What is Tesamorelin?
A GHRH analog studied in clinical trials of visceral and liver fat reduction.
Listed vial contents: 5mg / 10mg. These are supplied quantities, not administration doses. Current pricing and availability are shown in the strength selector.
What mechanisms are being studied?
Tesamorelin is a full-length GHRH(1-44) analog with a trans-3-hexenoic acid modification at the N-terminus, providing enhanced stability and resistance to enzymatic degradation. It is FDA-approved (Egrifta) for reducing excess abdominal fat in adults with HIV-associated lipodystrophy; other uses are investigational.
What are the research questions?
- HIV-associated lipodystrophy: FDA-approved as Egrifta® for reduction of excess visceral abdominal fat in HIV-infected patients with lipodystrophy.
- MASLD/NASH (liver fat): The T-LIFT trial demonstrated 37% reduction in hepatic fat fraction.
- Visceral fat reduction: Specifically targets metabolically dangerous visceral adipose tissue.
- Cognitive function: The STAY trial showed significant improvements in executive function and verbal memory.
What does the published work describe?
Falutz J et al. (JAMA 2007) — 18% visceral fat reduction vs 2% increase with placebo at 26 weeks. Fourman LT et al. (Lancet Diabetes Endocrinol 2020) — T-LIFT: 37% liver fat reduction. STAY trial — Improved executive function composite scores. FDA-approved with comprehensive Phase 3 safety data.
What are the limits of this evidence?
The research described concerns the cited experimental materials and models, not proof that this supplied vial is a treatment. Cell or animal findings do not establish human benefits. Clinical findings, where cited, apply to the tested formulation and population; they do not validate this research product for human use.
