Shreetropin Injection contains Somatropin, a recombinant form of human growth hormone (HGH) used to treat growth disorders in children and growth hormone deficiency in adults. It promotes normal skeletal and muscular development, enhances metabolism, and helps maintain healthy body composition.
Somatropin works by stimulating cell growth, regeneration, and protein synthesis, playing a crucial role in the development of bones, muscles, and tissues. It is also known to increase glucose and free fatty acid concentrations in the body, supporting overall energy and metabolic balance.
Uses of Shreetropin Injection
-
Treatment of growth hormone deficiency (GHD) in children and adults
-
Management of Turner syndrome and Prader–Willi syndrome
-
Promotes height gain in children with growth failure
-
Improves muscle mass and reduces body fat in adults with HGH deficiency
-
Supports tissue repair, metabolism, and recovery in deficient individuals
Mechanism of Action
Somatropin mimics natural human growth hormone, binding to receptors on various tissues to stimulate cell division and protein synthesis. It enhances bone growth in children and maintains lean muscle and bone density in adults. Additionally, it influences the metabolism of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats to maintain overall energy balance.
