This synthetic peptide fragment derived from human growth hormone (amino acids 176-191) has been specifically engineered to isolate the fat-metabolizing properties of growth hormone while completely eliminating effects on insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1), blood glucose regulation, and tissue growth
Laboratory Tests: During the initial treatment of patients with pernicious anemia, serum potassium must be observed closely the first 48 hours and potassium replaced if necessary
It is converted to coenzyme B12 in the body and in this form facilitates the conversion of homocysteine to methionine (methylcobalamin) and plays an important role in converting methylmalonyl-coenzyme A to succinyl-Co-A (fatty acid and amino acid metabolism)
In some cases a B12 deficiency can affect the optic nerve, leading to disturbances or changes in vision
