    Summary for Testosterone replacement
    Prescription only

    Aveed (testosterone undecanoate) is an injectable testosterone that’s used to treat low testosterone in adult males. It's an FDA-approved testosterone replacement therapy that must be injected by a healthcare professional due to possible allergic reactions and a serious warning called pulmonary oil microembolism (POME), which causes symptoms such as coughing, chest pain, and trouble breathing. Initially, you'll receive the first two injections a month apart, then an injection every 10 weeks after that. Common side effects include acne, pain at the injection site, and fatigue.
