This medication is available only by prescription at hospitals. It is also known by alternative names such as testosterone. It may be used to treat conditions including congenital adrenal hyperplasia, adrenal insufficiency, or as part of estrogen therapy. However, self-administration of this drug is strongly discouraged. Instead, patients should visit a hospital for routine blood testing. Prior to the test, maintain a light diet and strictly avoid smoking and alcohol consumption to prevent inaccurate test results.
