1. What CinnaTropin® is and what it is used for

 

CinnaTropin® contains a biosynthetic human growth hormone called somatropin. It is used to treat growth failure in children:

 

If they have no or very low production of growth hormone (growth hormone deficiency)

If they have Turner syndrome (a genetic problem which may affect growth)

If they are short and were born small for gestational age (SGA)

If they have Noonan syndrome (a genetic problem which may affect growth)

 

CinnaTropin® is also used to replace growth hormone in adults:

 

In adults, CinnaTropin® is used to replace growth hormone if their production has decreased since childhood or been lost due to a tumor, treatment of a tumor, or a disease that affects the gland that produces growth hormone. If growth hormone deficiency is confirmed, you should continue treatment.
