Currently in Spain, treatment with GH is approved for hospital use with different formulations (JM), multidose vials (VM) and systems with electronic self-injection devices (DE). The long-term treatments, involves the lack of adherence to GH in pediatric patients, it has been estimated a lack of adherence between 5 and 82%. The main objective of this study is to perform a comparative analysis of costs and product loss among the different GH presentations approved in Spain in p...

Background: Several pharmaceutical formulations marketed GHRH, were being restricted in their choice occasions. Three display groups: single-dose, pre-filled pens/vials and electronic devices, self-injection systems. The choice may contribute to a greater or lesser adherence and a difference in the final cost of treatment (drug loss), attributable to the device itself or presentation. Presentations that require reconstitution device load, partial doses or stop in Pen contribut...

Background: Currently there are three distinct groups of GH devices: single dose (JM), preloaded pen/vial (VM) systems and electronic devices (DE) autoinjector systems. The choice could determine a greater or lesser adherence and thus influence the final treatment efficacy.Objective: Comparison of the therapeutic efficacy as measured by growth rate (VC), IGF1 as a function of various clinical variables, indicating GH and device used.<p class="abstext...
