Norditropin is one of several FDA-approved brands of HGH which
are proven as safe and effective for the therapy of growth
hormone deficiency (GHD) in both children and adults.
The medication has undergone extensive medical and scientific
research. The results have shown that subcutaneous injections
using Norditropin can restore normal HGH levels in GHD patients
and alleviate all symptoms related to the condition.
HGH therapy with Norditropin can help restore your muscle mass,
reduce abdominal fat, boost energy levels and libido, improve
sleep, and increase bone mineral density.
How does Norditropin work?
Norditropin works by restoring the HGH levels in your body to
physiological levels.
It is effective even if your pituitary gland may have partially
or completely lost its ability to produce HGH since Norditropin
delivers in your body exogenous growth hormone.
Norditropin injections contain exogenous HGH, which is produced
via a recombinant DNA technology and it has an identical
191-amino acid structure as the HGH naturally produced by the
human pituitary gland.
How long does Norditropin take to work?
Subcutaneous injections with Norditropin cause a peak in your
blood HGH levels 4 hours after administration. The half-life of
the medication is between 7-10 hours after administration.
You will notice the first benefits of HGH therapy with
Norditropin after at least 4 weeks of daily use. Your symptoms
will improve gradually for the first several months, starting
with your body composition and energy levels.
It may take up to 6 months for some benefits (such as increased
bone mass) to occur and several years until they reach a
maximum.
What is Norditropin used for?
Norditropin is FDA-approved for use in adults with growth
hormone deficiency (GHD). It can also be used to treat muscle
wasting due to AIDS.
Norditropin is also FDA-approved for use in children with growth
failure due to GHD and short stature associated with Noonan
syndrome, Turner syndrome, or other genetic and idiopathic
conditions.
How effective is Norditropin?
Norditropin contains recombinant HGH which can successfully
reverse all symptoms of growth hormone deficiency in both
children and adults.
Norditropin has been shown to effectively reduce body fat
including the visceral fat that accumulates around the waist and
internal organs. This type of fat is associated with an
increased risk of heart disease, cancer, and diabetes.
Furthermore, it lowers LDL (bad) cholesterol, increases lean
body mass, and improves markers of bone formation.
Will Norditropin get my vitality, energy, and body composition
back?
Norditropin helps restore HGH levels in patients with GHD, which
is associated with reducing symptoms of chronic fatigue, fat
gain, and muscle loss.
Thus, therapy with Norditropin can restore your vitality,
energy, and body composition back to their levels before
developing GHD.
Can females use Norditropin?
There are NO differences between the HGH produced in the male
and the female body. Thus, both men and women with GHD can be
treated successfully with recombinant HGH such as Norditropin.
Women may need slightly higher doses compared to men, due to the
antagonistic effects of estrogen.
How much Norditropin should I take?
Norditropin should be injected daily, and your dosage should be
carefully titrated by your physician. The standard dosage
according to the non-weight-based method is 0.2 mg per day
(equal to 0.6 IU/day), injected subcutaneously.
Then your dose will be increased by 0.1-0.2 mg every 4-8 weeks
until you reach an optimal dose. That will ensure maximum
effectiveness without any side effects. If you develop any
adverse reactions, your doctor will reevaluate and lower your
dose.
For the weight-based approach, the maximum starting dose of
Norditropin is 0.004 mg per kg of your body weight and can be
increased every 6 weeks up to 0.016 mg per kg of your body
weight.
Can you use Norditropin with other hormone medications?
You can take Norditropin with other hormonal medications but
doing so may require adjusting the dosage of one or both
medications.
For example, using Norditropin alongside glucocorticoid or oral
estrogen therapy may attenuate the benefits of HGH. Thus, the
Norditropin dosage should be increased accordingly.
Norditropin may increase insulin resistance, and patients with
diabetes may require higher doses of insulin and/or other
hypoglycemic medications to maintain normal blood sugar levels.
Other than that there are no known dangerous drug-drug
interactions with Norditropin.
What are the side effects of Norditropin?
Norditropin has side effects that are similar to other HGH
injections, including water retention and insulin resistance.
Insulin sensitivity usually returns back to normal after the 3rd
month of therapy.
The increased water retention can lead to adverse reactions such
as edemas, carpal tunnel syndrome, joint pain, and headache.
These side effects can be ameliorated by adjusting the dose of
Norditropin.
