Guest guest Posted July 9, 2002 Report Share Posted July 9, 2002 Just a suggestion, why don't you seek out one of the compounding pharmacies and see if they can make you some Testosterone Cypionate. It is the same medication just in generic form. I only pay $30.00 and it is the exact same medication only in generic form. My compounding pharmacy gets the testosterone cypionate powder from Upjohn who makes Depo Testosterone. Look into this. You will save a lot of money that way. Plus you will not have to worry about a shortage either. Most insurance companies will cover medication from compounding pharmacies because the drugs they dispense are true legend drugs. I have Merck-Medco (PAID) and they cover it with no problem. Testosterone available at Walmart I finally found some depo-testosterone. I called just about every Pharmacy in town and there are a couple of bottles in the Walmart right up the street. Now I just need to get my endo to call it in and I can go pick it up. I really wanted to try HCG but at least I'll have some testosterone in my system for awhile. Price is $96 for a 10ml bottle. That's pretty expensive but it beats paying out of pocket for HCG. I haven't talked to the pharmacist yet about the shortage but I'll find out if it's old stock or if it's now available when I go pick it up. Has anyone else run into these problems obtaining T?

Guest guest Posted July 11, 2002 Report Share Posted July 11, 2002 Thanks bro. I just found a bottle at a local Wal Mart, although it expires in October of this year. There was a guy who posted a message last week that said he had a compounding pharmacy make him some andro gel here in jacksonville. Unfortunately he doesn't have his email listed. I'm just going to pay the $96 and get the bottle tomorrow. I need to get some testosterone in my system fast. I can't even get erections anymore, this hasn't been a problem until very recently. Unfortunately I am unemployed at the present time and my only medical coverage is the VA. They won't have depo-testosterone in the pharmacy again until September. When they do, I will only have to pay $3 for a 10ml bottle. I have lost a ton of muscle mass in the past 3 weeks alone and I'm starting to get a gut again. I hope this will get me back on track. I just need to get my endochinologist to get me on estrogen management too. She's been the most difficult doctor I've worked with. She doesn't go by age on the reference range, just overall 2.62 - 15.4. I was at 3.5 with an over the counter andro spray supplement and she said that was fine. I just took a test on monday and I haven't taken it in over 3 weeks. I've been off injectable testosterone since about feburary. I can't wait to see how low this test will be. I should know by next week. I bet it's less than 2.

Guest guest Posted July 13, 2002 Report Share Posted July 13, 2002 Why don't you contact any compounding pharmacy and call them to see if they can get testosterone cypionate (generic). Mine here in Orlando makes the cypionate from the same powder that depo is make. You know you can get any prescription in the State of Florida filled at any pharmacy in Florida. My compounding pharmacy is Signature Pharmacy. Below is their website: http://www.signaturepharmacy.com/ They are used to filling prescriptions for people all over the State. Ask for Tony when you call. He can answer any questions. I pay $30.00 for a 10ml 200mg /ml bottle of testosterone cypionate. Much cheaper than Wal-Mart ever thought of being.
