GH dose response curves up to 6 IU
J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 1988 Jul;67(1):36-40.
Dose-response studies with biosynthetic human growth hormone (GH) in GH-deficient patients. Jørgensen JO1, Flyvbjerg A, Lauritzen T, Alberti KG, Orskov H, Christiansen JS. Author information Abstract Increasing doses of biosynthetic human GH (R-hGH) were given sc to seven GH-deficient patients for three consecutive 14-day periods (2, 4, and 6 IU/day at 2000 h), followed by 14 days of no GH therapy. At the end of each period each patient was hospitalized for frequent blood sampling from 2000 to 1100 h the following day. A dose-dependent increase in serum GH and serum insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-I) levels occurred. However, the time course of the serum IGF-I concentrations was different on the four occasions; there was a significant fall in the evening when no therapy was given (P less than 0.01), a significant increase after injections of 2 IU R-hGH, and constant levels during treatment with 4 and 6 IU R-hGH. Plasma glucose levels were within the normal range, with a significantly lower fasting level (at 0400 h) when no GH was given. Breakfast induced a plasma glucose rise when GH was administered, but no rise without GH, and a postprandial serum insulin response that was GH dose dependent. GH therapy increased serum FFA (P less than 0.05) and blood 3-hydroxybutyrate levels, but had no effect on blood alanine or lactate or serum triglyceride and cholesterol levels. We conclude that the serum IGF-I response to GH is dose dependent, and that a GH replacement dose of 2 IU/day (equalling 1.5 IU/m2.day) is insufficient to maintain normal diurnal serum IGF-I levels. Furthermore, a GH-independent diurnal variation in serum IGF-I in these patients is suggested. This GH preparation also has diabetogenic and lipolytic actions.

The interesting part of the article is the last page or so in the discussion section.

Very good read. I wonder the best dose for people with normal gh output?

I did get headaches the first time I did GH with peptides. I don't know why but I think I was basically playing both ends against the middle.

We all know generics HGH are all tested with diff results. I'm curious how one could say what dose is good with these different results. Yes, good HGH are all close to the same but when you compare one that's almost twice as strong as another, how can one determine what's the best amount of ius to use?
