DOSE AND METHOD OF ADMINISTRATION
DOSE
ADULT MEN
The recommended dose is 5 g of gel (i.e. 50 mg of testosterone which
equates to four
pump actuations, two 25 mg sachets* or one 50 mg sachet) applied once
daily at about
the same time, preferably in the morning. The daily dose should be
adjusted by the
doctor depending on the clinical or laboratory response in individual
patients, not
exceeding 10 g of gel per day. The adjustment of dosage should be
achieved by 2.5 g of
gel steps.
Lower doses may be required in renal or hepatic impairment.
Steady state plasma testosterone concentrations are reached by the end
of the 2
nd
day
of treatment with Testogel. In order to adjust the testosterone dose,
serum testosterone
concentrations must be measured in the morning before application from
the 3
rd
day on
after starting treatment (one week seems reasonable). The dose may be
reduced if the
plasma
testosterone
concentrations
are
raised
above
the
desired
level.
