Trying AHK-Cu serum with oral BPC-157 for Achilles – timing thoughts?

Posted by grinder265 in Protocols & Stacks - 2 points, 0 comments.

Been dealing with a nagging Achilles strain from my last ultra and have been running oral BPC-157 at 250mcg twice a day for about three weeks. It seems to help with soreness but I’m wondering if adding a topical AHK-Cu serum could give extra local support for collagen and follicle health around the tendon. 5-2 mg/mL applied once or twice daily.

I’m thinking of mixing a 1mg/mL solution and dabbing it on the area after my morning physio session, then doing the oral dose at night. Does anyone have experience stacking a copper peptide topically with oral BPC-157? I’m curious about timing, should I keep them separated by a few hours or is it fine to layer them?

Also any notes on skin irritation or staining I should watch for? Just looking for real‑world feedback before I tweak the protocol. Ngl I’m a bit cautious about overdoing the copper side. Thanks for any insight.
