What Novetropin is and what it is used for:

Your medicine, or rather the medicine that will take care of you, is called Novetropin. It contains growth hormone, which is also called Somatropin. Novetropin is produced by a special process known as recombinant DNA technology. It has the same structure as the growth hormone produced by the human body.
Growth hormone regulates the growth and development of cells in the human body. When it stimulates the growth of cells in the spine and in the long bones of the legs, growth hormone causes weight gain.

In growth hormone deficiency, the hormone also increases bone mineral content, the number and size of muscle cells, and also reduces body fat.
