“My compound prescription has helped me sleep, given me energy, improved my mood and helped me lose weight.”

I saw a physician for lack of energy, insomnia and unexplained weight gain. I've always been active, even running marathons well into my late 40's so these problems were very disconcerting.

I was given a battery of tests and it was determined that I had a very low testosterone level. I was given a prescription to bring this level back up to normal levels. It is not so much that I've gained a lot of muscle mass or had any kind of mood swings, it has just helped me feel like myself again. I would be very disappointed if this necessary prescription was suddenly made unavailable.

On this page, we can only touch on the data that demonstrates the importance of compounded medicines to the lives of millions of people in this country. While the decision to take this vital therapy from patients and physicians might be profitable for big pharmaceutical companies, it will be disastrous for the millions of patients that those same pharmaceutical companies cannot serve!

We encourage the appropriate committees in both the House and Senate to hold hearings on this critical issue.
