DSIP vs HGH Fragment 176-191
A detailed comparison to help you understand the differences and choose the right peptide for your research goals.
DSIP
Delta Sleep-Inducing Peptide is a neuropeptide that promotes delta wave sleep, the deepest and most restorative phase of the sleep cycle.
Full details →HGH Fragment 176-191
HGH Fragment 176-191 is the fat-reducing portion of the growth hormone molecule. Unlike AOD-9604 (which has an additional tyrosine), this is the exact fragment of HGH responsible for lipolytic effects.

| Aspect | DSIP | HGH Fragment 176-191 |
|---|---|---|
| Mechanism | Modulates sleep-wake cycles by affecting sleep spindles and delta rhythms. May also influence stress hormones and have analgesic properties. | Mimics the lipolytic region of growth hormone, stimulating fat breakdown and inhibiting lipogenesis without affecting blood sugar or promoting growth. Works independently of GH receptors. |
| Typical Dosage | Typical dosing: 100-300mcg administered 30 minutes before sleep. Some protocols use it cyclically. | Typical dosing: 250-500mcg daily, often split into 2-3 doses. Usually administered on empty stomach, often with fasted cardio. |
| Administration | Subcutaneous or intramuscular injection before bedtime. Some users report better results with cyclical use. | Subcutaneous injection. Best results when used fasted and combined with exercise. Avoid eating for 30 minutes post-injection. |
| Side Effects | May cause grogginess upon waking, vivid dreams, or temporary headaches. | Generally well-tolerated. May cause injection site irritation, temporary lethargy, or headache. Does not affect blood glucose significantly. |
