptide studied for skin, hair, collagen, and tissue-repair pathways. It may be discussed in cosmetic and recovery-focused plans.
BPC-157 + TB-500 + GHK-Cu The Glow +
This blend combines tissue-recovery goals with skin and hair-focused goals. Because components may be compounded or investigational, availability and suitability are provider-dependent.
05 • LIBIDO, SLEEP & RESTORATION
Performance, Libido & Restorative Sleep
These options may be discussed when sexual wellness, sleep quality, recovery, and restoration are part of your goals.
PT-141 +
PT-141, also known as bremelanotide, acts on melanocortin pathways and may be discussed for certain sexual-wellness goals. The appropriate formulation, indication, and patient profile require provider evaluation.
DSIP +
Delta sleep-inducing peptide is a research peptide explored for sleep and stress-related goals. Evidence remains limited and any use should be individualized through provider evaluation.
