What IGF-1 LR3 Is Studied For
IGF-1 LR3 is a modified version of insulin-like growth factor 1, engineered to stay active in the body longer than the natural form. IGF-1 is one of the main signals through which growth hormone drives tissue growth and repair. Research and clinical interest focus on muscle growth, recovery, and metabolic support. It is a research peptide, prescription-only.

What Is IGF-1 LR3?
IGF-1 LR3 is a modified form of insulin-like growth factor 1, a protein the body makes naturally that helps drive growth and tissue repair. The LR3 changes let it stay active in the body considerably longer than the natural version, which is why it is studied for muscle growth and recovery. It is a research peptide, available at Cienega by prescription only after an individual evaluation.

-
What is IGF-1 LR3?
It is a modified form of insulin-like growth factor 1, a protein the body makes naturally. The modifications reduce how much it binds to the carrier proteins that normally regulate IGF-1, which makes it last longer in the body than the natural form.
-
Is IGF-1 LR3 FDA-approved?
No. IGF-1 LR3 is not FDA-approved for any use. The modified form was originally developed as a laboratory reagent for cell culture work rather than as a medicine.
-
What does the human research show?
There is essentially none. IGF-1 LR3 has not been studied in human clinical trials. What is known about it comes from laboratory work. That is an important thing to understand before considering it, and your provider will discuss it with you directly.
-
Is IGF-1 LR3 banned in sport?
Yes. The World Anti-Doping Agency prohibits IGF-1 and its analogs. If you compete in a tested sport, this would cause you to fail a drug test.
-
Can I get IGF-1 LR3 at Cienega Medical?
IGF-1 LR3 is available by prescription following a consultation with a nurse practitioner, who will review your health history and whether it is appropriate for you.

-
Is IGF-1 LR3 allowed in competition?
IGF-1 LR3 is prohibited in tested sport by the World Anti-Doping Agency, so it is not appropriate if you compete under WADA rules. Our medical team reviews this with you at your consult.
