Hints and tips on administering Saizen®:

  • Remember it's best to deliver the growth hormone at the same time every day.
  • Just before bed is usually the best time for treatment (because the body normally releases growth hormone during the night.)
  • Try and rotate injection administration sites, so you avoid injecting into the same place each day- as this may cause a reaction.
  • Have you tried injecting into your thighs, arms, stomach, or buttocks?

The importance of sticking with the treatment:

  • It's really important to make sure treatment is taken regularly to maximise treatment effectiveness.
  • It's a good idea to measure your BMI regularly - you can find out how to do this and keep an electronic log of BMI on your personal space mywayup section of the website.
