hgh up to $30,000 per year?!

**ward065** · 10-28-2005, 08:28 PM

i was watching 20/20 and they were talking about HGH therapy for children who produced insufficent amounts of HGH, and thus, were much shorter than average.

It was discussed that doctors perscribed them HGH, and these prescriptions cost AT LEAST $30,000 per year. they showed one child whose HGH cost $800 per week! and this was not even a large amount.

So comes my question........i don't think these children are taking 200iu of HGH per week. Hell, that's WAY more than most bodybuilders take. So why is this human growth hormone being prescribed so much more expensive than the hgh we buy?

i would have thought it would be the other way around

dude are u serious?? a goz pad or however you spell it is like 30 cents and they charge you on a statement for like $2.50 or so... they completely over charge you on anything and everything.
if i were that childs father then i would be looking into getting it like the rest of us all get it and save some serious ammounts of cash.

i would think that sources charge so cheaply compared to the doctors too because they sell to so many people compared to doctors not selling to as many clients. who knows, i could be completely wrong... but elite might have the idea ... all greed
