What is sermorelin?

Sermorelin is a fragment of growth hormone releasing hormone, the first 29 amino acids of the natural 44 amino acid molecule, which is enough to bind the GHRH receptor and trigger the pituitary to release its own growth hormone. It was FDA approved under the brand name Geref for diagnosing and treating growth hormone deficiency before that product was discontinued. It is now mainly available through compounding pharmacies for off label use.