Local adverse reactions at the injection site are also possible.
Typical side-effects after subcutaneous injections include
redness, short-term bleeding, pain, discomfort, and swelling.
They resolve spontaneously without treatment.
Can you get a prescription for Norditropin online?
You can’t get your prescription for Norditropin online, since
your doctor can confirm your diagnosis only during an in-person
medical exam. The diagnosis requires a physical examination and
specific tests that can be performed only in medical settings.
Once you have a legal prescription for Norditropin, you can use
it to purchase the medication online from licensed clinics and
pharmacies.
How to take Norditropin?
All HGH products including Norditropin are available as
injections only. Norditropin needs to be injected subcutaneously
on a daily basis in order to be effective. It’s best to take the
medication before bed in order to mimic the natural HGH release.
How to inject Norditropin?
Norditropin should be injected subcutaneously. The best
injection sites are the abdominal area around the navel, lower
loins/upper buttocks, lower outer thighs, and upper outer arms.
You should rotate the injection sites every day to prevent a
localized loss of fat tissue (lipodystrophy).
What is the average dose of Norditropin for adults?
The average dose of Norditropin will vary a lot between
individuals. However, it should not exceed more than 0.016 mg
per kg of your body weight.
If you have missed a dose, you should continue taking your
medication according to your schedule. Do not attempt to
compensate for an injection you missed by increasing your dosage
or taking two on the same day.
If you have missed more than one dose, consult with your doctor.
Can you overdose on Norditropin?
Taking too much Norditropin at once can lead to hypoglycemia
(low blood sugar) followed by hyperglycemia (high blood sugar).
The symptoms include shaking, tremor, dizziness, cold sweats,
hunger, headache, drowsiness, weakness, fast heartbeat, nausea,
and vomiting.
If you have taken too much Norditropin, seek medical help
immediately.
How is Norditropin supplied?
Norditropin is supplied as prefilled and preloaded injector
devices called FlexPro Pens. Currently, that is the only form of
Norditropin produced by Novo Nordisk.
The device uses the NovoFine needles which are amongst the
tiniest on the market. In addition, there is an option to cover
the needle to reduce stress during an injection.
The cartridges can’t be refilled, so once the device is empty it
must be discarded.
How to store Norditropin injections safely?
You should store all Norditropin FlexPro Pens in a refrigerator
before their first use.
Once you have used your new Norditropin FlexPro Pen for the
first time, you can store it for 4 weeks in a refrigerator or
for 3 weeks at room temperature.
The optimal temperature during refrigerating is 2°C-8°C. Avoid
freezing or heating the medication as it will damage the
structure of HGH and render the medication ineffective.
How to travel with Norditropin?
You can travel with Norditropin across the US or to another
country as long as you carry a signed letter from your doctor
and the prescription label that will inform any security
personnel checking your luggage.
Make sure to calculate the exact number of doses you will need
and take enough of the medication. Keep in mind that Norditropin
FlexPro Pen can be stored at room temperature for no longer than
3 weeks.
If you are carrying unused Norditropin or you plan a longer
vacation, you should pack the medication in a portable
refrigerator or a cooler bag. Do not store it directly on ice
packs to avoid freezing and damaging the medication.
What is the difference between Norditropin and other brands?
Omnitrope, Norditropin, Genotropin, and Humatrope all contain
recombinant HGH that’s made of 191 amino acids. They are
identical to the structure of the naturally produced hormone by
the pituitary gland.
However, the different brands vary in their ease of use, storage
recommendations, and price.
While all of these brands are available as auto-injector
devices, Norditropin FlexPro Pen and Genotropin Miniquicks are
the only ones that do not require loading or replacing their
cartridges. This makes them easier to use than other injector
devices.
However, Genotropin Miniquicks provide only a single dose of HGH
per pen.
Therapy with Norditropin is more expensive compared to other
pens since once the device is empty it must be discarded.
Yet, the device has higher cost-effectiveness since a lower
percentage of the medication is lost during its use compared to
other methods for injection or even other pens.
Omnitrope and Humatrope are also available as a lyophilized
powder contained in vials. They must be reconstituted with
bacteriostatic or sterile water and then injected using regular
needles and syringes.
Vials have a lower cost compared to the auto-injector options
but more of the medication is lost when using a regular syringe.
