Testosterone isobutyrate, sold under the brand names Agovirin-Depot and Perandren M among others, is an androgen and anabolic steroid medication and a testosterone ester which is used for indications such as low testosterone levels in men and delayed puberty in boys.[1][4] It is available only in the Czech Republic and Slovakia.[1] The medication is administered by injection into muscle once every 1 to 2 weeks in males.[1] Unlike most other testosterone esters, which are provided as oil solutions, testosterone isobutyrate is formulated as a microcrystalline aqueous suspension.[1]
