Ahh this explains why I haven’t gotten my scrip from 2 weeks ago yet (though CVS just abandoned it, so trying elsewhere) if both the medications I need to live are going to be on shortage this year idk what I’ll do www.ashp.org/drug-shortag...

it's less common in the US, but t. enanthate is pretty much equivalent (different carrier oil and marginally shorter half life - shouldn't make a difference for weekly shots but may if you're on every other week). use the same dosing.

You can probably get it from a compounding pharmacy; I've been doing that for weight loss medication during that shortage.

This frequently happens here in Canada because this T is made in the same USA facilities as COVID vax and when a new batch of vax is being cooked up, T production stops Anywho, my endo has it on my script to switch to gel when there's a shortage

This one is ALWAYS a battle to get filled but previously it’s just been shitty pharmacists or insurance

I moved over from injections to gel for this exact reason. My first year on T I was meant to have 12 injections. 1 per month. I got 5. My pharmacy even started new contracts trying to get a hold of the injections for me! You may just have to move over to gel.
