TESAMORELIN

Tesamorelin is a synthetic peptide that mimics growth hormone–releasing hormone (GHRH), stimulating the body to produce more natural growth hormone. It is primarily used medically to reduce excess visceral fat, particularly in individuals with HIV-associated lipodystrophy. Tesamorelin works by increasing IGF-1 levels, which can influence metabolism and fat breakdown. It is typically administered via injection and is studied for its effects on body composition and metabolic health.
