GERD / acid reflux
Of the 25 unique stories with a clear outcome, 15 reported it helped (60%). 1 were inconclusive.
These are public YouTube testimonials, not clinical evidence. People who tried BPC-157 and got no result rarely post videos — read this as a sample of the positive end of the distribution.

My understanding is that peptides are best - and safest - when taken in pulsed fashion. Do you agree? If so, what is the commonly recommended frequency of pulsed use? Five days on, two days off? Three weeks on, one week off? As a case in point, I take BPC-157 (500 mcg capsule daily on an empty stomach) and it so noticeably helps my upper gastrointestinal symptoms (reflux/reflux esophagitis secondary to scleroderma, SIBO, and hiatal hernia) that if I take more than one day off, my symptoms noticeably worsen. I've been on it essentially continuously now for a few years, so I'm concerned about possible long-term adverse effects, including increased risk of cancer (I'm aware that the peptide acts by increasing IGF-1, which stimulates cell growth without differentiating between healthy cells and carcinogenic cells).
“it so noticeably helps my upper gastrointestinal symptoms”
I have been on it for two weeks. My acid reflux has gone, and I'm not as gassy, but I have tweaked my diet some. My joints don't seem as achy. My mind has been super clear as well. I am researching to see what other peptides to add to my health routine.

Then i started again 10 units a day again and the symptoms started coming back so i reduced the dose and now im on 5 units and stomach problems are gone and that will last me aprox 3 months .Any advice?
“stomach problems are gone”
My stomach sucks, in my sleep I always get reflux. I took 500mcg in the morning and night orally because i wanted it direct in the gut. First night I slept without any stomach issues. I’m going to run this dose for 90 days hoping it helps fix my stomach because the doctor just puts you on pills that just work for the moment.
“First night I slept without any stomach issues”
Oral bpc was completely useless for me, I took it for a month 1000 mcg twice a day with zero improvements of anything. Just two days after injectable bpc 157 my consistent heartburn and long term shoulder issues dramatically improved.
“consistent heartburn... dramatically improved”
Agreed, I had acid reflux, gurd last year. After a couple of months of oral of Bpc it was gone! I started with 250 mcg and went to 500 the second month. Now every 2 or 3 months I repeat the cycle. What dosage you start your patients on when using Bpc oral? Thanks
“I had acid reflux... After a couple of months of oral of Bpc it was gone!”
“within 24 to 48 hours”
I like your contenue! l have hesitation for the reason you mention! but figuring the good versus the hypothetical bad, I’m going to try it, I have gastric reflux and piriformis pain for year, also arthritis in my shoulder! can’t wait to try and be delivered from thoses harsh every day pain, thank you.
“gastric reflux and piriformis pain for year”
I know I'm this may be a long shot but I've been riddled with horrible GERD symptoms for the last decade. I've gone to specialist and one after another they don't find anything that can help me with the acid reflux, bloating, it's like I'm suffocating slowly and all they've given me is pantropozole for it.

“severe stomach irritation”
Where can you get the oral form you trust in Canada? I suffer from all kinds of gut issues and my doctors keep telling me nothings wrong with me that I just have gerd and ibs. Nothing they’ve given me has helped and I’ve heard nothing but positive results with bcp 157.

“i started having severe stomach pain and irritation”
Hi everyone. M20. My sleep problems began around the start of April. During that time I began to have more and more stressors which have only compounded since then. I also have a hiatial hernia which will be Important for later. Since the beginning of April I haven't been able to sleep for more than 4 to 5 hours. My body always just wakes me up. Sometimes ill be woken up sooner by reflux from the hernia but im deeply convinced that its a multifaceted issue. While I have made changes to minimize symptoms of silent reflux waking me up, I still cannot get a full night of rest and its beginning to effect my life. Im just hoping someone may have some sort of advice or solutions for this? Unfortunately I cant afford to go to a doctor at the moment. Any advice helps
“reflux from the hernia”
I got to the point with insomnia where I was up for days at a time. It was a living nightmare. After one day. Anything wrong with you like reflux (Had it for years) gets exponentially worse. After two days you just feel sick, muscle aches, head aches. Three days on you'll start having visual and auditory hallucinations that will only get worse. There's also a boatload of anxiety and stress to deal with as the more you can't sleep. The more it p***ea you off. The doctors are useless and will parm you off with promethazine if you're lucky or mitrazipine which works great. Sadly it's also an antidepressant that puts weight on most people who take it. I buy my sleeping tablets now and mix them with promethazine and valerian root. Insomnia runs in my family, sadly. I feel for anyone going through the worst of it. I never got past three days without passing out and the whole process starting again.

Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs-induced failure of lower esophageal and pyloric sphincter and counteraction of sphincters failure with stable gatric pentadecapeptide BPC 157 in rats.
This study found that BPC-157 counteracts the negative effects of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) on the lower esophageal and pyloric sphincters in rats. BPC-157 restored normal pressure values in these sphincters after NSAID-induced failure.
Class side effects: decreased pressure in the lower oesophageal and the pyloric sphincters after the administration of dopamine antagonists, neuroleptics, anti-emetics, L-NAME, pentadecapeptide BPC 157 and L-arginine.
The study found that BPC-157 counteracts the decrease in lower oesophageal and pyloric sphincter pressure caused by dopamine antagonists, neuroleptics, and other substances. BPC-157 also reversed the negative effects of these substances on NO levels and oxidative stress in the plasma, sphincters, and brain tissue.
Esophagogastric anastomosis in rats: Improved healing by BPC 157 and L-arginine, aggravated by L-NAME.
BPC-157 treatment improved healing of esophagogastric anastomosis in rats and counteracted the negative effects of L-NAME, while L-arginine also showed beneficial effects. The study suggests that BPC-157 therapy could correct innate NO-system disability in esophagogastric anastomoses.
BPC 157 therapy to detriment sphincters failure-esophagitis-pancreatitis in rat and acute pancreatitis patients low sphincters pressure.
The study found that BPC-157 therapy can counteract the detrimental effects of sphincter failure, esophagitis, and pancreatitis in rats, and that it may also be beneficial for patients with acute pancreatitis who have low sphincter pressure. The results suggest that BPC-157 could potentially cure esophagitis, sphincter failure, and acute pancreatitis.
