Tesamorelin

Growth Hormone-Releasing Hormone (1-44) amide

Tesamorelin is an FDA-approved synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog specifically indicated for the treatment of excess abdominal fat in HIV-infected patients with lipodystrophy. It works by stimulating the pituitary gland to release growth hormone, leading to targeted reduction in visceral adipose tissue through enhanced lipolysis and fat metabolism.
