How Long Does The Bottle Last?

Updated July 2, 2013

Hello,
My doctor has me on 30 mg daily, 1 pump per axilla, and I was wondering how often would I need to purchase a new prescription, once a month? I was on injections but decided to go the Axiron route as this is less painful.
Thanks.

Glenn, your dosage details are inconsistent, as Axiron dispenses 30 mg per pump. So if you are at 1 pump per axilla, that is 60 mg total per day (30 mg each armpit). This is the usual starting dose. One bottle of Axiron contains enough for 60 pumps, or 30 days at one pump per axilla per day. But if you're at 30 mg per day, that's only one pump per day, not one pump per axilla, and a bottle will last you two months.

Hope this helps. I'm not a doctor but I just started Axiron so I just went through calculating all of this stuff with my doctor and pharmacist.
