Side Effects for Androderm (testosterone)
ANDRODERM (TESTOSTERONE): This medicated patch contains testosterone. It is used for hormone replacement in men who are not able to produce enough testosterone (e.g., hypogonadism). This medication is absorbed through the skin, enters your bloodstream, and helps your body reach normal testosterone levels. Testosterone helps the body to develop and maintain the male sexual characteristics (masculinity), such as a deep voice and body hair. It also helps to maintain muscle and prevent bone loss, and is necessary for natural sexual ability/desire. This drug should not be used by women. (Sources: U.S. Centers for Medicare Services, FDA)

low blood sodium, remedied by increasing dietary salt. Have developed a skin sensitivity and wonder if the Trileptal could be involved. When sitting for more than a few minutes the skin on my back and back of my legs starts burning and stinging. Not terrible pain but very uncomfortable. Anyone?
nerve damage low back ,foot pain
Only thing was if i didn't eat with it i would throw up. Other than that nothing at all! My 5 year old was on it also and was over the flu in 2 days!! I've heard and read all the review on people having bad reactions so I was scared at first!
Should pull this nightmare drug off the market. There are better things out there and I stopped this on my own.
