Using medication derived from humans

Q: Is it permissible to use medicine which is derived from humans? Like injecting something to stimulate certain cells/proteins and then getting from them? Perhaps it is not transplant which is prohibited.

(My mother had a fracture on her leg bone and it has not healed over 7 months so doctors are planning another surgery to fix it and will put bone formation stimulating drug at the site of fracture most likely derived from humans).

A: It is not allowed.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
