Good evening all,
Last week I called my doctors office for a refill. This is normal. I am generally prescribed 1 10ml vial of 200mg/ml Test Cyp. My doctor and I have an agreement for 200mg or 1ml of the solution once every 2 weeks but I take 50mgs twice a week to achieve more steady levels. Here is where the question starts and where things are out of the ordinary. The prescription he sent to my pharmacy was 1 10ml vial as usual with 1 refill but with a stipulation that the second vial has to filled by 08/09/2021. This would be a total of 20mls of 200mg/ml which at my dose would be effective to treat me for 10 months. The refill date is 6 months away. So I'd have 10 months worth of test in a 6month time period. Does this seem normal? Maybe I have just never done the math on it. I Understand that I would use 1 vial in 5 months and then could fill the next vial and request another refill. What if I titrated my dose up to fit the model? Obviously would have to dial back if I had to do blood work. Sort of doing a blast and cruise. Has anyone done this with a prescriber? Does it seem logical or should I just stick with prescribed dose because I could get screwed?
Thank you for you advice.
