Patient's question:
Side effects of anesthetic growth hormone, will the child be dependent on the medication? What kind of help is needed: side effects of anesthetic growth hormone, will the child be dependent on the medication?Doctor's answer:
I'm glad to serve you. Based on your description, I infer that the child is receiving anesthesia to administer growth hormone because there is insufficient excretion of growth hormone in their body, which interferes with growth and development. If the child is not given growth hormone, they will stop growing due to a lack of growth hormone. Once the child reaches a certain age and the growth plates in their bones close, the growth hormone will have little effect on them, so it will never lead to dependence.
