Comprehensive Drug Guide
How Does Xyosted Work?
Xyosted works by delivering testosterone enanthate into the bloodstream through subcutaneous injection, which gradually releases testosterone over the week. Testosterone is essential for many bodily functions, including the development of male secondary sexual characteristics, muscle mass, bone density, and the production of red blood cells. By restoring normal testosterone levels, Xyosted helps alleviate symptoms of hypogonadism such as fatigue, decreased libido, and loss of muscle mass.
Common Dosages
- 50 mg, 75 mg, and 100 mg pre-filled autoinjectors
Typical Dosing
- For testosterone replacement therapy: The recommended starting dose of Xyosted is 75 mg administered subcutaneously once weekly. The dose can be adjusted based on blood testosterone levels and individual response.
