Tesamorelin
A growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analog studied for its effects on GH secretion and visceral adiposity. 10mg liquid vial, third-party verified.
What Is Tesamorelin?
Tesamorelin is a synthetic analog of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) that stimulates the pituitary gland to produce and release growth hormone. It is one of the few GHRH analogs with regulatory-cleared applications (under the brand name Egrifta) and has been the subject of extensive clinical research examining its effects on growth hormone levels, body composition, and metabolic parameters.
History
Tesamorelin was developed by Theratechnologies Inc. and first approved by the FDA in 2010 as Egrifta for a specific clinical application related to lipodystrophy in HIV patients. The compound features a trans-3-hexenoic acid modification on the tyrosine residue, enhancing its stability and biological activity compared to native GHRH. Subsequent research has expanded into broader areas of GH physiology and metabolic science.
Certificate of Analysis (COA)
Every batch of our peptides is independently tested by third-party laboratories to verify purity, identity, and potency. We maintain 98%+ purity standards across our entire product catalog.
Reconstitution & Storage
Reconstitute with bacteriostatic water (BAC water). Using a sterile syringe, slowly inject 1-2mL of BAC water into the vial, directing the stream against the glass wall. Do not inject directly onto the lyophilized powder. Gently swirl until fully dissolved. Do not shake.
Store unreconstituted vials at room temperature away from direct sunlight. After reconstitution, store at 2-8°C (standard refrigerator). Use within 30 days of reconstitution. Do not freeze.
For research purposes only.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is tesamorelin?
Tesamorelin is a synthetic GHRH analog that stimulates pituitary growth hormone production. It includes a trans-3-hexenoic acid modification for increased potency. Granted regulatory approval as Egrifta.
How does tesamorelin work?
Tesamorelin acts on GHRH receptors in the pituitary gland to stimulate natural GH production with enhanced stability compared to native GHRH fragments.
Can you stack tesamorelin and sermorelin?
Both are GHRH analogs acting on the same receptor pathway. Protocol Aminos carries both for researchers studying different GHRH analog profiles. Consult published literature for study design.
What does tesamorelin do?
In research, tesamorelin is studied for pituitary signaling, growth-hormone-related pathway activity, visceral adipose tissue reduction, lipid metabolism, and cognitive function. Published clinical data documents effects on GH, IGF-1, and body composition.
What is tesamorelin used for?
Research applications include growth hormone secretion, visceral fat metabolism, lipid/cardiovascular biomarkers, and cognitive function in aging.
Does the product come with instructions?
Each tesamorelin order from Protocol Aminos is intended for research use and includes product documentation with storage requirements and handling guidelines.
What's the actual amount in each vial?
Each vial contains the labeled amount of Tesamorelin in liquid form. The exact quantity is verified via third-party testing and documented on the batch-specific Certificate of Analysis.
Are additional supplies needed?
No. All Protocol Aminos products ship in liquid form, ready for immediate research use. No additional preparation, mixing, or supplies required.
How long does a vial last?
Shelf life depends on storage conditions. Store refrigerated at 2–8°C, away from direct light, and keep sealed when not in use. Specific stability data is available on request.
