What is GENOTROPIN®?
GENOTROPIN® (somatropin) is a recombinant human growth hormone essential for bone and muscle growth. It is specifically formulated to treat individuals who lack natural growth hormone, including both children and adults, addressing various conditions from genetic disorders to hormone deficiency due to medical conditions.
Available Form
GENOTROPIN® is supplied in a 12 mg two-chamber cartridge system, designed for use with the GENOTROPIN Pen. This system is easy to use and ensures accurate dosing and effective delivery of the medication.
The product comes as a sterile lyophilized powder that is reconstituted with the diluent provided, ready for subcutaneous injection.
How does GENOTROPIN® work?
GENOTROPIN® mimics natural human growth hormone, promoting growth and affecting metabolism, which is critical in developing and maintaining bone density and muscle mass. It is particularly effective in pediatric patients for promoting linear growth and in adults for enhancing muscle mass and reducing fat.
Clinical Benefits Include:
- In Children: Stimulates growth in children with growth hormone deficiencies, Turner syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, and other conditions affecting growth.
- In Adults: Improves metabolic functions, leading to decreased body fat and increased muscle mass, which contributes to overall better physical health.
Usage and Administration
- GENOTROPIN® should be administered as directed by a healthcare provider.
- The 12 mg two-chamber cartridge allows for precise dosing and is color-coded with a purple tip to match the GENOTROPIN Pen 12.
- Care should be taken to reconstitute the hormone as instructed, without shaking the mixture to avoid deactivation.
