In November 2012, MSD made the commercial decision to discontinue the production of Testosterone Implants. There were no alternative suppliers here in Europe.
There is now availability of Testosterone 100 mg Implants from Smartway Pharmaceuticals Ltd (SP Ltd) in the UK. SP Ltd is the only distributor of the product across the world (excluding USA). The product is manufactured by Advanced Pharmaceutical Technology Inc in the USA, and SP Ltd is their main distributor for the Testosterone Implants.
There is also availability through SP Ltd for Estradiol 25 mg and 50 mg Implants. These are also manufactured by Advanced Pharmaceutical Technology Inc in the USA, and again, SP Ltd is their main distributor for these Implants.
