Somatrem was first marketed under the brand name Protropin by Genentech in 1985. It differs from endogenous growth hormone by the addition of an extra methionine at the N-terminusGrowth hormone therapy#cite note-32.

Somatrem has largely been replaced by somatropin, marketed by several companies including by Genentech as the brand Nutropin.
