BPC-157 / TB-500 Blend: dosing, reconstitution and evidence
The two best-known recovery peptides in one vial. BPC-157 works locally on tendon, ligament and gut tissue; TB-500 works systemically on cell migration. They are run together so often that vendors simply pre-mixed them.
Also known as Wolverine blend, Wolverine stack, BPC/TB, BPC-157 TB-500
BPC-157 / TB-500 Blend quick start
- Route
- SubQ
- Typical dose
- 500–1,000 mcg total blend per dose — usually an even split, but confirm on your label
- Frequency
- Once daily, or 2x weekly for loading
- Half-life
- BPC-157 is short and dosed daily; TB-500 is long and often dosed twice weekly. The blend forces both onto one schedule.
- Cycle
- 4–8 weeks, then off.
- Vial sizes sold
- 20mg or 10mg

What people actually run
The single most-run blend in the recovery space, and the reason most people buy a blend at all. Usually a 1:1 split, most often 10 mg of each in a 20 mg vial.
What to expect
Most people tolerate BPC-157 / TB-500 Blend well. Here is what is worth knowing going in, so nothing catches you by surprise.
Reconstitution guide
BPC-157 / TB-500 Blend ships as a lyophilised powder and gets mixed with bacteriostatic water before use. How much water you add sets the concentration, which sets how many syringe units make up each dose. One unit on a U-100 syringe is 0.01 mL — the tables below do the arithmetic for the vial sizes you are most likely to be holding.
20mg vial most common
| Water added | Concentration | 500mcg | 1000mcg |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2mL (common) | 10 mg/mL | 0.05 mL 5 units | 0.10 mL 10 units |
| 3mL | 6.67 mg/mL | 0.07 mL 7.5 units | 0.15 mL 15 units |
10mg vial
| Water added | Concentration | 500mcg | 1000mcg |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2mL (common) | 5 mg/mL | 0.10 mL 10 units | 0.20 mL 20 units |
| 3mL | 3.33 mg/mL | 0.15 mL 15 units | 0.30 mL 30 units |
Standard steps
- Inspect the vialConfirm the label and that the powder cake is intact. Do not use a cracked or compromised vial.
- Let it reach room temperatureSitting out for a few minutes reduces condensation inside the vial when the seal is broken.
- Disinfect both stoppersWipe the compound vial and the bacteriostatic water vial with a fresh alcohol swab and let them air-dry.
- Draw the bacteriostatic waterUse a sterile syringe to draw the volume you have chosen from the reconstitution table.
- Add the water down the vial wallInject slowly so it runs down the inside wall rather than spraying directly onto the powder. This limits foaming.
- Dissolve gentlySwirl or roll the vial between your hands until the cake dissolves. Never shake — agitation damages peptide bonds. The solution should end up clear.
- Label and refrigerateWrite the reconstitution date and concentration on the vial. Store at 2–8°C. Do not freeze.
