BPC‑157 oral dosing around my Achilles rehab – any timing tips?

Posted by grace606 in Healing & Recovery - 1 points, 0 comments.

Hey guys, honestly I’m kinda stuck with my Achilles rehab after a nasty tendinopathy flare‑up from a 5 km run. I’ve been doing the usual eccentric work and physio, but last month I added the oral BPC‑157 arginate (about 750 µg twice a day) because the injection stuff feels a bit much for me.

I noticed a subtle reduction in soreness after the first week, but the bigger question is timing – should I take it with the rehab session, right before, or maybe on an empty stomach? I’ve read the half‑life is around 4 hours and that oral bioavailability is lower, so I’m guessing spreading the doses might help keep levels steady. Also, any thoughts on stacking a low dose of PEA (300 mg) for the lingering joint ache, or would that just muddle the effects?

I’m not looking for medical advice, just a fellow’s experience or any papers you’ve seen that discuss optimal timing for oral BPC‑157 with physiotherapy. Thanks in advance, hope you’re all doing lekker. 🦵✨
