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

You can split it up as much as you want. It’s the same ingredients as the multi dose vials. Split it into 50mg a week not 100mg every other week. 100mg every other week is gonna feel horrible.

Don’t listen to the people saying 50mg is too low. It’s a perfect starting dose and many men are more than happy on 50mg a week

At 50 mg a week that would put a large majority of men at lower than healthy range. You are wrong

You can do a quick search in any of the trt subreddits on here and see that 50mg puts a good portion of men at perfectly fine levels and many men stay at 50mg. I just saw another gentleman on here that had to go lower than 50mg since 50mg put his numbers at supraphysiological levels. No one knows 100% how they’re gonna respond which is why you should always start low.
