Humatrope is a biosynthetic human growth hormone. It is used in children who do not produce enough natural growth hormone, in girls who have Turner syndrome, in children with chronic renal insufficiency, and children born small for gestational age. Humatrope helps these children to grow at a natural rate.
Humatrope is also used in adults who do not produce enough natural growth hormone. In adults, Humatrope helps to decrease body fat, in growth hormone deficient adults only.
Humatrope is a man-made form of human growth hormone. It was first approved in 1987 to treat children who are growing slowly because they do not make enough growth hormone on their own.
Humatrope is available in 6 mg, 12 mg, and 24 mg cartridges for use in a HumatroPen injection device. Humatrope is also available in vials for use with a syringe and needle.
How does Humatrope work?
Humatrope is a man-made form of growth hormone. Growth hormone is essential for growth—made by the pituitary gland (located at the base of the brain), then released into the bloodstream, where it travels to the body’s tissues. Here it stimulates production of another hormone important for growth, called insulin-like growth factor 1, or IGF-1. Growth hormone works to stimulate growth, in large part due to its effect in producing IGF-1.
