Growth Hormone (GH) Dose Calculator - Dosage by Indication
The Growth Hormone (GH) Dose Calculator provides precise dosage recommendations for recombinant growth hormone therapy based on specific clinical indications. Growth hormone therapy is used to treat a variety of conditions, such as growth hormone deficiency (GHD), Turner syndrome, chronic renal failure, and small for gestational age (SGA) children who fail to catch up in growth. Accurate dosing is critical to maximize benefits while minimizing risks.
- Accurate Dosing: Ensures the appropriate GH dosage tailored to the patient’s specific condition.
- Improved Outcomes: Enhances growth and metabolic regulation by ensuring effective dosing.
- Minimized Risks: Reduces the risk of over- or under-dosing, which can lead to adverse effects.
- Clinical Versatility: Covers multiple indications, including pediatric and adult conditions.

Where:
- \( \text{Weight (kg)} \): The patient’s body weight in kilograms
- \( \text{Indication-Specific Dose (mg/kg/day)} \): The recommended dose of GH based on the clinical indication (e.g., growth hormone deficiency, Turner syndrome, or small for gestational age)
Always consult clinical guidelines or a healthcare professional before administering growth hormone therapy.
