KYZATREX is an FDA-approved, twice-daily oral capsule for testosterone replacement therapy in adult males with conditions associated with deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone, also known as hypogonadism. It helps increase testosterone levels, addressing issues like reduced libido, fatigue, and muscle loss. Studies show small increases in systolic blood pressure, especially in those on antihypertensive therapy, with minimal changes in diastolic blood pressure and heart rate. Careful monitoring is recommended for patients with hypertension. Overall, KYZATREX is effective for testosterone replacement with manageable impacts on blood pressure ^[1][2]. See Important Safety Information here.

KYZATREX is an oral testosterone replacement therapy. It is absorbed through the lymphatic system, avoiding the liver's initial breakdown, which helps maintain stable testosterone levels. Once in the body, KYZATREX converts to active testosterone, which binds to receptors in muscles, bones, and other tissues, improving energy, sex drive, and muscle mass. Testosterone works by binding to androgen receptors, which then regulate genes involved in male health and development. This process supports muscle growth, bone density, and sexual function, making KYZATREX effective in treating low testosterone levels^{[1][2][3][4][5][6]}. See Important Safety Information here.

An undecanoate is a type of chemical compound used to make testosterone last longer in the body. Specifically, testosterone undecanoate is testosterone attached to an undecanoate ester, which slows down its release into the bloodstream. This means it provides a steady and prolonged effect, making it useful for testosterone replacement therapy. The undecanoate helps testosterone be absorbed through the lymphatic system when taken orally, avoiding rapid breakdown in the liver and maintaining stable testosterone levels^[1][2][3].

KYZATREX is intended for men who have low testosterone due to certain medical conditions. Your healthcare provider can determine if KYZATREX is suitable for you based on your medical history and current health.
‍
It is not known if KYZATREX is safe or effective in males younger than 18 years old. Improper use may affect bone growth in children.
‍
Do not take KYZATREX if you: have breast cancer; have or might have prostate cancer; are a woman who is pregnant (KYZATREX may harm your unborn baby); are allergic to KYZATREX or any of its ingredients; or have low testosterone without certain medical conditions (e.g., do not take KYZATREX if you have low testosterone due to age). Start the conversation with your doctor.

We understand that women can experience an imbalance in hormones including testosterone, but currently, KYZATREX is only to be used by men. Due to lack of controlled studies, and potential virilizing effects, KYZATREX is not indicated for use in women. Females experiencing issues with their hormone levels should seek guidance from their medical providers regarding TRT for women and other alternative treatment options.

Testosterone Replacement Therapy (TRT) is a treatment for men with low testosterone levels, a condition known as hypogonadism. Symptoms of hypogonadism can include decreased libido, fatigue, and loss of muscle mass. To qualify for TRT, you need to have low serum testosterone levels (below 300 to 350 ng/dL) on two separate morning tests and show symptoms of hypogonadism. TRT comes in different forms, such as topical gels and intramuscular injections, and the choice depends on factors like cost and your preference. 
‍
While TRT can effectively improve symptoms and enhance quality of life, it requires careful selection, shared decision-making with your doctor, and close monitoring due to potential risks. Studies have shown that TRT can help improve symptoms and quality of life in men with low testosterone levels, but there are concerns about possible cardiovascular risks and long-term safety. Guidelines for TRT emphasize the need for personalized treatment plans and following clinical recommendations to avoid misuse. Despite some controversies, TRT is a commonly used treatment for hypogonadism, with ongoing research to better understand its benefits and risks^[1][2][3].

Diagnosing Low T involves simple lab tests to measure your Total Testosterone (Total T) and Free Testosterone (Free T), along with Sex Hormone Binding Globulin (SHBG), which affects Free T availability. Total T gives an overall level, while Free T shows the testosterone available for your body’s use. High SHBG can lower Free T, impacting its availability. Your doctor may suggest these tests and follow-up labs to monitor your testosterone levels over time, ensuring your treatment is accurately tailored to your needs.

KYZATREX testosterone therapy is administered orally, with two doses a day alongside food in pill form. This method is designed to be convenient and maintain stable testosterone levels in the body. Oral testosterone undecanoate is effective for increasing testosterone levels in individuals with hypogonadism. Compared to traditional methods like injections, patches, or gels, the oral form is less invasive and can improve compliance and comfort ^[1]. See Important Safety Information here.

