 Neither Growth Hormone or Uridine would be a cure of lipidystrophy related problems (growth hormone may be better for increased fat and uridine for decreased fat). Both are being studied and are not FDA approved for use for lipodystrophy. Both are expensive, may have side effects, and would not be recommended for use in pregnancy (uridine has not been studied in the pregnant patient to my knowledge). Unfortunately no easy answers are available but switching off offending drugs and exercise/diet/hormone optimization may help some. KH | |||||||||
