Formula Information

A small arrow pointing down

Bayview Pharmacy is pleased to present a compounded formulation of Testosterone 1.5% and Anastrozole 0.04% in a topical gel form. This unique formulation is designed to address a range of health conditions, including hypogonadism, androgen deficiency, and breast cancer.

Testosterone is a hormone naturally produced in the body, playing a crucial role in the development of male characteristics. It is commonly used in the treatment of hypogonadism, a condition characterized by the body's insufficient production of testosterone. On the other hand, Anastrozole is an aromatase inhibitor, primarily used in the treatment of breast cancer by inhibiting the production of estrogen.

This compounded formulation combines these two potent ingredients into a semisolid topical gel, dispensed through a pump mechanism. This design allows for easy and precise application on the skin, facilitating targeted treatment and efficient absorption of the active ingredients. The gel-like consistency ensures a comfortable application experience, making it a preferred choice over other forms of administration such as injections or pills.

By applying this topical gel directly to the skin, patients can benefit from a more localized delivery of the active ingredients, potentially enhancing the effectiveness of the treatment. This formulation offers a convenient and non-invasive treatment option for those dealing with hypogonadism and breast cancer.

If you have any queries or require further information about this compounded formulation of Testosterone 1.5%/Anastrozole 0.04% topical gel, or how it can be utilized in the treatment of hypogonadism and breast cancer, please do not hesitate to contact us at Bayview Pharmacy. Our team is committed to assisting you in finding the most suitable treatment option tailored to your individual health needs.

It is primarily used for the treatment of hypogonadism and androgen deficiency in adult males. Additionally, it is indicated for the treatment of breast cancer in postmenopausal women. It is important to note that this formulation has not been studied in pediatric patients and is therefore not recommended for use in this population.

It is crucial to be aware that Testosterone 1.5%/Anastrozole 0.04% Topical Gel may interact with other medications, including oral contraceptives, anticoagulants, and corticosteroids. Therefore, patients should inform their healthcare provider of all medications they are currently taking prior to starting this medication.

Patients using this topical gel should be monitored for signs of hypercalcemia, hypercalciuria, and hypercalciuria-induced nephrolithiasis. Additionally, monitoring for signs of hypertriglyceridemia, hypercholesterolemia, and hyperlipidemia is necessary.

Patients are advised to avoid contact with the eyes, mouth, and other mucous membranes when applying the gel. If contact occurs, the area should be washed with soap and water immediately. Furthermore, patients should use sunscreen and protective clothing when exposed to sunlight to prevent any potential skin reactions.

Activities that may increase the risk of bleeding, such as contact sports, should be avoided while using this medication. Patients are also advised to avoid alcohol consumption during the treatment period.

How Does it Work

A small arrow pointing down

Testosterone 1.5%/Anastrozole 0.04% Topical Gel is a compounded medication designed to address low testosterone levels in men. Testosterone, a hormone naturally produced in the body, is responsible for male characteristics such as facial hair, muscle mass, and sex drive. Anastrozole, on the other hand, is an aromatase inhibitor that works to reduce the amount of estrogen in the body. This combination medication functions by increasing testosterone levels while simultaneously reducing estrogen levels.

The medication is a semisolid formulation dispensed through a pump mechanism, which allows for easy and precise application on the skin. It is designed for targeted treatment or absorption of active ingredients in a gel-like consistency. The gel should be applied directly to clean, dry skin on the upper arms, shoulders, or abdomen, avoiding the genitals or other areas of the body. It is recommended to apply the gel once daily, preferably in the morning, and to wash your hands thoroughly after application to prevent accidental transfer of the medication to other areas of the body.

It's crucial to understand that this medication may take several weeks to start showing effects. Regular blood tests are recommended to monitor your testosterone levels while using this medication. If you have any questions or concerns about using this medication, it is advised to consult with your healthcare provider.

Enter the formula as a compound

Compounded preparations have no NDC, so this formula will not appear in your EHR's drug search. Use your system's compound, non-formulary, or free-text prescription entry and name the preparation exactly as written in step 3. If your EHR forces you to pick a listed drug, pick the closest entry for the active ingredient and put the full formula in the prescription body (the Sig or directions field), not in Notes to Pharmacy.

Compounded preparations have no NDC and will not appear in your drug search. For EPCS to validate, select a drug entry your EHR recognizes as controlled, usually the bulk powder entry for the active ingredient (for example Ketamine (bulk) powder, not a branded product), then put the full formula from step 3 in the prescription body. A free-text entry that does not validate as controlled will be rejected by your EPCS module.
