1. What is Testosterone Cypionate?

Testosterone cypionate injection is used to treat males whose bodies do not make enough natural testosterone, a condition known as hypogonadism.

Testosterone is a male hormone responsible for the growth and development of the male sex organs and for the maintenance of secondary sex characteristics.

This medicine is not intended for use in female patients.

Testosterone cypionate should be given only by or under the direct supervision of a doctor.

2. Important Warnings

2.1. Heart Effects Warning

There have not been enough long-term studies to determine whether testosterone replacement therapy in males has a negative effect on heart health.

However, short-term studies suggest that this medicine may raise the risk of heart attack or stroke and, in some cases, these complications may be fatal.

2.2. Liver Problems Warning

Using high doses of this medicine for a long period may increase the risk of serious liver problems, including liver cancer.

These conditions can be severe and may become life threatening.

2.3. Blood Clots Warning

This medicine may increase the risk of developing blood clots in the lungs or in the deep veins of the legs.

2.4. Misuse Warning

Testosterone can be misused if it is taken differently from how it is prescribed.

The risk becomes greater if a person receives higher doses than prescribed or uses it together with other anabolic steroids.

Misuse of testosterone can lead to serious health problems, including heart attack, heart failure, depression, and psychosis.

Patients should always use this medicine exactly as directed by a healthcare professional.
