Testenate Depot-250 Injection contains two active ingredients:

• Testosterone (250 mg): As an endogenous androgen, testosterone plays a major role in the normal growth and development of male sex organs and maintenance of secondary sex characteristics. Its functions include stimulating the growth of certain body parts such as the prostate, penis, and scrotum; promoting male hair distribution; altering muscle mass and fat distribution; retaining essential body elements such as nitrogen, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus; decreasing urinary excretion of calcium; increasing protein anabolism while decreasing protein catabolism; stimulating red blood cell production.

• Benzyl Alcohol (2%): This ingredient serves as a preservative in many injectable medicines. It ensures that the medicine remains sterile after opening and during multiple uses.

• Keep Testenate Depot-250 Injection in a cool place at a controlled room temperature of 25°C.

• If you're dealing with low testosterone levels, incorporating foods rich in vitamin D and zinc, such as fish and shellfish, into your diet might help boost your hormone levels naturally.
