Instructions for Use:
1. Composition: Each package contains 10 vials, with each vial containing 10 IU (3.33mg) of somatropin.
2. Dosage: The dosage varies depending on the patient’s age, weight, and the condition being treated. Consult with a healthcare professional for personalized dosage recommendations.
3. Administration: Reconstitute the somatropin powder with the provided solvent (usually bacteriostatic water) before use. Administer the solution subcutaneously, rotating injection sites to minimize the risk of local irritation or tissue atrophy.
4. Preparation: Follow the instructions provided for reconstitution and ensure the solution is clear and free from particles before injecting. Use a new syringe and needle for each injection.
5. Monitoring: Regular monitoring of growth progress, IGF-1 levels, and overall health is essential during treatment. Your healthcare provider may adjust the dosage based on treatment response and any side effects.
6. Potential Side Effects: Possible side effects include injection site reactions, fluid retention, joint pain, and headaches. In rare cases, more severe side effects such as increased intracranial pressure or glucose intolerance may occur. Report any unusual or severe symptoms to your healthcare provider.
7. Special Considerations: Use with caution in patients with diabetes or those at risk for glucose metabolism issues. Inform your healthcare provider of all medications, supplements, and health conditions to avoid potential interactions.
8. Storage: Store the vials in a refrigerator at 2-8°C (36-46°F) before reconstitution. Do not freeze. After reconstitution, store the solution in the refrigerator and use it within the time frame specified by the manufacturer.
Consultation Reminder: Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting growth hormone therapy to ensure safe and appropriate use, especially in managing growth hormone deficiencies or related conditions.
