摘要
This invention provides a therapeutic agent for the treatment of an abnormal eating behavior. The psychotic symptoms characteristic of anorexia nervosa such as apocleisis, intentional vomiting, eating in secret and the like have been treated with a tranquilizer and the like, but the effectiveness was only limited. By administration of a therapeutic agent according to the present invention, i.e., a human growth hormone (hGH) formulation, a will to eat can spontaneously be developed in a patient who previously received a nutrition only passively by means of a forcible nutrition program or a nasal nutrition supply. It is effective especially against the eating disorder in anorexia nervosa attributable possible to an increased central growth hormone releasing factor (GRH)-hGH secretion system.
