Overview

What is Vogelxo?

Vogelxo (testosterone) gel, for topical use is a clear to translucent hydroalcoholic topical gel containing testosterone, an androgen. Vogelxo provides continuous transdermal delivery of testosterone for 24 hours, following a single application to intact, clean, dry skin of the shoulders and/or upper arms.

Vogelxo is available in unit-dose tubes, unit-dose packets, and a metered-dose pump. One 5-g or two 5-g tubes/packets of Vogelxo contains 50 mg or 100 mg of testosterone, respectively. One pump actuation dispenses 1.25 g of gel, which contains 12.5 mg of testosterone. Four pump actuations or eight pump actuations contain 50 mg or 100 mg of testosterone, respectively. Each metered-dose pump container is capable of dispensing 60 pump actuations.

The active pharmacological ingredient in Vogelxo is testosterone. Testosterone USP is a white to practically white crystalline powder chemically described as 17-β hydroxyandrost-4-en-3-one. The structural formula is shown in the following figure:

Inactive ingredients in Vogelxo are carbomer copolymer Type B, carbomer homopolymer Type C, diisopropyl adipate, ethyl alcohol, glycerin, methyl laurate, oleyl alcohol, polyethylene glycol, propylene glycol, purified water, and tromethamine.

This subject had serum testosterone concentrations of up to 11,400 ng/dL, which were implicated in a cerebrovascular accident.

Treatment of overdosage would consist of discontinuation of Vogelxo, washing the application site with soap and water, and appropriate symptomatic and supportive care.

Clinical Pharmacology

Endogenous androgens, including testosterone and dihydrotestosterone (DHT) are responsible for the normal growth and development of the male sex organs and for maintenance of secondary sex characteristics. These effects include the growth and maturation of the prostate, seminal vesicles, penis, and scrotum; the development of male hair distribution, such as facial, pubic, chest, and axillary hair; laryngeal enlargement, vocal cord thickening, and alterations in body musculature and fat distribution.

Male hypogonadism, a clinical syndrome resulting from insufficient secretion of testosterone, has two main etiologies. Primary hypogonadism is caused by defects of the gonads, such as Klinefelter's syndrome or Leydig cell aplasia, whereas secondary hypogonadism is the failure of the hypothalamus (or pituitary) to produce sufficient gonadotropins (FSH, LH).

Non-Clinical Toxicology
Men with known carcinoma of the breast or known or suspected carcinoma of the prostate. (, )

Pregnant or breastfeeding women. Testosterone may cause fetal harm. (, , )

Monitor patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) for worsening of signs and symptoms of BPH. ()

Avoid unintentional exposure of women or children to Vogelxo. Secondary exposure to testosterone can produce signs of virilization. Vogelxo should be discontinued until the cause of virilization is identified. ()

Venous thromboembolism (VTE), including deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), have been reported in patients using testosterone products. Evaluate patients with signs or symptoms consistent with DVT or PE. ()

Some postmarketing studies have shown an increased risk of myocardial infarction and stroke associated with use of testosterone replacement therapy. ()

Exogenous administration of androgens may lead to azoospermia. ()

Edema, with or without congestive heart failure, may be a complication in patients with preexisting cardiac, renal, or hepatic disease. ()

Sleep apnea may occur in those with risk factors. ()

Monitor prostate specific antigen (PSA), hematocrit, and lipid concentrations periodically. (, , )

Vogelxo is flammable until dry. ()
