HGH Injection Guide

What is a subcutaneous injection?

A subcutaneous injection, as illustrated in the figure to the right, is given in the fatty layer of tissue just under the skin. Human growth hormone is delivered in this manner.

Subcutaneous injection’s generally use a very small needle that causes little discomfort or no discomfort. Your doctor will have prescribed the amount and times to administer the medication.

The following brief guide offers generalized step-by-step subcutaneous injection instructions. This guide is not intended to support, not replace, the relationship between a patient and physician.
