When present, side effects are typically mild and may include vivid dreams or altered sleep architecture as the brain undergoes increased neuroplastic activity, mild headaches during initial therapy (often resolving within days), temporary changes in appetite, or subtle mood variations during the adaptation period
In pediatric patients who have growth hormone deficiency (GHD), treatment with somatropin stimulates linear growthand normalizes concentrations of Insulin-like Growth Factor -I (IGF-I).In adults with GHD, treatment with somatropin results in reduced fat mass, increased lean body mass, metabolic alterations that include beneficial changes in lipid metabolism, and normalization of IGF-I concentrations
In addition, natural small-molecule compounds can also alleviate AKI through different pathways, such as the lipid peroxidation and iron metabolism pathways
