WHAT IS IT

IGF-1 LR3 (Long Arginine 3-IGF-1) is a man-made form of IGF-1 (Insulin-like Growth Factor-1) and it is used in the treatment of growth failure in children and IGF-1 deficiency, or growth hormone deficiency.

As an analog of IGF-1, IGF-1 LR3 mediates the effect of growth hormone although it is more potent than IGF-1. It binds to the IGF1 receptor to promote growth in almost every part of the body.

It also signals several growth pathways that result in increased growth and it inhibits the pathway of cellular death. Naturally, growth hormone stimulates the release of IGF-1 from the liver. However, IGF-1 LR3 can act in the absence of growth hormone which makes it useful in treating growth hormone deficiency and resistance. It differs from the natural IGF-1 in that it has 13 more amino acids, and has a longer half-life which is approximately 30- 30 hours. 

HOW TO USE

A typical dosage cycle of IGF-1 will continue for 2 to 12 weeks. For lean muscle growth and fat loss the dosage will be 40 mcg - 50 mcg daily for man and 10 mcg - 20 mcg daily for woman. Also, IGF-1 should not be injected more than twice daily

Please note, that childrens and adults who are prescribed IGF-1 for development deficiency should consult with a personal healthcare specialist about correct dosing.
