Tesamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone-releasing factor analog used primarily for its ability to reduce abdominal fat in people with HIV who experience lipodystrophy, a condition where fat distribution in the body becomes abnormal due to the effects of the virus or antiretroviral therapy.
Tesamorelin stimulates the pituitary gland to release growth hormone (GH), which in turn stimulates the liver to produce insulin- like growth factor-1 (IGF-1). This helps reduce visceral adipose tissue (VAT) in the abdomen.

Common side effects of tesamorelin include injection site reactions, muscle pain, transient increases in IGF-1 levels, and water retention. Tesamorelin is generally considered safe for use in specific populations, particularly in reducing visceral fat in HIV patients with lipodystrophy.
Alcohol consumption can make Tesamorelin work less effective
