[QUOTE="Jasen Bruce, post: 7613, member: 14"] Since this study was using patients with true adult GH deficiency it seems common sense that QoL and blood levels will decrease once Dx. I am curious to see some data on the multitude of patients who were not truly growth hormone deficient who were on HGH through "anti-aging" clinics prescribing it for both cosmetic and subjective "sub-optimal" reasons. The patients I have the opportunity to work with, who had been on HGH for many years and can no longer obtain it due to tougher prescribing regs, appear to have sustained low levels many months after discontinuing. For some, Sermorelin has restored them sufficiently but it takes a long time (and patience from the patient). Starting the patient with 2mg QHS for 6 months then dropping to 1mg, going from there, seems to have worked well although this is only an observation on a handful of patients between the pharmacy and clinics I have worked for over the years. If the pituitary functions, recovery should be possible but previous long term GH users should understand that it will take time even with aggressive stimulation. Those who truly have a pituitary disorder which causes adult growth hormone deficiency will require replacement with rHGH since stimulatory hormones such as Sermorelin will not work. [/QUOTE]
