There are different brands of testosterone cypionate. Depo-testosterone is the name brand there is also a generic form available but I'm not sure what it is called.

the generic (injectable) version is simply "testosterone cypionate injection, usp" (sandoz made what I used, NDC 0781-3073-70).

I didn't realize that Depo-Testosterone was the brand name. I thought that testosterone Cypionate was the brand name. Thanks for the fast responses

Testosterone Cypionate indicates what type of oil the Testosterone is suspended in.

Cypionate is the chemical modifier to add to T's chain length making it last in the body longer before metabolized by the liver. T is esterfied into Testosterone Enanthate also.

edit: the carrier oil is used to let the drug flow and resist bacteria, nothing more or less (as far as I know)
