I have lost both my testicals due to
cancer....
I am on a synthetic testosterone
(Androgel), that I have to rub on my body
everyday....it is quite expensive.....What
are some other options I have that might
be cheaper????
Thanks

Androgel too Expensive Posted: 07-31-08 11:51am
You are correct Androgel is way too
expensive.
Google "compounding pharmacy" in your
city. If you dr. will write a script for
a compounded medicine (most dr. will), you
can take that script to the compounding
pharmacy and get them to make you a better
product that Androgel for a lot less
$$$$$.
For example, Androgel cost me $230.00 per
month. So after 2 months, i said forget
it and started looking for alternatives.
Now I can purchase a 3 month supply of
compounded testosterone cream (same
testosterone as the Androgel) for $115.00
(i.e. less than $40 per month). So for 3
months of Androgel I would have paid
$690.00 and now I only pay $115.00 for 3
months.
Also, most pharmacists believe the
non-petroleum cream is a better delivery
system than the gel used in Androgel.
Good luck

Good luck. I feel very confident that you
will find the similar cost reduction while
still getting the benefits you need.

I would look into pellet replacement.
Great alternative, good pricing as well.
Google Sottopelle.
