Abstract
A combined formulation for IGF-I and growth hormone (GH) is useful for enhancing growth of a mammal. This formulation, which may be administered by infusion or injection to enhance growth, comprises IGF-I and GH, each in amounts of 0.1 to 100 mg/ml, in a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier at a pH of about 5-6 containing a surfactant, wherein the amounts of IGF-I and GH in the composition are effective to promote growth of a mammal more than an equivalent dose of IGF-I or GH alone, and wherein the weight ratio of IGF-I to GH in the composition ranges from 0.002:1 to 240:1.
