Testosterone phenylbutyrate
Testosterone Phenylbutyrate is a synthetic anabolic steroid and a derivative of testosterone. It is an ester of testosterone with a phenylbutyrate group attached to increase its half-life, making it a long-acting injectable steroid.
Pharmacology[edit | edit source]
Testosterone phenylbutyrate is a prodrug of testosterone and is converted into testosterone in the body. The phenylbutyrate ester allows for a slow release of the testosterone after administration. This results in a long-lasting effect and reduces the frequency of administration compared to other testosterone formulations.
Medical Uses[edit | edit source]
Testosterone phenylbutyrate is used in medicine for the treatment of hypogonadism and other conditions associated with low testosterone levels. It can also be used for hormone therapy in transgender men.
Side Effects[edit | edit source]
Like all testosterone products, testosterone phenylbutyrate can have side effects. These can include acne, hair loss, gynecomastia, mood changes, and an increased risk of prostate cancer. It can also have effects on cholesterol levels and liver function.
Legal Status[edit | edit source]
In many countries, testosterone phenylbutyrate is a controlled substance. This means it can only be used with a prescription and its use is monitored by health authorities.
