After neurological injuries (such as spinal cord injury and stroke), BPC 157 can reduce the death of neurons and promote the recovery of neurological function
Therefore, the consistent beneficial effects of BPC 157 therapy exclude poorly controlled NO increase (and therefore the consequent chain of negative events) (see below, Section 3.2) and poorly controlled effects on the increase of NOS gene expression (NOS-1, NOS-2, and NOS-3 gene expression)
A methylcobalamin injection has been shown to lessen inflammation
Also, patients should be warned about the danger of taking folic acid in place of vitamin B12, because the former may prevent anemia but allow progression of subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord
As a standalone therapy, the results are real but more gradual
The first step is to choose the right solvent, with sterile distilled water or a buffer solution being common options
