- > **Important:** Monitor blood glucose closely, as somatotropin is highly diabetogenic. Use with extreme caution in patients with a history of pancreatitis or those at risk for diabetes mellitus. In small animals, monitor for signs of **acromegaly** (broadening of facial features, increased interdental spaces, organomegaly) during prolonged therapy. GH therapy can also unmask underlying hypothyroidism.
藥物相互作用
- Glucocorticoids: May antagonize the growth-promoting effects of somatotropin.
- Insulin: Somatotropin induces insulin resistance, potentially requiring significant adjustments in insulin dosage for diabetic patients.
