Genotropin, also known as somatropin injection, is a medication commonly prescribed to treat growth hormone deficiency in both children and adults. Somatropin is a synthetic form of human growth hormone, which plays a crucial role in stimulating growth, development, and metabolism. This injectable medication provides a supplemental source of growth hormone to individuals who have insufficient levels produced by the pituitary gland. Genotropin injections are typically administered subcutaneously, often on a daily basis, following the prescribed dosage regimen.
Somatropin injection is used to replace growth hormone (a natural hormone produced by your body) in adults and children with growth hormone deficiency. Somatropin injection is also used to increase growth in children with certain conditions that affect normal growth and development.
