BPC‑157 oral protocol for stubborn shoulder tendonitis – what timing works?

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

I’ve been battling a nagging supraspinatus tendonitis for the last three months. Physiotherapy gives me good range, but the pain flares after every heavy set and I’m keen to speed up the repair. A few weeks ago I started an oral BPC‑157 arginate regimen (500 µg once in the morning, 500 µg post‑workout) after reading about its gut‑linked systemic effects. For me the first couple of days I felt a slight nausea, but it settled after a night of a heavier meal.

Around the workout I noticed the usual post‑session soreness was milder, and after two weeks the night‑time ache had dropped from a 7/10 to about a 3/10. I’m still doing rotator‑cuff strengthening and eccentric raises, but I’m curious if anyone has tried a similar split‑dose timing or perhaps a single daily dose on rest days. Also, does anybody cycle off after a month or keep it ongoing? Cheers 🌱.
