Wolverine Blend (BPC-157 + TB-500)

In plain English

The Wolverine blend puts the two most popular healing peptides, BPC-157 and TB-500, in a single vial. BPC-157 works more locally on tendons, ligaments and the gut, while TB-500 works throughout the body. Users combine them to cover both.

What it's used for

Tendon, ligament and muscle injuries
Joint recovery
Post-surgery recovery
General recovery from hard training

Benefits

In animal studies, each peptide sped healing of tendons, muscles and other tissues. The combination has not been studied as a blend, but users report faster, more complete recovery than with either alone.

How it works

In simple terms: two repair signals that work in different ways.

BPC-157 promotes new blood vessels, growth factor signaling and tendon cell repair. TB-500 helps repair cells move into injured tissue and reduces inflammation. See the individual entries for details.

Development history

2010s: Users begin stacking the two peptides.
2020s: Pre-mixed blends become common, nicknamed “Wolverine” after the fast-healing comic character.

Typical protocols

Educational information only, not medical advice. The information below describes how this peptide has been used in research, on prescription labels or by users. It is not a recommendation. Talk to a qualified healthcare professional before starting, stopping or changing anything.

These ranges are what users commonly report. Blends usually contain equal amounts, such as 5 mg of each in a 10 mg vial.

Phase	Total blend dose	Frequency	Length
Healing	500 mcg–1 mg (250–500 mcg of each)	Daily	4–6 weeks

Cycling

Commonly run for 4–6 weeks, then a break.

Administration options

Subcutaneous injection, often near the injured area.

Reconstitution and dosing calculator

Common vials are 10 mg (5 mg + 5 mg) or 20 mg (10 mg + 10 mg), mixed with 2–3 mL of bacteriostatic water. For a blend, enter the total mg in the vial and the total dose you want. The calculator then gives the units for the whole mix.

1Peptide in the vial

The total amount printed on the vial label.

Other amount mg

2Bacteriostatic water added

More water makes each dose a bigger, easier-to-measure draw. It does not change how much peptide is in the vial.

Other amount mL

3Dose per injection

Use the dose from your protocol or your clinician. 1 mg = 1,000 mcg.

Other dose

4Your syringe

All three are U-100 insulin syringes: 100 units = 1 mL. Smaller barrels make small doses easier to read.

This tool does arithmetic only. It does not choose a dose or confirm that any substance is right for you. Double-check every result against your syringe and your clinician’s instructions.

Side effects and safety

Users report it is generally well tolerated: injection-site redness, head rush or tiredness occasionally.
People with active cancer are usually advised to avoid healing peptides that promote new blood vessel growth.
Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
TB-500 is prohibited in competitive sport (WADA).

Common stacks

GHK-Cu: added to make the GLOW blend.

Storage

Powder: refrigerate or freeze. After mixing: refrigerate at 2–8 °C and use within about 3–4 weeks.

Compare with

GLOW: adds GHK-Cu for skin and tissue.
KLOW: adds GHK-Cu and KPV.

Frequently asked questions

Is a blend better than separate vials?

Blends are more convenient. Separate vials let you adjust each peptide’s dose.
