WHAT GENOTROPIN IS
USED FOR
GENOTROPIN is a growth
hormone.
GENOTROPIN is used to treat:
•
Short stature caused by the lack
of growth hormone.
GENOTROPIN promotes the
growth of the long bones (for
example, upper legs) in children
with reduced height due to lower
than normal levels of growth
hormone.
•
Reduced growth in girls with
Turner syndrome.
Turner syndrome is a genetic
disorder found in females. The
condition may cause short stature
and ovaries to not fully develop.
•
Children with Prader-Willi
syndrome.
Prader-Willi syndrome is a
genetic disorder that may cause
short stature, low muscle tone and
a constant feeling of hunger.
GENOTROPIN helps to improve
growth and body composition. It
also helps to reduce excessive fat
and improve muscle mass.
Diet restrictions may still be
necessary during treatment with
GENOTROPIN.
•
Children with kidney disease, to
help them grow at a normal rate.
•
Adults who do not produce
enough natural growth hormone.
However, your doctor may prescribe
GENOTROPIN for another purpose.
Ask your doctor if you have any
questions about why GENOTROPIN
has been prescribed for you.
