Where to Buy Xyosted
Xyosted (testosterone enanthate) is a prescription-only auto-injector for testosterone replacement therapy in adult males with hypogonadism. You cannot buy it over the counter; a doctor's prescription is required. It's available through licensed U.S. pharmacies, both online and brick-and-mortar.[1]
Fill prescriptions at major chains like CVS, Walgreens, Rite Aid, or Walmart Pharmacy. Online options include GoodRx for discounts (prices start around $300-$500 for a 4-week supply without insurance) or Amazon Pharmacy with delivery.[2][3]
How to Get a Prescription for Xyosted
See an endocrinologist, urologist, or primary care doctor for low testosterone testing (blood work confirming levels below 300 ng/dL). Telemedicine services like Hone Health or Roman offer virtual consults starting at $99, with labs and scripts if approved.[4]
Xyosted Cost Without Insurance
Cash prices average $450-$600 per month (3 mL vial). Use discount cards:
