pediatric growth hormone deficiency
"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, its torture for my dear 9 year old child."
