    Got sun pharma from cvs, not Watson

    Just curious if anyone has ever heard of sun pharma, and if they have ever reviewed it from cvs. The last two 10ml vials I got were Watson, curious why the change

    The FDA is usually required to allow the import of some drugs when shortages happen. Not saying that is the case, but last year up until February there was a shortage of Test E (5/10K vials) in parts of NC at all pharmacies.

    Watson is generic. They make plain testosterone , there's no trade name or anything like that. Even their website says they make generic medications.

    Here's a good way to look at it...take Pfizer and Watson. Pfizer makes DepoTestosterone, which is a trademarked name. Watson just makes testosterone, similar to buying a bottle of acetaminophen that's simply labeled "acetaminophen" rather than purchasing the name brand Tylenol.

    There's nothing special about any brand of testosterone, big pharma, compounding, generic or whatever you want to call it. As long as it's testosterone, clean and a fair price it's all the same.

    Run it and i hope its great! My last bottle of watson was crap anyways thats prolly y they didnt give u it! I know a guy on another forum said he got a letter from the VA saying their experience with watson had proved to be less than substantial so they switched him to pfizer, count ot as a blessing u did not have to waste money on watson this go around!
    My last bloods in december showed my test had tanked while on the current vial of watson, My total test cane back at a whopping 285!!!! WTF? And my free was low as well,

    My HCG was from Sun Pharma and worked great with no issues. Like mentioned, watson is the generic version. All work great with no issues if coming from a pharmacy, so I wouldn't worry.

    Glad I searched instead of posting right away -- I had the same question. I picked up my first refill today. Original vial was Watson -- with excellent results in ~12 weeks. I actually had to back my dosage down a little since my free doubled compared to whatever brand the anti-aging clinic used for 6 months before. My refill ended up being Sun Pharma and I was nervous results wouldn't be as good as I seemed to get from the Watson. I'll give it a try as well since I have bloods again in 6 weeks.

    I just recently got back under a dr's care for my trt,I've been brewing and self administering for the last 3 years. I also received the sun brand from the pharmacy. Seems fine to me won't know for sure til BW is done in a few weeks. Did you guys get 1 ml vials or a 10 ml vial? My insurance will only fill 30 day supply so I get 4 1 ml vials at a time. I take it this is normal insurance BS

    There would be no pain-in-the-keister abrasive disc needed to open vials if the insurance companies were not just complete BS.

    Want to know real BS?

    25 mg test Prop vials. That is 25 per CC. Are you kidding me? You have to make a Diet entry for the oil you inject from it.

    Have you compared your insurance cost vs the coupons on GoodRx (dot) com? I filled mine last week and it was $35 with insurance (copay, mine is 20%) vs. $42 cash with the coupon. Mine is the 10 mL vial, but I would definitely switch to coupon if it meant less trips to supply. In my case, it wouldn't be worth saving $7 to use insurance.

    I asked price last time (10 mL) and it was something like $160 full price with insurance, $100 cash price, or $42 with the coupon.

    Good luck!

    this, if you buy pharma grade test in the US, you are good to go. People saying they have gotten different results from different brands are delusional, I don't care what you claim.

    I just did my first injection with the sun pharma. It's noticeably thinner and more "watery" then the Watson. I recently purchased some alpha pharma test c for a blast and noticed its the same consistency as the sun pharma. Not sure if that's good or bad

    I received Sun Pharm test once as well. No problems with it for me.