KYZATREX testosterone therapy can offer several benefits for individuals with testosterone deficiency. It can improve sexual function by enhancing libido and erectile function, and it can boost mood and emotional well-being by alleviating symptoms of depression, irritability, and fatigue. Benefits of TRT for men can also include an increase muscle mass and strength, improved bone density, and help with the prevention of osteoporosis. For individuals with type 2 diabetes, TRT can improve glycemic control and insulin sensitivity. Additionally, TRT may positively impact cardiovascular health, cognitive functions like memory and processing speed, and overall quality of life. However, TRT should be administered under medical supervision, with regular monitoring to ensure safety and manage potential risks such as increased red blood cell count and cardiovascular concerns^{[1][2][3][4][5]}.

KYZATREX testosterone therapy can be used to treat erectile dysfunction (ED), particularly in men with low testosterone levels (hypogonadism). Studies show that testosterone therapy can significantly improve ED symptoms in hypogonadal men, with 91.9% of young men with organic ED reporting improvement after therapy^[1]. Combining testosterone therapy with PDE5 inhibitors, like sildenafil, has proven effective for men who do not respond to PDE5 inhibitors alone, restoring erectile function in 70% of diabetic participants^[2]. Long-term testosterone therapy has shown benefits in improving erectile function in men with functional hypogonadism and obesity, with significant improvements noted over up to 13 years^[5]. Testosterone therapy has also been effective in men with venous leakage, with some reporting significant improvement within 12-20 weeks of treatment^[3]. Additionally, in men with type 2 diabetes and hypogonadism, long-acting testosterone undecanoate improved sexual function and quality of life, including better IIEF scores^[4]. Regular monitoring and a tailored approach by healthcare providers are essential to maximize benefits and manage potential risks.See Important Safety Information here.

KYZATREX may cause a small increase in 24-hour ambulatory systolic blood pressure, especially in those on antihypertensive therapy. Diastolic blood pressure and heart rate changes are minimal. Other potential side effects include headaches, mood changes, and increased red blood cell count. Monitoring is recommended for patients with hypertension or those on antihypertensive drugs to manage potential risks^[1][2].
‍
KYZATREX may cause other serious side effects including:

• Increase in red blood cell count (hematocrit) or hemoglobin, which can increase the risk of blood clots, strokes, and heart attacks. You may need to stop KYZATREX if your red blood cell count increases.
• If you already have an enlarged prostate, your signs and symptoms may worsen while taking KYZATREX. These may include: increased urination at night, trouble starting your urine stream, urinating many times during the day, urge to go to the bathroom right away, a urine accident, inability to pass urine or weak urine flow.
• Increased risk of prostate cancer
• Blood clots in the legs or lungs: Signs and symptoms of a blood clot in your leg can include pain, swelling or redness. Signs and symptoms of a blood clot in your lungs can include difficulty breathing or chest pain.
• Abuse: Testosterone can be abused when taken at higher than prescribed doses and when used with other anabolic androgenic steroids. Abuse can cause serious heart and psychological side effects.
• In large doses, KYZATREX may lower your sperm count
• Liver problems: Symptoms of liver problems may include: nausea or vomiting; yellowing of your skin or whites of your eyes; dark urine; pain on the right side of your stomach area (abdominal pain).
• Swelling of your ankles, feet, or body (edema), with or without heart failure
• Enlarged or painful breasts
• Breathing problems while you sleep: TRT in men with hypogonadism may have increased potential of experiencing sleep apnea. 

Call your healthcare provider right away if you have any of the serious side effects listed above.
‍
The most common side effect of KYZATREX is high blood pressure.  Other side effects may include: headache, joint or back pain, diarrhea, increased red blood cell count, anxiety, constipation, swelling of the legs, and increased prostate specific antigen (PSA) levels.
‍
These are not all the possible side effects of KYZATREX. For more information, ask your healthcare provider or pharmacist.
‍
You are encouraged to report negative side effects of prescription drugs to the FDA. Visit www.fda.gov/medwatch or call 1-800-FDA-1088. You may also report side effects to Marius by visiting www.mariuspharma.com.

KYZATREX appears to be a safe and effective option for testosterone replacement therapy in older men. Studies show that it has a stable cardiovascular profile with minimal increases in blood pressure and heart rate. It effectively increases testosterone levels and improves well-being without significant adverse effects^[2]. However, it's important for older men to monitor their cardiovascular and prostate health regularly while on TRT. Consulting with a healthcare provider to discuss individual risks and benefits is crucial^[1][3][4]. See Important Safety Information here.

