Tesamorelin (10mg)

Tesamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog that stimulates the pituitary gland to increase the natural production of growth hormone (GH). It is FDA-approved for the treatment of HIV-associated lipodystrophy, a condition characterized by excessive abdominal fat accumulation.

Key Benefits:

• Reduces visceral fat (especially in HIV patients)

• Enhances natural GH production

• Supports muscle growth and metabolism

• May improve cognitive function and cardiovascular health

• Potential anti-aging effects

How It Works:

Tesamorelin mimics the action of natural GHRH by binding to GHRH receptors in the pituitary gland, leading to increased GH and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) levels. Unlike direct GH administration, Tesamorelin preserves the body’s natural GH secretion patterns.

Dosage & Administration:

• Recommended dose: 2 mg per day via subcutaneous injection

• Usually administered in the abdomen

• Treatment duration varies based on clinical or research applications

Potential Side Effects:

• Mild injection site reactions (redness, swelling)

• Increased appetite

• Water retention

• Joint pain

• Possible insulin resistance with prolonged use

Tesamorelin is primarily prescribed for medical use but is also studied for its potential in anti-aging and body composition improvements. Always consult a medical professional before use.
