"My daughter, because of insurance, had to switch to this medication. She screams because of the pain she experiences, and we have to hold her down to give it to her. The problem is the actual medication, it stings severely. I'm not sure if we will have the heart to continue her therapy. Avoid Nutropin if you can! Try a different medication, there are other growth hormone medications that are completely painless! Before Nutropin, the daily injections were not bad at all, and she was growing beautifully. Now, it's torture for my dear 9-year-old child."

"My 14 y/o son has taken Nutropin for a year now. The only pain he experiences is the slight needle stick during injection. Before Nutropin, he hadn't grown (height or weight) at all in the last 2 years. He's put on 9 pounds and 4 inches!"
