Genotropin – Human Growth Hormone for Children & Adults with Growth Hormone Deficiency
Genotropin is a prescription medication containing Somatropin, a synthetic human growth hormone (HGH) used to treat growth hormone deficiency (GHD) in both children and adults. It plays a vital role in promoting height, increasing muscle mass, reducing body fat, and supporting metabolic balance.

- Prader-Willi Syndrome to improve growth and body composition.
- Adults with confirmed growth hormone deficiency, whether persistent from childhood or newly developed.
