Somatropin vs genotropin

ad

I'll try to keep this as short as possible, I recently tried a popular source / brand 10x 10iu kit of somatropin and unfortunately broke out in rashes or hives. I was pinning 5iu nightly in abdomen. It's the only new thing added and when stopped they went away so it was 100% the newly added HGH Somoatropin. I know it sounds silly but should I seek another brand or is it worth giving genotropin a shot? If so, are there any trusted brands besides the pfizer pens?

Thank you,

I'd try some new bac water from a different source before you write off the entire batch. I've ordered from a few vendors on here so far with good luck. You can also search google and find plenty of legit medical supply places that sell it as well.

It is known to happen in the underground HGH world that some people are sensitive to some additives in particular brands of HGH, and welts and rashes are the typical result of this. That being said, causation is not correlation, but I would suggest trying another brand of good reputation and see how that shakes out.

That's exactly what I was looking for. I really appreciate it. I will give another brand a shot to see how it goes.

Standard bac water from Amazon. I used it with a two other brands of hgh without any issue.

Well there’s probably 100 guys on here that will guarantee it’s from that water. I specifically asked in case it was that Amazon water. So many people have had issues with it and have also not had issues and then one day they start getting bumps and shit. I use it too just cus I ordered so much before finding out it’s sucks. But it’s known for having lots of issues

That is interesting. Where does everyone here suggest buying their bac water from?

Idk lol. Some sources have it but a lot of them sell you that same Amazon water. I think it’s ok to still get from Amazon, just not that basic one that’s always recommended but Amazon. Or you can use a medical supply site I think there’s a good one actually called medsupply.

Ya now that I think of it, your best bet would be a medical supply website.

Whenever they have Hospira in stock, I grab a few vials. Same for any other vendor who carries Hospira.

I did a quick google search and found this
GENOTROPIN should not be used by patients who have had an allergy or bad reaction to somatropin or any of the other ingredients in GENOTROPIN. In the event of an allergic reaction, seek prompt medical attention. GENOTROPIN cartridges contain m-Cresol and should not be used by patients allergic to it.

Shoot, that is discouraging. I didn't think they had any similarities.

It’s the exact same drug. One is a name brand and one’s generic. But regardless it doesn’t matter. You cannot be allergic to human growth hormone. It’s just a chain of amino acids wether Pfizer makes it or uncle bob

The GH is the same, but different manufacturers can use different additives, excipients, preservatives, etc. Could have a weird response to one of those, just like how some people respond poorly to different carrier oils.

Oh for sure, I just think he got disappointed thinking that now he couldn’t use any brand hgh. And my moneys still on the water. I’ve seen too many people, almost everyone who complains about redness from hgh, have it turn out to be Amazon water. Even if it was fine and one day just wasn’t.

I googled it and this is what it said-
GENOTROPIN should not be used by patients who have had an allergy or bad reaction to somatropin or any of the other ingredients in GENOTROPIN. In the event of an allergic reaction, seek prompt medical attention. GENOTROPIN cartridges contain m-Cresol and should not be used by patients allergic to it.
