InStrips Restore Usage Instructions
Follow these steps when using InStrips Restore Peptide Blend oral strips for muscle recovery:
Acute Phase (Injury/Recovery Support):
- Take one strip in the morning and one strip before bed.
- Place the strip on top of your tongue, then press it gently against the roof of your mouth until fully dissolved.
Maintenance Phase (Ongoing Support):
- Once improvement is noticed, reduce to one strip daily before bed.
- Apply using the same method: press against the palate and allow complete dissolution.
General Notes:
- Allow the strip to dissolve completely; do not chew or swallow immediately.
- For best results, avoid eating or drinking for 5–10 minutes after use.

Why Formulation Science Matters
Formulation protects peptides from moisture, heat, and enzymatic breakdown, making oral strips effective for sustained muscle repair.
Understanding Degradation Pathways
Peptides degrade via hydrolysis, oxidation, and aggregation when exposed to unfavorable conditions.
Identifying these pathways guides protective formulation strategies.
Protective Excipients in Oral Strips
Excipients act as shields, preserving BPC‑157 and TB‑500 during manufacturing and storage.
Film-Forming Polymers
Polymers like hypromellose (HPMC) and pullulan create a stable strip matrix that dissolves predictably under the tongue.
Plasticizers, Binders & Sweeteners
Plasticizers such as glycerin enhance flexibility, while natural binders and sweeteners mask taste without harming peptide stability.
Stabilizing Additives
Antioxidants, pH modifiers, and protease inhibitors prevent oxidative and enzymatic damage to peptides.

Strip Matrix Design & Dose Uniformity
Precision in matrix composition and dosing ensures each strip delivers the intended BPC‑157 + TB‑500 amount.
Granulation & Coating Techniques
Wet and dry granulation produce uniform granules; spray-coating methods layer peptides evenly for consistent dose.
Analytical Verification
HPLC, UV spectroscopy, and dissolution testing confirm content uniformity and release profiles, underpinning reliable muscle recovery protocols.
Manufacturing Processes & Scale-Up
Translating lab formulations to large-scale production demands methods that preserve peptide activity.
Solvent Casting vs. Hot-Melt Extrusion
Solvent casting keeps temperatures low to avoid peptide denaturation, while hot-melt extrusion offers continuous throughput with careful thermal control.
In-Process Controls
Real-time monitoring of moisture, temperature, strip thickness, and weight ensures batch-to-batch consistency.
