Deskripsi

Tesamorelin is a stabilized synthetic peptide analogue of the hypothalamic peptide, Growth Hormone Releasing Hormone (GHRH) indicated for the reduction of excess abdominal fat in HIV-infected patients with lipodystrophy. Lipodystrophy is a metabolic condition characterized by insulin resistance, fat redistribution, and hyperlipidemia associated with antiretroviral therapy for HIV infection.

Interaksi Obat

3 Data
Prednisone The serum concentration of the active metabolites of Prednisone can be reduced when Prednisone is used in combination with Tesamorelin resulting in a loss in efficacy.
Prednisolone The serum concentration of the active metabolites of Prednisolone can be reduced when Prednisolone is used in combination with Tesamorelin resulting in a loss in efficacy.
Cortisone acetate The serum concentration of the active metabolites of Cortisone acetate can be reduced when Cortisone acetate is used in combination with Tesamorelin resulting in a loss in efficacy.
