Tesamorelin is a synthetic GHRH analogue comprising the 44-amino-acid GHRH sequence with an N-terminal trans-3-hexenoyl modification. Supplied as lyophilised powder for in-vitro research use only.

The above describes how this compound is characterised in the published peer-reviewed literature. It is not a claim about effects in humans.

Laboratory Handling

Tesamorelin is supplied as a lyophilised (freeze-dried) powder in a sealed glass vial. For laboratory reconstitution, add the desired volume of diluent (typically bacteriostatic water) slowly down the side wall of the vial. Swirl gently until fully dissolved - do not vortex or shake. Store reconstituted solutions at 2–8 °C and use within 4–6 weeks.

Use our Reconstitution Volume Calculator to compute the resulting mg/ml concentration.
