What is Tesamorelin?
Tesamorelin is a synthetic peptide that stimulates the release of growth hormone by acting on the pituitary gland. It is primarily used to reduce excess abdominal fat in people living with HIV, but its growth hormone-boosting effects make it valuable for muscle growth and fat loss.
