Detailed Information About Norditropin

Norditropin is a synthetic form of human growth hormone (HGH) prescribed to treat growth hormone deficiency in children and adults. It is the brand name of the drug somatropin made by Novo Nordisk. Somatropin is a synthetic form of HGH designed to treat children and adults with growth hormone decline. It is made from recombinant DNA, so somatropin treatment provides an exact biological duplicate of the HGH that is normally produced by your pituitary gland.

Norditropin is only given via a subcutaneous injection, as are all forms of HGH therapy. Like all brands of HGH injections, you cannot, under any circumstances, legally purchase this medication without a doctor’s prescription.

Your prescribed dose of this version of HGH will vary based on your age, weight, and the condition it is being prescribed for.

What is Norditropin Prescribed For?

Norditropin is indicated for the treatment of growth failure, growth hormone deficiency, or HIV-related weight loss or wasting. It may also be prescribed to increase height in children with certain disorders such as Noonan syndrome, Turner syndrome, idiopathic short stature, children born small for gestational age (SGA) with no catch-up growth by age 2 to 4 years, or with Prader-Willi syndrome.

It is also prescribed for adults with “age-related” or “adult-onset” growth hormone deficiency.

Norditropin HGH: Benefits

Norditropin is FDA-approved for the treatment of growth hormone deficiency in men, women, and children. This drug is commonly prescribed for children who fail to reach growth milestones. However, it is also indicated for use in adults who are suffering from age-related HGH decline.
