Curr Pharm Des 24(18):19902001 Sikiric P, Hahm KB, Blagaic AB, Tvrdeic A, Pavlov KH, Petrovic A et al (2020) Stable gastric pentadecapeptide BPC 157, Roberts stomach cytoprotection/adaptive cytoprotection/organoprotection, and Selyes stress coping response: progress, achievements, and the future
Defined by the amino acid sequence Gly-Glu-Pro-Pro-Pro-Gly-Lys-Pro-Ala-Asp-Asp-Ala-Gly-Leu-Val, BPC-157 corresponds to a partial sequence of a larger protein (BPC) first isolated from human gastric juice
Recalculate all doses using the new concentration and label the vial clearly with '16.67mg/mL' to prevent future errors
Note that a 200 mg dose is 1.0 mL a relatively large subcutaneous volume
Vitamin B12 Medicine Interactions Chloramphenicol: bacteriostatic antibiotic can interfere with red blood cell response to supplemental Vit B12 Proton pump inhibitors: omeprazole and lansoprazole, etc., slow gastric acid release and may interfere with VIt B12 absorption from food H2-receptor antagonists: cimetidine, famotidine and ranitidine slow the release of hydrochloric acid into the stomach and interfere with Vitamin B12 absorption from food Metformin: might reduce absorption of Vitamin B12 due to altered intestinal motility, increased bacterial overgrowth, etc
