Humatrope (somatotropin or somatropin) is a polypeptide hormone of recombinant DNA origin. Manufactured by Eli Lilly and Company, it is used to stimulate linear growth in pediatric patients who lack adequate normal human growth hormone.It has 191 amino acid residues and a molecular weight of 22,125 daltons.ts amino acid sequence is identical to that of human growth hormone of pituitary origin (anterior lobe). Humatrope is synthesized in a strain of E. coli modified by the addition of a gene for human growth hormone.
Humatrope is a man-made form of human growth hormone and was first approved in 1987 to treat children who are growing slowly because they do not make enough growth hormone on their own. Once Humatrope has been mixed and is in liquid form, cartridges must be used within 28 days and vials must be used within 14 days. 2  Throw away any unused Humatrope in a cartridge after 28 days and in a vial after 14 days.
