Sermorelin acetate, also known as INN/Geref/Gerel, is a peptide analogue of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) used as a diagnostic agent to evaluate growth hormone (GH) secretion and diagnose growth hormone deficiency. It is a 29 amino acid polypeptide representing fragments 1-29 from endogenous human GHRH and is considered to be the shortest fully functional fragment of GHRH.
Sermorelin acetate is used as a diagnostic agent to assess growth hormone (GH) secretion. It is also used as doping agent in sports due to its correlation with increased growth of muscular and skeletal tissue. Sermorelin use is also hypothesized to improve deep rapid eye movement sleep.
The benefits of using Sermorelin acetate therapy are multifaceted and include: helping to increase muscle strength, weight loss, improved bone mineral density, improved cognitive health, increased energy levels, restoration of sexual dysfunction, improvement of cardiovascular disease, enhancement of the immune system, improvement of skin health, and a boost in metabolism.
