Studies that did not test the peptide alone1

In this study, Sermorelin was a lab tool or a carrier, part of a mix, or the subject of a lab method. These results are not evidence about taking Sermorelin.

    In children with growth hormone deficiency, first-year growth during Saizen therapy was inversely correlated with the GH response to provocative GHRH testing carried out 6 and 12 months after the start of Geref treatment.

    In plain wordsIn children with low growth hormone, a weaker response to a GHRH test was linked to better first-year growth on growth hormone.
