The avoidance of Tev-Tropin side effects for adults with growth hormone deficiency is a crucial part of treatment. This medication is used to stimulate cell reproduction, muscle growth, bone density, brain functions, immunity, and more, and the last thing anyone wants is to experience adverse reactions when trying to improve overall health and well-being.

Actual side effects of Tev-Tropin HGH are exceedingly rare when this medication is prescribed by a hormone specialist following detailed blood analysis and physical examination. Adults with low growth hormone levels typically do well with HGH therapy – as long as the medication comes from licensed US pharmacies and not “black market” websites.

Most Common Side Effects of Tev-Tropin

Tev-Tropin HGH is a biologically identical version of somatotropin, a hormone secreted by the pituitary gland. Due to the bioidentical structure of HGH, side effects of Tev-Tropin rarely occur. The biggest risk is to those individuals who bypass dealing with a doctor for diagnosis and prescription and instead purchase this medication from unregulated sources. Injecting too much HGH is when side effects are most likely to occur.

The following Tev-Tropin side effects list highlights the most common, although rare, potential reactions:

Irritation, swelling, tenderness, or redness at the injection site	Muscle or joint pains or stiffness
Edema – minor swelling	Changes in bowel movements
Symptoms of a cold	Fatigue
Nausea or vomiting	Headache
Weakness	Mood changes

The above Tev-Tropin side effects tend to go away on their own within a few weeks as the body adjusts to the higher level of HGH in the bloodstream. If you do notice any of these symptoms, please let the doctor know.

Injection site reactions are the most common and typically subside with experience as a person becomes adept at self-administering the shot.

Least Common Tev-Tropin Side Effects

The following least common Tev-Tropin side effects list is important to pay attention to as any of these reactions could indicate a potential problem. While the chance of developing any of these issues is rare, any such indication requires immediate contact with the prescribing doctor.

Less common but potential serious Tev-Tropin side effects include:

Tingling or numbness in the hand, wrist, or fingers – carpal tunnel syndrome	Sudden, severe vision changes, blurred vision, or pain behind the eyes
Severe back pain or upper stomach pain spreading to the back	Swelling of the face, head, feet, or hands
Increased thirst, hunger, or dry mouth	Increased heart rate
Fruity breath odor	Drowsiness
Rapid weight loss	Changes in urination
Sleeplessness	Depression or mood changes

Additional serious side effects of Tev-Tropin due to increased levels of HGH beyond what the body requires include:

• High cholesterol
• Type 2 diabetes

If any adverse reactions are noted, the doctor may lower the dosage of Tev-Tropin HGH for a while – giving the body the chance to slowly adjust to the increase. This will allow the side effects and symptoms to resolve themselves naturally before gradually increasing the dosage back up to the prescribed amount.

How to Reduce the Risk of Tev-Tropin Side Effects

There are steps that each person can take to reduce the risk of any Tev-Tropin side effects. By following the guidelines below, you should have no problem with HGH therapy:

1. Always follow all instructions for administering HGH injections as prescribed – do not change the dosage or frequency of injection without doctor authorization
2. Do not share medications or use someone else’s HGH injections, even if you think you have the same problems – only a trained hormone specialist can determine who needs Tev-Tropin and if so, how much
3. Always check expiration dates and that the medication is free of particles, crystals, discoloration, or cloudy appearance before use
4. Purchase all medications from licensed US pharmacies – never off unregulated internet websites – HGH is highly counterfeited, and the only way to guarantee safety and quality is through legitimate pharmacies
5. Report any adverse reactions to the prescribing doctor at once to ensure that everything is proceeding as it should
