Tesamorelin
GHRH analog, FDA-approved as Egrifta.
What it does
What Tesamorelin is and why doctors prescribe it.
Tesamorelin is a stabilized GHRH analog. The manufactured supply is FDA-approved as Egrifta for HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Compounded variants are prescribed in select clinical contexts where the FDA-approved product isn't appropriate or available, on a doctor's prescription.
How it works
Mechanism in plain English.
Like sermorelin, tesamorelin binds GHRH receptors on pituitary somatotrophs to stimulate endogenous GH release. A trans-3-hexenoic acid modification at the N-terminus extends half-life compared to native GHRH, improving practical pharmacokinetics.
How long it's been studied
Research history.
Tesamorelin received FDA approval in 2010 (as Egrifta) for HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Trial data established safety and efficacy in that indication. Compounded tesamorelin is dispensed under 503A in select contexts.
Dosing
Clinical context for the prescribing doctor.
Doctor-prescribed. Tesamorelin is typically dosed at 1–2 mg subcutaneously daily for indicated uses. Your doctor selects dose based on clinical context.
This page is informational, not a dispensing aid. Tesamorelin is dispensed only on a patient-specific prescription written by a licensed doctor for an identified patient. Compounded drugs are not FDA-approved and should not be evaluated using branded-drug trial data. Availability varies by state and prescribed medication.
