What is Omnitrope?

Omnitrope contains the prescription medicine somatropin, a type of human growth hormone.

Omnitrope is used in children for the treatment of

• Growth failure due to low levels of endogenous (occurring naturally in the body) growth hormone (GH).
• Growth failure due to (PWS) Prader-Willi Syndrome (PWS).
• Growth failure in children born small for gestational age (SGA), whose growth does not catch up by age 2 years.
• Growth failure linked to Turner syndrome.
• Idiopathic short stature (ISS), also called non-growth hormone-deficient short stature.

Omnitrope is used to replace endogenous growth hormone in adults with growth hormone deficiency (GHD) who:

• Have growth hormone deficiency either on its own or with numerous hormone deficiencies (hypopituitarism), due to pituitary disease, hypothalamic disease, surgery, radiation treatment, or trauma.
• Were growth hormone deficient during childhood due to congenital, genetic, aquired, or idiopathic causes.

Omnitrope active ingredients

Somatropin, as well as naturally occurring growth hormone in the body, attaches to the growth hormone receptor in the cell membrane of specific cells. This causes signals to be sent into the cell, and for there to be a range of physical and chemical changes.

The main type of growth seen is linear growth (growth in length). This is seen through tissue and bone growth. Treatment with somatropin also results in an increase in both the quantity and size of muscle cells, the size of internal organs, an increase in cell protein production, a reduction in body fat and LDL’s (low-density lipoprotein) cholesterol, and an increase in minerals such as potassium and phosphorous.
