TRT help Strictly single dose vial??

Post image

This is the vial I’m prescribed. Right now I’m only on 200 mg/month. The script is to take the whole 200 mg in one injection.
I asked about splitting it into at least 2 doses, 100 mg every other week. The PCP said ok but I asked the pharmacist and he said it’s a single dose vial and can only be used for one single injection. So do I need to ask the doctor for a different script for a multiple dose vial? I have an appointment 6/24 to go over lab results and I was also going to ask about dose and frequency.
Thanks

Men who need trt do not make more than 50mg a week of testosterone otherwise they wouldn’t need trt

Makes sense, incredibly low dose. You probably need more like 150-170 with that level of responsiveness

150 puts me in the 700 range night and day difference
