Sermorelin is a synthetic (man-made) version of a naturally occurring substance that causes release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland. Growth hormone is naturally produced by the pituitary gland and is necessary for growth in children. In children who fail to grow normally because their bodies are not producing enough growth hormone, this medicine may be used to increase the amount of growth hormone produced by the pituitary gland.

This medicine is available only with your doctor's prescription.

Prograf (tacrolimus) weakens your body's immune system, to help keep it from "rejecting" a transplanted organ such as a kidney. Organ rejection happens when the immune system treats the new organ as an invader and attacks it.

Prograf is a prescription medicine and is used together with other medicines to prevent your body from rejecting a heart, liver, or kidney transplant.

Prograf is supplied as oral capsules, granules for oral suspension, and as an injection for intravenous use.
