Norditropin® SimpleXx® is used as a growth hormone replacement in adults:

In adults Norditropin® SimpleXx® is used to replace growth hormone if their growth hormone production has been decreased since childhood or has been lost in adulthood because of a tumour, treatment of a tumour, or a disease that affects the gland which produces growth hormone. If you have been treated for growth hormone deficiency during childhood, you will be retested after completion of growth. If growth hormone deficiency is confirmed, you should continue treatment.Buy Norditropin 45iu (15mg)
