This is dependant upon a couple of factors that can play into a dosing schedule for HGH. Most importantly is to interfere as little as possible to our own natural pulsatile secretions of HGH which occur throughout each day. The main pulses have been documented as typically being secreted within 30 minutes to two hours of sleep onset and the body does a lot with that GH release in regards to tissue repair, recovery and overall healing during your sleep. This would then tell us that dosing at night and especially before bed time is not ideal unless of course your GH deficient and then it would make sense to inject at night time allowing the body to use the GH much as it was intended. Studies with GH deficient children have shown that night time injections show greatest benefits for them in terms of growth.
My advice generally is taking in one dose upon waking if your taking in the range of 1-3iu's. You could conceivably split this dose into two if you wish and take one in the morning and one early afternoon and an advantage here is the early morning and afternoon is when we see our higher levels of cortisol and GH is effective at reducing cortisol levels.
The disadvantage to splitting your dose is that exogenous supplmentation can negatively feedback on your natural secretions because after an injection of HGH studies show that suppression sets in about 4 hours after an inejction and can take up to 24 hours to see a return to normal. This is why if your taking larger doses then I don't think timing really matters all that much because your advised to split the dose then anyway to keep blood levels more stable and you have already basically shut down any endoegenous secretions.
