Each mL of Teriparatide [recombinant-human parathyroid hormone (1-34)] injection contains: Recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1-34) 250 mcg, succinic acid USP/NF 0.29 mg, sodium hydroxide USP/NF 0/05 mg, glycerol USP/NF 50 mg, m-cresol USP/NF 3 mg, and water for injection USP/NF.
Teriparatide (rDNA origin) contains recombinant human parathyroid hormone (1-34), and is also called rhPTH (1-34). It has an identical sequence to the 34 N-terminal amino acids (the biologically active region) of the 84-amino acid human parathyroid hormone.
Teriparatide has a molecular weight of 4117.8 daltons.
Teriparatide (rDNA origin) is manufactured using a strain of Escherichia coli modified by recombinant DNA technology. Teriparatide injection is available as a clear and colorless solution.
Excipients/Inactive ingredients: Succinic acid, USP/NF, sodium hydroxide USP/NF, glycerol USP/NF, m-cresol USP/NF, water for injection USP/NF.
