Yes, Tesamorelin is specifically designed and FDA-approved to reduce visceral fat (the deep 'belly fat' around organs). However, this approval and most research only apply to people living with HIV who have lipodystrophy.

What the research says

Tesamorelin is a synthetic growth hormone-releasing hormone (GHRH) analogue. Research across multiple Phase III trials confirms it reduces visceral fat in HIV patients.
