About Somatropin Mammalian Derived
Somatropin Mammalian Derived belongs to the class of medications known as hormones used to treat growth failure caused by various disorders or deficiencies, including growth hormone deficiency (GHD), Prader-Willi syndrome, Small for Gestational Age, Turner syndrome, and Idiopathic Short Stature.
Somatropin Mammalian Derived contains mammalian-derived Somatropin, a potent metabolic hormone of importance for the metabolism of lipids, carbohydrates and proteins. It has the same structure as natural human growth hormone and is necessary for bone and muscular growth. Somatropin Mammalian Derived activates metabolism by activating metabolic processes in cells. It also promotes the proper development of the fat and muscle tissues.
In some cases, Somatropin Mammalian Derived may cause certain common side effects such as joint pain, muscle pain, swollen ankles, rash, itchiness or pain at the injection site. Most of these side effects do not require medical attention and will resolve gradually over time. However, you are advised to talk to your doctor if these side effects persist.

Disease/Condition Glossary
Growth hormone deficiency: Growth hormone deficiency (GHD), also known as dwarfism or pituitary dwarfism, is a disorder characterised by low growth hormone levels in the body. Growth hormone-deficient children have abnormally small stature but acceptable body proportions. GHD can be congenital (existing at birth) or develop later in life (acquired).
Prader-Willi syndrome: Prader-Willi syndrome is a hereditary condition characterised by obesity, intellectual impairment, and small stature (shortness in height).
Turner syndrome: Turner syndrome is a chromosomal disorder in which a female is born with only one X chromosome.
Idiopathic Short Stature: Idiopathic short stature is sometimes defined statistically as a height less than two standard deviations below the age- and sex-matched population.
