Same drug, different formulation

When Ben had his last endocrine appointment, I mentioned the problems he had with the burning sensation with Nutropin to his nurse. He has never had as good an experience with the Nutropin as he used to have with the Norditropin. The nurse offered to call our insurance company and see if they would cover Norditropin for Ben. Amazingly, they agreed to supply Norditropin for the next year. Ben was so excited. The new supply arrived on Tuesday night and we tried the Norditropin for the first time last night. Ben was hesitant at first, he was convinced that it would hurt. However, we used the autoinjector and at the end of the shot, he jumped up and started celebrating. He said he didn't feel the needle or the solution go in. It was successful tonight too. It was so easy to use and administer. After the Nutropin for 6 months, it was simple. I can't believe that we went through all that pain and suffering for 6 months for nothing. Hopefully, I won't need to coax/cajole/threaten Ben every night from now on. This is definitely a cause for celebration.
