Anamorelin is a drug used to treat endocrine and metabolic disorders. It is a ghrelin agonist, meaning it stimulates the release of growth hormone from the pituitary gland. Anamorelin is used to treat cachexia, a condition characterized by muscle wasting and weight loss, which is often seen in patients with cancer or chronic kidney disease. It is also used to treat growth hormone deficiency in adults. Anamorelin is available in tablet form and is taken orally once daily. It is generally well tolerated, with the most common side effects being nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea. The anamorelin market is a growing one, with many companies developing and marketing the drug. Some of these companies include Helsinn Healthcare, Eisai Co., Ltd., and Novartis AG. Show Less Read more
