What is Tesamorelin?
Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of GHRH. A brand-name tesamorelin product (Egrifta) is FDA-approved for a specific use: reducing excess abdominal fat in adults with HIV-associated lipodystrophy.
This listing is a compounded injectable preparation, 30mg in 3ml.
What the research shows
An FDA-approved brand and a compounded preparation of the same compound are not the same product. Compounded medications are prepared for individual patients and are not FDA-approved.
Uses outside the approved indication have not been established by FDA review.
Sizes, formats and list prices
The price list gives two retail prices for each size: one with an injection pen and one for the vial only. The pen version costs more because it includes the device.
Prices come from our current retail price list and may change. Your price is confirmed with you before any payment.
| Size | Configuration | List price |
|---|---|---|
| 30mg / 3ml | With Pen | $205.99 |
| 30mg / 3ml | Vial Only | $190.99 |
Regulatory status
