  1. U.S. Market for Hormone Replacement TherapyExpensive Human Growth Hormone Therapy Deters Uptake “Even as end users become increasingly conscious of the potential benefits of the human growth hormone (HGH), the high costs have posed a barrier to immediate adoption. The anti-aging use of HGH medications is not covered by any healthcare plans and this is limiting the acceptance of the therapy.” Pharmaceutical and Biotechnology Group

  2. Industry Trends • Side effects are a concern, particularly for estrogen replacement therapy (ERT) products, since recent World Health Initiative studies have linked oral formulations to increased risk of breast cancer. • In the HGH market, all products are injectable. However, novel formulations such as needle-free injection devices and products that may be administered just twice monthly are making these easier to take. This is important for the large pediatric segment of HGH patients, as they typically have trouble taking daily injectable drugs. • As healthcare and drug costs continue to rise, healthcare plan providers are continuing to restrict formulary inclusion and/or charging members higher co-payments for more expensive medications. Many managed care plans do not cover HGH products. • Direct-to-consumer (DTC) advertising has had a profound effect on stimulating the usage of hormone replacement therapy (HRT) drugs.
