What is Norditropin SimpleXx?
Norditropin SimpleXx is a crucial growth hormone that plays a significant role in the development of muscles and bones. It is administered to treat growth disorders in both adults and children who cannot produce enough of this hormone on their own. This includes individuals with chronic kidney failure, Noonan syndrome, Turner syndrome, Prader-Willi syndrome, those born with a small stature who do not catch up in growth, among other causes.
Additionally, somatropin is used in adults for the treatment of short bowel syndrome, or to prevent severe weight loss. This weight loss can be caused by various conditions, including HIV.
What does Norditropin SimpleXx (Somatropin) do to your body?

As you age, your doctor will gradually reduce the dosage. This is because the production of growth hormone naturally decreases with age.
