what to know about sermorelin.

What it is

Sermorelin is a short version of the hormone that signals your body to release its own growth hormone. The brand-name product left the US market years ago, so today it comes only from compounding pharmacies. It is not FDA-approved for anti-aging.

Who it may help

Adults interested in growth hormone support whose provider thinks it is a reasonable option. It is not used during pregnancy or in people with active cancer.

What to expect

Your provider reviews your history and labs first. Sermorelin is usually a nightly shot under the skin. You check in regularly so your provider can track how you feel and adjust the plan.

how sermorelin works at home.

1. Goals and history

Your provider asks what you hope sermorelin will do, and reviews your sleep, energy, weight and any history of cancer, diabetes or pituitary problems.

2. Baseline labs

Blood can be drawn at home to check IGF-1, a marker of growth hormone activity, along with blood sugar and other labs your provider recommends.

3. Learn the injection

Sermorelin is usually a small shot under the skin, often at bedtime. Your provider shows you how to mix the vial if needed, measure the dose and inject safely.

4. Recheck and decide

Follow-up visits look at how you feel, side effects and repeat labs. If it is not helping after a fair trial, your provider will tell you and stop it.

Side effects

Redness, pain or swelling at the shot site, flushing, headache, dizziness and trouble sleeping are the most reported. They are usually mild.

Who should avoid it

Sermorelin is generally avoided in pregnancy, in people with active cancer and in people with untreated thyroid or pituitary problems. Extra care is needed with diabetes, since growth hormone can raise blood sugar.

Quality and sourcing

The brand-name product left the U.S. market in 2008, so sermorelin today comes from licensed compounding pharmacies. Never use products sold online as “research only,” which are not made for people.

Prescriptions in New York

New York requires prescriptions to be sent to the pharmacy electronically. Your provider sends yours to a licensed pharmacy and explains how your vials will reach you.

Storing vials at home

Mixed sermorelin vials are usually kept in the refrigerator. In a small Brooklyn kitchen, keep them in the main body of the fridge rather than the door or the back wall, where items can freeze.

Evening doses and city schedules

Because sermorelin is often taken at bedtime, a late home visit can be a good time for your first dose and injection lesson, so you learn in the same setting you will use.
