Improves Mood and Behavior

Studies show that BPC-157 may help improve mood and behavior:
1. In rats, BPC-157 administration reduces immobility time in a forced swimming test (used for evaluation of antidepressant drugs), which is indicative of a potent antidepressant effect. [33]
2. In rats, BPC-157 administration produces an anti-anxiety effect. [34]
3. In rats chronically exposed to amphetamine, BPC-157 decreases behavioral disturbances caused by the drug. [35]
4. In rats with serotonin syndrome, a condition characterized by high body temperature, agitation, tremor, increased reflexes, sweating, dilated pupils, and digestive problems, BPC-157 administration counteracts behavioral disturbances and other symptoms. [36]
5. In mice chronically exposed to diazepam, BPC-157 significantly decreases drug tolerance, physical dependence and withdrawal symptoms. [37]
