Azmiro dosing schedule

testosterone cypionate · intramuscular injection every 2 to 4 weeks (vial or prefilled syringe) · Label checked

Short answer: The Azmiro label gives 50 mg to 400 mg every two to four weeks as a deep injection into the buttock (gluteal) muscle. The dose and schedule are set for each person based on age, diagnosis, response and side effects. The prefilled syringe is used only for 200 mg doses and only by a healthcare professional; other doses come from the 200 mg/mL vial.

This is what the FDA label says. Follow your prescriber. Your prescriber may use a different dose or pace than the label's standard schedule.

What Azmiro is approved for: Azmiro is approved as testosterone replacement therapy in males with low or absent natural testosterone due to primary hypogonadism (testicular failure) or hypogonadotropic hypogonadism (a pituitary or hypothalamus cause). The label says safety and efficacy have not been established in men with "age-related hypogonadism" or in children under 12 (section 1).

How is Azmiro taken?

Azmiro is given only as a deep intramuscular injection in the gluteal (buttock) muscle (section 2.1).

It comes as 200 mg/mL in a 1 mL single-dose vial or a 1 mL single-dose prefilled syringe. Any unused portion of a vial is discarded (sections 2.4, 3).

The prefilled syringe is given only by a healthcare professional and only for 200 mg doses. Its carton has no needle, so a suitable needle is obtained separately (section 2.5).

How can Dose Track follow this schedule?

In Dose Track you set up Azmiro as a protocol with the dose and schedule your prescriber gave you. A protocol can hold dose steps, each with its own dose and length in days or weeks, so a step-up plan like the one on the label can be entered once and the app moves to the next step on its own. Reminders follow the schedule, and every dose is logged with the date and time, so you can see which step you are on and when your last dose was. The app follows what you enter; it does not choose or change a dose.
