Is sermorelin FDA approved?
It was, as Geref, to diagnose and treat growth hormone deficiency. But the maker has since stopped making that product. Sermorelin is not sold as an approved drug in the US today. It is available through compounding pharmacies, which work under different rules than an FDA approved maker. It is not licensed in the UK, Australia, or Canada.
