Androgel 16.2 mg/g (88gm) is a topical testosterone gel used for hormone replacement therapy in adult men diagnosed with hypogonadism—a condition where the body fails to produce sufficient testosterone. Each gram of gel contains 16.2 mg of testosterone, designed to be absorbed through the skin to restore normal hormone levels.
Applied once daily to clean, dry skin on the shoulders and upper arms, Androgel helps improve symptoms such as low libido, fatigue, mood changes, and reduced muscle mass. The 88gm pump provides a convenient multi-dose format, allowing for precise dosing and consistent delivery.
Important precautions include avoiding skin contact with others after application, especially women and children, and washing hands thoroughly after use. Regular monitoring of testosterone levels, red blood cell count, and prostate health is recommended during treatment.
