SUMMARY: Correction: Cost of Genotropin: A reader has pointed out that The Medical Letter article on Growth Hormone for Normal Short Children (Medical Letter 2003, volume 45, page 89) underestimated the annual cost of Genotropin (Pfizer) because the Genotropin Pen 5 Delivery Device that is used with 5.8-mg cartridges is designed to deliver 5.0 mg of the drug. The annual cost of Genotropin in our November 10, 2003 article should have been $22,625.
