Recombinant Somatropin 12mg Injection
Composition:
Each vial contains Recombinant Somatropin 12mg (recombinant human growth hormone) as the active ingredient.
Indications:
Recombinant Somatropin 12mg Injection is used for the treatment of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) in both children and adults. It is commonly prescribed to stimulate growth in children with inadequate growth hormone production and to manage conditions such as Turner's syndrome, chronic kidney disease, and Prader-Willi syndrome. In adults, it may be used to treat growth hormone deficiency, improve muscle mass, and reduce body fat.
Mechanism of Action:
Somatropin is a synthetic form of human growth hormone (HGH), which is naturally produced by the pituitary gland. It promotes growth and development by stimulating the production of proteins, increasing cell growth, and promoting the breakdown of fats. Somatropin also enhances bone density and encourages the growth of cartilage, leading to the development of muscle and overall body growth.
Dosage:
The dosage of Recombinant Somatropin 12mg Injection depends on the individual's age, condition being treated, and response to therapy. For children with growth hormone deficiency, the typical dosage ranges from 0.025 mg to 0.035 mg per kg of body weight per day, administered via subcutaneous injection. In adults, dosages usually start at 0.1 mg to 0.2 mg per day, with adjustments made based on therapeutic needs and clinical response.
Packaging:
Recombinant Somatropin 12mg is available in a multi-dose vial, providing a 12mg dosage per vial.
