Sermorelin is a growth hormone-releasing agent. In some cases, for certain qualifying patients, sermorelin therapy can be an alternative to growth hormone injections for the treatment of age-related growth hormone deficiency at the HGH for Men clinic.
What is Sermorelin?
Sermorelin belongs to a class of long-chain peptides called secretagogues. A secretagogue is a compound that stimulates the production and secretion of other biological compounds, such as hormones, enzymes, or neurotransmitters.
Each secretagogue is chemically specific to receptor sites on the organs or glands it targets. In the case of sermorelin, it is a synthetic drug molecularly identical to the growth hormone-releasing peptides (GHRP) naturally produced by your body that signal the pituitary gland to produce and release human growth hormone or HGH.
Because of its ability to stimulate HGH production, in some cases of growth hormone deficiency, particularly “adult-onset” or age-related growth hormone deficiency, sermorelin injections can be an alternative therapy to HGH injections.
How Does Sermorelin Differ From HGH Therapy?
Sermorelin injections are considered a type of growth hormone therapy. However, they are not the same things as HGH injections. Both sermorelin and HGH are used to treat patients with growth hormone deficiency; however, they work differently.
Prescription growth hormone injections work by injecting HGH directly into the bloodstream. Sermorelin injections, on the other hand, help to induce your body to naturally produce more HGH.
For patients, particularly older men who may be suffering from milder forms of age-related growth hormone deficiency, peptide therapies such as sermorelin injections may be a lower-cost alternative to actual HGH injections. Broadly speaking, sermorelin injections can provide qualified patients with similar benefits as HGH injections, but is less costly per month and has fewer potential risks and side effects than actual growth hormone injections.
However, you must understand that, like HGH itself, sermorelin is only available with a doctor’s prescription and will only be prescribed for you once one of our licensed endocrinologists has determined that you qualify for a sermorelin therapy through proper diagnosis and testing.


Who Needs Sermorelin Peptide Therapy?
Anyone who has been diagnosed with a growth hormone deficiency could benefit from sermorelin peptide therapy. However, it is particularly effective in patients who have only a slightly less than normal HGH level for their age. In such patients, the proven ability of sermorelin to increase HGH production is sufficient to return their HGH levels to the normal range.
Your hormone levels are determined by an HGH test. Once your degree of HGH deficiency has been determined, your doctor can discuss which type of growth hormone therapy is right for you sermorelin injections or HGH injections.
A clinical review of the effectiveness of sermorelin peptide therapy published in 2017 concluded that GHRPs such as sermorelin indeed provide benefits consistent with treating growth hormone deficiency; specifically, they found that, “GHRPs decrease reactive oxygen species, enhance antioxidant defenses, and reduce inflammation.” The literature review further concluded that GHRPs like sermorelin “exhibit a broad safety profile.”
How Will You Benefit From Sermorelin?
For patients who qualify, sermorelin therapy can be an effective alternative to HGH injection and provide many of the same benefits as traditional HGH therapy. For patients suffering from age-related HGH decline, who qualify for peptide therapy, sermorelin injections have been shown to:
- Boost physical strength and stamina
- Improve sexual performance and increase sex drive
- Amplify your ability to build lean muscle
- Aid in weight loss, particularly a reduction of belly fat
- Lead to better sleep quality
- Increase bone density and reduce the risk of fractures
- Improve focus and cognition
How Much Does Sermorelin Therapy Cost?
The cost of sermorelin varies by dose. In most cases, the recommended dosage of Sermorelin is 0.2 – 0.3 mcg once daily at bedtime by subcutaneous injection.
Sermorelin is sold as a sterile, non-pyrogenic, lyophilized powder intended for injection after reconstitution. Sermorelin for sale at our clinic is sold as:
- Sermorelin Acetate 9mg/10ml vial – $320 ea.
- Sermorelin Acetate 15mg/10ml vial – $380 ea.
Prices may vary; please check the website periodically for current pricing.
How to Get Sermorelin Prescribed in HGH for Men Clinic?
Sermorelin is a controlled substance, just as HGH itself is. Both medications can only be obtained with a doctor’s prescription. However, at the HGH for Men clinic, it is not difficult to get a prescription for sermorelin therapy. You need only follow these few easy steps:
- Contact us.
- See one of our licensed endocrinologists who specializes in treating age-related hormone loss in men.
- Have your hormone levels checked with a simple blood test.
- If your results indicate that you would benefit from a prescription for sermorelin, it will be prescribed for you. You will be able to order it online from our products for sale page, and your sermorelin injection kit will be delivered right to your home!
