Sermorelin is generally considered well tolerated when used under medical supervision. However, prolonged stimulation of growth hormone pathways may carry potential risks. These may include:

• Ongoing injection site irritation with repeated use

• Numbness or tingling sensations in the hands or extremities

• Fluid retention causing swelling in the arms or legs

• Changes in glucose metabolism affecting insulin sensitivity

• Theoretical concerns related to sustained growth hormone stimulation

Your provider will monitor your response to therapy and adjust your plan as needed to maintain safety and effectiveness.
