Executive Summary

Growth hormones (GH) (also known as human growth hormones) acts as a catalyst for growth, cell reproduction, and cell regeneration in humans and also other animals. GH is vital in order to have a normal physical growth in children and adults. One of the essential applications of GH is its use in the replacement therapy in adults with GH deficiency of either childhood-onset or adult-onset. It is also used for the treatment of conditions that result into short stature emanating from conditions apart from deficiencies in GH.

The global growth hormone market can be segmented on the basis of indication, route of administration and distribution channel. On the basis of indication, the market has been sub segmented into Growth Hormone Deficiency (GHD), Turner Syndrome (TS), Idiopathic short stature (ISS) and Prader Willi Syndrome (PSS). The market is split into subcutaneous, intravenous, intramuscular and oral categories on the basis of route of administration. On the basis of distribution channel, the market is divided into hospital pharmacy, retail pharmacy, clinics and online pharmacy.
