Growth hormone is administered subcutaneously, usually with a 29-gauge needle.

Tips for Safe Injection:
The dosage of this medication varies by age, weight, and the condition it is prescribed for. For adult patients with short bowel syndrome (SBS), the recommended dose of Zorbtive is approximately 0.1 mg/kg subcutaneously daily to a maximum of 8 mg daily. A special diet may also be required if taking it for SBSd.
If this medication is prescribed for HIV-related muscle-wasting or for the symptoms of adult growth hormone deficiency, your dose will be modified accordingly. Follow your doctor’s instructions carefully. The dosage is based on your age, weight, medical condition, and response to treatment.
It is recommended that all versions of HGH should be stored under refrigeration at 36°F to 46°F (2°C to 8°C). Somatropin or any brands of HGH injections should never be frozen, and this medication should be kept out of direct light.
Never take more than your prescribed dose of this medication. Though rare, it is possible to overdose on HGH. Overdose of Zorbtive® could lead to hypoglycemia and subsequently to hyperglycemia. Long-term over-dosage could result in signs and symptoms of gigantism and/or acromegaly consistent with the known effects of excess growth hormone.
As with any medication, in case of accidental overdose, seek emergency medical attention or call the Poison Help line at 1-800-222-1222. Keep Zorbtive® and all prescription medications out of the reach of children.
