What It Is

AOD-9604 is a modified amino acid fragment of hGH that targets fat breakdown without the broad effects of full growth hormone. This troche dissolves under the tongue for patients who prefer an oral route over the injectable vial.

How It Works

It stimulates fat metabolism and inhibits lipogenesis (fat production). The sublingual troche is held under the tongue so a portion absorbs through the oral mucosa, avoiding a daily injection.

Who It's For

Patients who want AOD-9604's targeted fat-loss support without injections. Works as part of a comprehensive weight management protocol.

Who Should Avoid It

Generally well-tolerated. Avoid during pregnancy.
