What AOD-9604 Is Studied For

What Is AOD-9604?
AOD-9604 is a synthetic peptide that copies the tail-end fragment (amino acids 176 to 191) of human growth hormone. It was developed to isolate the fat-metabolism activity associated with growth hormone without the effects on blood sugar or tissue growth, and it has also been studied for cartilage and joint support. Research into AOD-9604 is ongoing, and at Cienega it is available by prescription only, after an individual evaluation by our medical team.
