My son has taken it for 2 years now. It’s very commonly prescribed, I think. He had a hard time with the alternative medication (it burned), but he’s been good with Norditropin.

My son was on norditropin for about 15 months and was happy. We had to switch to skytrofa in the summer cuz we just couldn't get any cuz of supply issues. My son hates the skytrofa and can't wait for norditropin to be available again. Is norditropin available again? We're in NJ.

We are on an alternative one for short stature. Your brand isn't covered by our insurance.

Now on humatrope but was on genotropin (out of stock).
It has been working for us! Went from under 1% to just under 3rd in 6 months!
Humatrope requires mixing which is annoying. Genotropin was individual needles. Took more space to store but so much easier.

Hi. I’m Wondering if you can tell me
WhT difference your child felt between the norditropin &
The Skytrofa. My child is on Skytrofa which is easier being that it’s once a week.

My daughter was on it in nj and we couldn't get it anymore so we switched to omnitrope a few months ago. No issues on any.

He hates the actual injection. He prefers to take the norditropin everyday over skytrofa, even though he only has to do it once a week. It's more complicated, takes longer to inject, more painful. And we've had more than one occasion where it didn't inject fully. He finds it stressful and sometimes frustrating when it doesn't inject or mix properly.

BH he's been growing consistently since we started so as far as results, they both seem to work for him, with out side effects

Same.
We preferred the Nordotropin but now insurance wants us to stay on the Omnitrope.
BH he has responded to an amazing degree. I think 9 inches in 2 years (so far).

My daughter has been on Norditropin for a year. We are happy with her growth and it's easy to use. We are in NJ if they go out of stock sometimes it works to just request a different size, so for ex 30 MG or two 15 mgs etc.