KYZATREX is a controlled substance (CIII) because it contains testosterone. It is not known if KYZATREX is safe or effective in males younger than 18 years old. Improper use may affect bone growth in children. KYZATREX is not meant for use by women.
‍
In the phase 3 clinical trial for KYZATREX (n=155), 4 patients (2.6%) reported high blood pressure. A total of 5 patients (3.2%) began taking new antihypertensive medications after study start. No patient increased their dose of antihypertensive medication.
‍
Your healthcare provider will monitor your blood pressure while you are being treated with KYZATREX. If your blood pressure increases, you may need to start medication to control your blood pressure. If you are currently taking blood pressure medicines, they may need to be changed or new blood pressure medicines may need to be added. If your blood pressure cannot be controlled, KYZATREX may need to be stopped.
‍
See additional Important Safety Information, including boxed warning, for KYZATREX here.

KYZATREX (oral testosterone) can slightly raise blood pressure, especially in people on blood pressure medication, with little effect on heart rate^[1]. Intranasal testosterone gel (Natesto) has minimal impact on blood tests and low risk of increasing red blood cell count^[6]. Intramuscular testosterone cypionate raises red blood cell levels more significantly, which can be risky^[2][6]. Transdermal testosterone gel and long-acting intramuscular testosterone don't significantly increase heart problems^[3][5]. Overall, KYZATREX works well but needs blood pressure monitoring, especially for those with high blood pressure^[1][4][5].

No. You may have heard about older forms of oral testosterone being liver toxic. The good news is that KYZATREX was specifically designed to be absorbed lymphatically. This means it bypasses your liver avoiding the liver toxicity associated with oral testosterone medications of the past. See Important Safety Information here.

Once approved to start treatment, your prescription is generated after the first consultation and sent to your address from one of our partnered pharmacies. The initial prescription includes a 30-day supply.

After the initial period, you'll receive communication about refilling your prescription. When necessary, you’ll get instructions on required additional lab work and when to schedule a follow up visit with your medical provider.

Labs include tests for T/Free T, CBC, SHBG, PSA, and Estradiol.

If you miss a dose of KYZATREX, take the missed dose as soon as possible if you remember shortly after. However, if it is nearly time for your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and do not take a double dose to make up for it. Continue with your regular dosing schedule after taking the missed dose or skipping it. If you are unsure about what to do after missing a dose, or if you miss multiple doses, contact your healthcare provider for specific advice. Always refer to the specific instructions provided by your healthcare provider or the medication's prescribing information.

Certain lifestyle changes can significantly impact testosterone levels, particularly in aging men. Weight management is crucial; studies show that weight loss is associated with increased testosterone and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG) levels, while weight gain leads to a decrease in these hormones. Obesity-induced hypogonadism can be mitigated by weight loss, as shown by a meta-analysis indicating significant increases in testosterone levels in obese men who lost weight^[1][3].

Dietary changes also play a role; the effects of low-carbohydrate diets on testosterone levels are mixed, with short-term increases in cortisol levels possibly negatively impacting testosterone, while high-protein, low-carbohydrate diets have been shown to decrease resting testosterone levels. Additionally, diets low in fat combined with exercise can reduce serum hormones, including testosterone, but may also reduce prostate cancer cell growth^[2][7]. 
‍
Physically active male athletes show a chronic increase in testosterone with concurrent physiological increases in estradiol. 
‍
Regular exercise, especially resistance training and high-volume moderate-intensity exercise, has been shown to increase testosterone levels. A study found that higher volumes of exercise significantly increased testosterone and improved sexual function in obese men^[9]. Combining exercise with dietary interventions, such as a very-low-calorie diet, enhances the benefits on testosterone levels and overall health by maintaining lean body mass and improving glucose tolerance^[10]. Smoking cessation is also important, as quitting smoking is associated with a greater decline in testosterone levels compared to non-smokers, suggesting a direct impact of smoking on testosterone levels^[1]. Metabolic and bariatric surgeries, such as Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (RYGB) and sleeve gastrectomy (SG), significantly increase testosterone levels in men with obesity and improve inflammatory and endothelial biomarkers^[4][6][8]. Managing comorbid conditions like metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes is also critical, as lifestyle interventions, including diet and exercise, can improve glycemic control and metabolic health, increasing testosterone levels^[5]. Regular monitoring and consultation with healthcare providers are essential to tailor these interventions to individual needs.

Stopping KYZATREX testosterone therapy should not be done abruptly or without medical supervision, even if you feel better. Consult your healthcare provider before making any changes, as sudden discontinuation can lead to the return of symptoms like fatigue, decreased libido, mood swings, and reduced muscle mass, as well as hormonal imbalances. If discontinuation is necessary, a gradual reduction in dosage under medical supervision is recommended. Regular follow-up appointments and monitoring are essential to manage discontinuation safely. Additionally, incorporating lifestyle changes such as weight management, regular exercise, a balanced diet, and stress reduction can help maintain health after stopping therapy. Always seek medical advice before altering your therapy regimen.
