Sermorelin Tablets vs Injections: What to Know Before Starting

How Both Forms Deliver Sermorelin

Sermorelin is a GHRH analog that may stimulate the body’s own growth hormone production through interactions in the endocrine system. It does not provide synthetic growth hormone but may prompt the body’s own hormone pathways to respond.

Two delivery options are commonly available:

• Injectable Sermorelin is typically administered subcutaneously (under the skin) using a small syringe, usually once daily before bedtime.
• Oral Disintegrating Tablets (ODTs) are held under the tongue or in the cheek until they dissolve. This method allows absorption through the mucosal tissue of the mouth, potentially avoiding the need for needles.

Each method delivers Sermorelin to the body differently, and the choice may impact the patient’s experience and ease of use.

Pros and Cons of Each Delivery Method

Injectable Sermorelin

Pros:

• Long history of use in clinical settings
• Some licensed healthcare providers may be more familiar with injectable formats
• May allow for personalized dosing in some cases

Cons:

• Requires use of needles
• May need refrigeration, depending on formulation
• Travel and daily adherence can be more challenging for some individuals

Sermorelin Oral Disintegrating Tablets (ODT)

Pros:

• Needle-free delivery
• Some formulations do not require refrigeration (dependent on pharmacy)
• May be more discreet and convenient for travel
• May support adherence in patients who prefer simpler routines

Cons:

• Must be held in the mouth until fully dissolved
• Absorption may vary based on timing or oral pH
• Not all compounding pharmacies offer oral formulations

Sermorelin ODTs are absorbed through the oral mucosa, offering an easier alternative for people seeking the benefits of Sermorelin without the invasiveness of injections. While individual absorption rates can differ, many find the tablet format easier to use consistently.

Onset of Results May Vary

The effects of Sermorelin therapy, if prescribed, may not be immediately noticeable. Since it does not deliver synthetic hormones, but instead may help prompt the body’s own hormone signaling, any observable changes may develop gradually and vary based on individual factors. These include adherence to the prescribed routine, overall health status, and how the body responds.

Licensed healthcare providers on Eden’s platform monitor treatment progress and can make adjustments as needed. It’s important to have realistic expectations and understand that this therapy is not intended as a fat-loss or performance-enhancing treatment.

Choosing the Right Form of Sermorelin

When deciding between injectable and oral-mucosal formats of Sermorelin, comfort, lifestyle, and personal preference often guide the decision. For individuals who are comfortable with injections and handling syringes, the injectable format may be a suitable option discussed during a consultation.

For others, the needle-free oral disintegrating tablet may offer greater convenience and simplicity.
