Metatropin 100 IU

Somatropin (human growth hormone, HGH) is a synthetic version of the naturally occurring hormone produced by the pituitary gland. Metatropin 100 IU is a high-strength somatropin formulation intended for use in regulated clinical settings for the treatment of growth hormone deficiencies and related conditions. It is a prescription-only medication requiring qualified medical supervision.

• Growth and physical development

When the body produces insufficient HGH, somatropin therapy may be prescribed to restore normal physiological balance.
