Higher blood sugar levels b. Increased lipid mobilization c. Retention of potassium levels d. Increased retention of sodium e. Improved tissue-building processes Rationale: “The drugs that mimic growth hormone (GH) are somatropin and somatrem. These drugs promote growth by stimulating various anabolic (tissue-building) processes, liver glycogenolysis (to raise blood sugar levels), lipid mobilization from body fat stores, and retention of sodium, potassium, and phosphorus. Both drugs promote linear growth in children who lack normal amounts of the endogenous hormone” Chapter 30, page 475 2.

Decreased adrenocorticotropic hormone levels Rationale: “The drugs that affect the posterior pituitary gland, such as vasopressin and desmopressin, mimic the actions of the naturally occurring antidiuretic hormone (ADH). They increase water resorption in the distal tubules and collecting ducts of the nephrons, and they concentrate urine, reducing water excretion by up to 90%” Chapter 30, page 475 3.
