Description
Testosterone 1.62% Gel Pump is a topical formulation containing testosterone, an androgenic steroid used primarily in hormone replacement therapy for males with low testosterone levels (hypogonadism). This gel is applied to the skin, where it is absorbed transdermally to increase testosterone levels in the bloodstream, helping to alleviate symptoms associated with testosterone deficiency, such as fatigue, reduced libido, and muscle weakness.
The active ingredient, testosterone, functions by binding to androgen receptors in various tissues, leading to the activation of genes responsible for the development and maintenance of male characteristics. It helps regulate processes such as muscle mass, bone density, red blood cell production, and sexual function.
Testosterone 1.62% Gel Pump is typically administered once daily, applying the gel to clean, dry skin on areas like the upper arms, shoulders, or abdomen. The use of a pump allows for consistent dosing, with each pump delivering the appropriate amount of gel. Patients using this medication must avoid contact with others' skin and take precautions to prevent accidental exposure.
