GENOTROPIN (somatropin) is a man-made form of human growth hormone used to treat growth failure and hormone deficiencies in children and adults. Its primary benefits include promoting linear growth in children and improving body composition and metabolism in adults.

Benefits in Children
In children, the main benefit of GENOTROPIN is stimulating linear growth and promoting normal development in those who are unable to produce sufficient natural growth hormone or have specific medical conditions. It is approved for use in children with: 
  • Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD): Promotes the growth of long bones, helping children with short stature due to GHD achieve a more normal adult height.
  • Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS): Helps improve linear growth and body composition by reducing excessive fat mass and increasing muscle mass.
  • Turner Syndrome: Addresses short stature associated with this genetic disorder in girls.
  • Chronic Kidney Disease: Helps children with this condition grow at a more normal rate.
  • Small for Gestational Age (SGA): Benefits children born small or light for their gestational age who do not show catch-up growth by age 2 years.
  • Idiopathic Short Stature (ISS): Can help children with unexplained short stature who are unlikely to reach normal adult height. 
Benefits in Adults
For adults with growth hormone deficiency (either adult-onset or childhood-onset), Acquista Genotropin in Italia serves as a replacement therapy to correct metabolic and functional abnormalities. Benefits may include: 
  • Improved Body Composition: A consistent benefit is the increase in lean body mass (muscle) and a reduction in fat mass.
  • Metabolic Effects: Treatment can lead to beneficial changes in lipid metabolism (cholesterol and related fats).
  • Increased Muscle Mass and Strength: Helps build and maintain muscle tissue.
  • Stronger Bones: Can help strengthen bones and improve bone mineral density.
  • Enhanced Exercise Ability: May boost the ability to exercise more. 
A physician will determine if the potential benefits of GENOTROPIN outweigh any potential risks or side effects based on an individual's specific medical condition and history.
