Overview

Tesamorelin is a stabilised GHRH analogue approved to reduce excess abdominal fat in people with HIV-associated lipodystrophy.

How it works

It stimulates the pituitary to release growth hormone, raising IGF-1, which in turn reduces visceral fat.

Tesamorelin 10mg is a freeze-dried powder. After mixing with bacteriostatic water, compounds like this are usually injected subcutaneously (subQ): into the fat just under the skin with a short insulin needle.

Finding it. Anywhere on the belly at least 5 cm from the navel, avoiding scars and the belt line. Pinch a fold of skin and inject into it.

Why it is used. The most-used subcutaneous site: easy to see, plenty of fat and steady absorption. Weekly GLP-1 pens list it first.

Watch out. Move each injection 2 to 3 cm from the last to avoid hard lumps.

Why these sites for Tesamorelin 10mg

Subcutaneous (subQ)

Belly first. The abdomen has the most fat and the steadiest absorption, and you can see what you are doing.
Short needle, small volume. About 1 ml or less per spot with an insulin syringe. Pinch the skin if you are lean.
Move every time. Keep each injection 2 to 3 cm from the last to avoid lumps.

Every time: wash your hands, wipe the vial stopper and skin with alcohol, use a new sterile needle and syringe, and never share. See a doctor for spreading redness, heat, swelling, pus, fever or numbness. This is general guidance from standard nursing practice, not medical advice; a pharmacist or nurse can show you in person.
