How much does a CJC-1295 and Ipamorelin stack cost?

The cost of research-grade CJC-1295 and ipamorelin in 2026 depends on vial quantity, purity grade, documentation, and supplier, so no single figure holds across the market. This page covers the purchasing variables for laboratory buyers; check current pricing for each compound on the Simple Peptide catalog.

Why this matters

A low price on a research peptide often means missing documentation. For a laboratory, an unverified input costs more than any saving: a failed assay, a repeated run, a wasted lot.

The question "how much does CJC-1295 and ipamorelin cost" has no useful single answer. The useful question is what a verified lot of each compound costs, and what the price includes. This page treats the two compounds as separate catalog items for in-vitro and preclinical research. It does not cover combined-use protocols, and it gives no guidance on use in people or animals.

How much does CJC-1295 and ipamorelin cost?

In 2026, each compound is quoted on its own, per vial, and the total is the sum of two line items. The price you pay is set by quantity, purity grade, and documentation, not by the compound name alone.

Simple Peptide does not hard-code prices in editorial content because they change by lot and quantity. The current figure for each item sits on its product page in the catalog.

The two compounds differ in ways that affect manufacturing cost:

A longer sequence generally costs more to produce at the same purity, because each added coupling step compounds yield loss. That is established peptide chemistry, not a quote.

What drives the price of research peptides

Six factors move the per-vial cost of either compound:

• Quantity per vial. Larger vials usually lower the cost per milligram while raising the cost per vial.
• Verified purity. Higher HPLC purity requires more purification passes and costs more to produce.
• Lot-specific COA. A certificate tied to the exact lot you receive, not a generic sheet, reflects real testing spend.
• Third-party testing. Independent verification adds cost and removes the supplier from grading its own work.
• Manufacturing origin. U.S.-manufactured material carries different cost structure than unverified offshore supply.
• Account type. Bulk and custom synthesis accounts are quoted differently from catalog orders.

Cost per vial versus cost per verified milligram

Compare suppliers on cost per verified milligram. A cheaper vial with an unverified fill amount or no lot COA is not cheaper once you account for what you can actually confirm.

When you evaluate a quote, check four things:

1. The stated peptide content per vial.
2. The HPLC purity on the COA for that specific lot.
3. Whether the testing lab is a named third party.
4. Whether the COA lot number matches the vial label.

If any of the four is missing, the price is incomplete. For supplier-to-supplier comparisons, read Simple Peptide vs Core Peptides for the documentation criteria that matter.

Costs beyond the peptide itself

The vial is not the full laboratory cost. Budget for the supplies that surround it:

• Reconstitution materials. Bacteriostatic water, sterile vials, and filters. See how much a peptide reconstitution kit costs.
• Storage. Lyophilized material and reconstituted solutions have different stability requirements, covered in how long reconstituted peptides last in the fridge.
• Cold-chain handling. Shipping and receiving conditions affect whether a lot arrives in specification.
• Analytical verification. Labs that re-test incoming lots add their own assay cost.

These costs apply per compound, so a project using two compounds carries them twice unless materials are shared across the workflow.

Why the price of CJC-1295 and ipamorelin varies

Two suppliers can list the same compound at very different prices for legitimate reasons:

• Different purity thresholds, for example a research grade versus a higher-purity analytical grade.
• Different testing depth: in-house versus independent third-party HPLC and mass spectrometry.
• Different fill accuracy and lyophilization quality.
• Different synthesis scale, which changes unit economics.
• Different compliance overhead: research-use-only labeling, documentation, and customer verification.

A price far below the market range for a given purity is a flag. Ask for the lot COA before ordering, not after.

Is ordering both compounds from one supplier cheaper?

Not automatically. Each compound is a separate line item with its own lot, COA, and purity result. Consolidating orders with one supplier can reduce shipping handling and simplify documentation, but it does not change the compound pricing. Confirm each lot's COA individually.

Does a higher price mean higher purity?

No. Price signals cost of production and testing, not a guarantee. Purity is verified only by the lot-specific COA and third-party HPLC data. Read the certificate; do not infer from the price.

What should a research buyer request before ordering?

Request the lot COA, the testing laboratory name, the HPLC purity figure, and the stated content per vial. A supplier that serves research accounts will provide these without friction.

FAQ

One last thing

The most expensive line in a research budget is the repeated experiment. Paying for a verified lot with a matching COA in 2026 costs less than rerunning an assay on an input you cannot confirm. Store vials per the documentation and keep a lab-grade storage workflow so a good lot stays in specification.
