Tesamorelin is a synthetic peptide drug used to reduce excess abdominal fat.It is a growth hormone-releasing factor (GRF) analog that works by increasing the body's natural production of growth hormone.
Mechanism of action
Tesamorelin acts on the pituitary gland in the brain, stimulating it to produce and release natural (endogenous) growth hormone.
- This increase in growth hormone levels promotes the production of insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) in the liver and other tissues.
- The rise in IGF-1 mediates various metabolic effects, including lipolysis (fat breakdown), which specifically targets and reduces visceral adipose tissue (VAT) or belly fat.
Key uses
HIV-associated lipodystrophy: Tesamorelin is FDA-approved to treat excess abdominal fat accumulation (visceral adiposity).
Off-label uses: It is also prescribed off-label for other conditions involving high visceral fat, such as age-related abdominal obesity and metabolic syndrome. It is not a weight-loss drug for general obesity.
Potential uses: Research is exploring its potential benefits for nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), muscle growth, and certain neurodegenerative diseases.
