Sermorelin
Also known as: Geref
Sermorelin is a synthetic analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) consisting of the first 29 amino acids of the 44-aa native hormone — the shortest fragment that retains full biological activity. It was FDA-approved in the 1990s as Geref (EMD Serono) for diagnostic testing of pituitary GH reserve and later for pediatric idiopathic GH deficiency, but was withdrawn from the US market in 2008–2009 at the manufacturer's request for commercial reasons (not safety or efficacy). It remains on the FDA Category 1 list of bulk substances nominated for use in 503A compounding, where it is now widely prescribed off-label for adult GH insufficiency and "anti-aging" indications.

Prices observed from public storefronts (last 24h), normalized to $/mg. "Evidence" is Merit's 0–100 Merit Score, derived only from observable verification evidence (methodology on /about); "Purity" is the latest independent COA. Some buy links are affiliate links — Merit may earn a commission at no extra cost to you, and where a vendor offers one, the code shown gets you a discount at their checkout. Affiliate status never affects price data, ranking, or the Merit Score (full policy on /disclosure). Research use only.

Anterior cervical osteophyte-related dysphagia in a long-term growth hormone user: a case report
Background Anterior cervical osteophytes can compress the esophagus, producing dysphagia. Although common on imaging in older adults, symptomatic osteophytic dysphagia is underdiagnosed, and the role of systemic anabolic factors in osteophyte growth is poorly characterized.
