Hexarelin: a research overview

Hexarelin is a synthetic peptide in the growth-hormone-releasing-peptide family. This overview covers its structure and handling, with no therapeutic or dosing claims.

What it is

Hexarelin is a synthetic hexapeptide ghrelin-receptor agonist, closely related to GHRP-6 and part of the same secretagogue branch.

Why it is studied

Hexarelin appears in preclinical and in-vitro studies of the GH-secretagogue pathway. The findings belong to those studies; this page makes no claim about human effects.
