Somatropin dosage chart
This summary table compares available dose amounts and schedules by administration route.
| Route | Dose | Frequency & duration |
|---|---|---|
| Injectable | 0.15–0.30 mg daily (adult growth hormone deficiency; Omnitrope) | Once daily · Ongoing; individualized |
| Intranasal | 5 mg (CP024) | Once or twice daily; separate regimens · Short pharmacokinetic exposure |
| Inhaled | 8.4, 16.8 or 33.6 mg SIP powder (fill weight) | Once daily · 7 days |
| Topical | 2 IU on gel foam (dental socket application) | Single application · At tooth extraction |
Somatropin dosage by administration route
Somatropin injectable dosage
For adult growth hormone deficiency, the Omnitrope label gives a starting dose of 0.2 mg subcutaneously once daily, with a labeled starting range of 0.15–0.30 mg daily. The dose is individualized and adjusted over time. Reported subcutaneous schedules use 1–2 IU per day at a lower level and 2–4 IU per day at a higher level, over 3–6 months. These are not a replacement for indication-specific milligram dosing or individualized product titration.[1][11]
Somatropin replaces human growth hormone in indicated patients. Dose selection differs between pediatric growth disorders and adult growth-hormone deficiency.[2][3][4]
Somatropin intranasal — cp024 dosage
Documented investigational CP024 nasal regimens use 5 mg once or twice daily as separate short-exposure regimens. CP024 contains an absorption enhancer; this amount is not interchangeable with a somatropin injection or an ordinary nasal preparation.[8]
CP024 is an enhancer-containing nasal formulation of human growth hormone. Its formulation-specific exposure is separate from that of an injectable somatropin product.[8][2][3][4]
Somatropin inhaled — investigational somatropin powder dosage
The pediatric investigational inhalation schedule uses 8.4, 16.8 or 33.6 mg of somatropin inhalation powder once daily for 7 days. These are capsule fill weights used in the publication, not absorbed GH amounts or equivalents for an injection vial. Administration uses the study inhaler and active/placebo capsule combinations.[12]
The experimental inhaler delivers a dry powder through the lungs. Capsule fill weight, emitted amount and systemic exposure are different quantities, so its milligram figures cannot be substituted for an injectable somatropin dose.[9][2][3][4]
Somatropin local dental socket application dosage
A local dental procedure places gel foam containing 2 IU of somatropin into a tooth-extraction socket once, during surgery. This is a clinician-applied socket treatment, not a skin cream or a daily topical schedule.[10]
Local dental somatropin is intended to support healing of an extraction socket. Placement on exposed dental tissue is distinct from application to intact skin; these amounts do not define a skin-care preparation.[10][2][3][4]

Somatropin safety and side effects
Approval and product quality
FDA-approved somatropin injection products exist for labeled growth hormone deficiency and related indications; anti-aging, bodybuilding, or wellness use is outside those labels.[4][7]
Side effects and long-term safety
Glucose changes, fluid retention, joint symptoms, malignancy, intracranial pressure and retinopathy are prescription-label safety concerns. Tolerability depends on GH-axis exposure and dose titration; pediatric indication limits also apply.[4][2][3]
Route-specific dosing limits
The label has high-consequence contraindications and monitoring contexts that are separate from wellness use. Additional schedules attributed to Everything Peptide are reported patterns; citing research does not make these schedules clinically established or approved product instructions.[4][2][3][11]
