Sermorelin is a synthetic peptide that mimics the action of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH), a natural hormone produced by the hypothalamus. Sermorelin works by stimulating the pituitary gland, the body's natural growth hormone factory, to produce and release more of its own growth hormone (GH). This differs from direct human growth hormone (HGH) therapy, which involves injecting synthetic HGH directly into the body.
Key aspects
- Mechanism of action: Sermorelin binds to GHRH receptors on the pituitary gland, stimulating it to synthesize and release growth hormone in a pulsatile manner, mimicking the body's natural rhythms. This helps maintain the natural feedback mechanisms of the growth hormone system and may reduce the risks associated with continuously high GH levels that can occur with direct HGH administration.
- Benefits: Potential benefits of Sermorelin therapy, based on research into growth hormone's effects, include:
- Improved sleep quality.
- Enhanced recovery and tissue repair.
- Better body composition (increased muscle mass, reduced body fat).
- Improved cognitive function and mood.
- Increased energy levels and vitality.
- Enhanced bone density.
- Improved skin health and anti-aging effects (increased collagen production).
Administration: Sermorelin is typically administered via subcutaneous injection, usually before bedtime to align with the body's natural GH release patterns. Some pharmacies can provide Sermorelin as a compounded medication.

- Safety and considerations: Sermorelin is generally considered to be safer and better tolerated than synthetic HGH therapy because it works with the body's natural processes to regulate GH release. However, some side effects may occur, including headaches, dizziness, nausea, injection site reactions, and potential hormonal fluctuations. Sermorelin should not be used by individuals with a history of cancer, those undergoing cancer treatment, or pregnant or breastfeeding women.
- Important note: While Sermorelin was previously FDA-approved for growth hormone deficiency in children, it's currently listed as a "discontinued drug product" by the FDA. This means that while it was not withdrawn due to safety or effectiveness issues, it's no longer actively marketed and new products require the FDA approval process.
