Tadalafil / Testosterone troche
Testosterone does not work on demand, and a product that implies it does is describing the wrong thing.
Something sits outside an approved envelope — a dose above the ceiling, an ingredient with no approval for this use, or a dosing schedule the drug has never been licensed for. Not a claim that the product is unsafe; a claim that the decision needs someone who can see your blood pressure.

Read this first
We are a competitor of the companies reviewed on this page. That is a conflict of interest and you should read everything here with it in mind. What we can offer against it: every factual claim is drawn from the company's own published material and linked, every clinical criticism applies equally to us where it applies, and we take no affiliate commission or referral fee from anyone named here — including from the retail pharmacies whose generics we rate most highly.
A controlled substance combined with an ED drug in an on-demand lozenge, with no strengths published on the product page.

Our assessment
Two separate problems here, and the second is the serious one.
The first is disclosure. A product page selling a compounded combination containing a controlled substance published neither strength, nor a dose, nor any note about scheduling. We have graded compounded products on this page harshly for vague dosing; a page that gives no figures at all cannot be evaluated on its merits, and the absence is itself the finding.
The second is what the combination implies. Tadalafil is an on-demand drug: take it, wait, it works. Testosterone is not. Testosterone replacement corrects a measured deficiency over weeks to months, its benefit on erectile function is real but modest and slow, and it is prescribed on the basis of morning blood levels drawn on more than one occasion. Putting it in a lozenge you place under your tongue before sex borrows the timing of the first drug to describe the second, and that is simply not how the hormone behaves.
It also inverts the clinical logic. If a man's testosterone is genuinely low, that finding matters well beyond his erections — it bears on bone density, muscle mass, mood and metabolic health, and it needs proper diagnosis, monitoring and a conversation about fertility, because exogenous testosterone suppresses sperm production and that suppression is not always reversible. None of that is compatible with an as-needed lozenge. If his testosterone is normal, adding it achieves nothing and carries the risks anyway.
We have written at length about [how this hormone gets sold](/journal/the-testosterone-industry-problem). This is the compact version of the same problem: a Schedule III controlled substance packaged as a performance product, sold beside items you take before sex, with the diagnostic work that should precede it nowhere in view.
If you want [testosterone therapy](/treatments/testosterone-therapy), get your levels measured properly and treated properly. If you want an erection tonight, [tadalafil alone](/generic-sildenafil-tadalafil-reviews) is approved, cheap and does that job.
Reasonable for
- Patients already under active management for diagnosed hypogonadism whose physician has specifically chosen this route and is monitoring levels
Not for
- Anyone using it as an on-demand product before sex — testosterone does not work that way
- Men who have not had testosterone measured on two morning blood samples
- Men who want to father children now or later
- Anyone taking nitrates in any form

A diagnosis, rather than a subscription.
If you have already been assessed and just need a refill, this may serve you well. If nobody has taken your blood pressure in years, that is the appointment to make.
