Tesamorelin 8mg/ml 5mls $427 Support Healthy Body Composition & Natural Growth Hormone Signaling Tesamorelin is a synthetic peptide that mimics your body's natural Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (GHRH). Rather than supplying growth hormone directly, it signals the pituitary gland to release your own natural growth hormone in a normal pulsatile pattern, leading to increased IGF-1 production. It is FDA-approved for reducing excess visceral abdominal fat in adults with HIV-associated lipodystrophy, and it is also being studied for its potential effects on body composition and metabolic health. Potential Benefits Supports healthy growth hormone production May help reduce stubborn visceral (deep abdominal) fat Supports healthy body composition May promote lean muscle maintenance when combined with proper nutrition and exercise May support exercise recovery May support healthy metabolism and energy levels How Does It Work? Tesamorelin works by binding to growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) receptors in the pituitary gland. This stimulates your body to release its own natural growth hormone, which then increases IGF-1 production. Together, these hormones help regulate fat metabolism, tissue repair, muscle maintenance, and other important metabolic functions. Unlike growth hormone itself, tesamorelin works with your body's natural feedback system to encourage physiologic growth hormone release. Who May Benefit? Tesamorelin may be considered for adults looking to support: Visceral fat reduction Healthy body composition Metabolic wellness Growth hormone support Recovery from exercise Who Should Avoid Tesamorelin? Tesamorelin may not be appropriate for everyone. It should generally be avoided by individuals who are: Pregnant or breastfeeding Under 18 years of age Living with active cancer or a history of growth hormone-sensitive tumors Experiencing uncontrolled diabetes or significant blood sugar abnormalities Allergic to tesamorelin or any of its ingredients Individuals with enlarged prostate, elevated PSA levels, or other hormone-sensitive conditions should discuss potential risks with their healthcare provider before use, as tesamorelin increases growth hormone and IGF-1 levels. Possible Side Effects Most people tolerate tesamorelin well, but possible side effects may include: Injection site irritation Swelling or fluid retention Joint or muscle discomfort Tingling or numbness of the hands Headache Increased blood sugar or changes in glucose tolerance Pharmacy Approval Required Tesamorelin requires review and approval by our pharmacy team.
