Growth-hormone therapy for short children without growth-hormone deficiency.

Abstract:

:The daily subcutaneous injection of 0.3 U/kg of recombinant growth hormone (GH) for the two years prior to puberty in ten constitutionally growth-retarded children with normal pituitary function resulted in an average height gain of 10 cm per year. No manifestations of GH excess were seen, and a transient alteration in glucose metabolism was resolved after treatment.
