Product Details:

• Brand Name: M TROPIN
• Form: Lyophilized powder for injection
• Strength: 10 IU per vial
• Active Ingredient: Somatropin (recombinant human growth hormone)
• Administration Route: Subcutaneous injection
• Indications: Treatment of growth hormone deficiency, Turner syndrome, chronic kidney disease, and other conditions requiring growth hormone supplementation.

How It Works:

• Somatropin mimics the naturally occurring growth hormone produced by the pituitary gland. It stimulates growth and development of tissues by promoting bone growth, muscle development, and protein synthesis.
• It also helps with fat breakdown, carbohydrate metabolism, and overall tissue repair and regeneration in adults.

Who Should Use It?

• Children who suffer from growth hormone deficiency or are short in stature due to conditions like Turner syndrome.
• Adults with growth hormone deficiency, which may lead to low energy, decreased muscle mass, and increased body fat.
• Individuals with chronic kidney disease or other growth-related issues that may benefit from growth hormone supplementation.

Usage Instructions:

• Preparation: The powder must be reconstituted with bacteriostatic water (or saline) before injection.
• Dosage: The dosage will be determined by a healthcare provider based on the patient’s medical needs, weight, and the specific condition being treated. Typically, somatropin is injected daily or several times a week depending on the treatment plan.
• Injection Site: The injection is typically given subcutaneously in areas like the abdomen, thigh, or upper arm.
• Storage: Store unopened vials in the refrigerator (2–8°C). After reconstitution, the solution should be stored in the refrigerator and used within the time frame indicated by the manufacturer (usually 14–28 days).

Warnings & Precautions:

• Monitor Treatment: Regular blood tests and evaluations of growth, hormone levels, and blood sugar are important to monitor the effectiveness and safety of treatment.
• Side Effects: Possible side effects include joint pain, headaches, fluid retention, muscle pain, and carpal tunnel syndrome.
• Contraindications: Not recommended for individuals with active cancer, acute illnesses, or certain severe respiratory conditions. It should also not be used in cases of uncontrolled diabetes.
• Risk of Tumor Growth: As growth hormone stimulates cell division, it may exacerbate or promote tumor growth. Therefore, individuals should be evaluated for the presence of tumors before starting treatment.

• Before reconstitution: Store unopened vials in the refrigerator (2–8°C).
• After reconstitution: Keep the reconstituted solution in the refrigerator and use within 14–28 days (as specified by the manufacturer).
