Testoderm® (testosterone)
Androgenic 100
Anabolic 100
Chemical Names
4-androsten-3-one-17beta-ol
17beta-hydroxy-androst-4-en-3-one
Estrogenic Activity moderate
Progestational Activity low
Description
Testoderm® and Testoderm® TTS are testosterone delivery systems that utilize a “patch” to deliver the hormone transdermally. Both products were designed to deliver an
approximate 5 mg dose of testosterone to the body over a 24-hour period, after which point the patch is replaced with a fresh one. Testoderm is an older matrix-type skin patch, which uses no penetration enhancers, so it must be
applied on the scrotum, where the skin is much more permeable to testosterone. Testoderm TTS is a newer reservoir-type skin patch containing an alcoholic gel of testosterone, which can be placed on the arm, back or upper buttocks. Testoderm and Testoderm TTS are designed to mimic the natural circadian rhythm of
testosterone release in healthy young men, higher during the first 12 hours and lower during the next 12 hours of each day. The clinical significance of this, if any, is not
known.
