Omnitrope is a Great Option for Men or Women with HGH Deficiency

Are you feeling overwhelmed by all of the different options available to treat human growth hormone (HGH) deficiency on the market these days?

Now that HGH deficiency is becoming more accepted by doctors as a real medical/hormonal issue, multiple pharmaceutical companies have developed their own version of human growth hormone injections.

Here, we will discuss one of these products to give you general information on what you can expect. The product is Omnitrope (somatropin), developed by Novartis/Sandoz and approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

What is Somatropin?

Somatropin is another term for synthetic human growth hormone, synthesized in the laboratory using recombinant DNA. This means that it was formulated artificially using DNA from different organisms, such as bacteria.

Specifically, somatropin (or Omnitrope) is synthesized by a strain of Escherichia coli whose DNA was altered by adding the human growth hormone synthesis gene. Biotechnology is genuinely unique and advancing at incredible rates!

The somatropin is an exact copy of an actual HGH molecule (produced by the human pituitary gland) – a polypeptide hormone comprised of 191 amino acids.

This is the reason why real HGH injections can be so expensive and why sermorelin acetate may be the better choice for many people.

The molecule itself is incredibly complex, large, and delicate, making it more difficult to synthesize than many other biochemicals on the market today.

How to Use Omnitrope

Like many other brands of HGH out there, Omnitrope is available in two different forms for subcutaneous injection. If you are using the Omnitrope cartridge, it will arrive in your hands as a clear, colorless, sterile solution.

With no cartridge but using a standard injection needle, Omnitrope will arrive as a lyophilized powder that needs to be reconstituted in bacteriostatic water before injection.

If you are new to injections and/or are uncomfortable with injecting yourself with a needle, the cartridge is the most accessible and convenient option for you.

Each cartridge is inserted into either an Omnitrope Pen 5 or Omnitrope Pen 10 delivery system, depending on your dosage. Don’t worry – your doctor will explain all of the steps of using the pen, and an instruction booklet is also included.

Using lyophilized powder is a bit more complicated, but once the HGH powder is mixed with the bacteriostatic water, swirl the vial gently and DO NOT SHAKE. This could damage (or denature) the delicate hormone protein.

What is Omnitrope Indicated For?

Not only is Omnitrope used for adult men and women who are suffering from HGH deficiency, but the Omnitrope pens are also used for children who are suffering from issues such as idiopathic short stature, Turner syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome and growth failure (growth hormone deficiency).

As we’ve said before, more doctors recognize that HGH deficiency in adults is an increasing issue today. To be diagnosed with HGH deficiency, you must seek a licensed doctor or endocrinologist, such as the ones at this clinic.

Blood tests will be performed to verify the deficiency at your convenience, and HGH injections can even be delivered straight to your home! No need to go to a pharmacy every few weeks or so to pick up your prescription.

We highly recommend getting your hormone levels tested every year or so, including HGH, testosterone, estrogen, DHEA, etc. Hormone imbalance is rising, and it's best to catch it early before severe adverse symptoms begin. Get started today with a simple blood test – call us now!
