Testosterone acetate, a testosterone ester, is an androgen. It is a steroid lipid molecule considered to be practically insoluble (in water) and basic. It is an anabolic steroid and testosterone prodrug. Testosterone acetate has a faster rate of absorption in the body then other esters. In combination with two other testosterone esters, testosterone valerate and testosterone undecanoate, it is a part of Deposterona, an injectable veterinary blend steroid preparation marketed in Mexico. With its blend of slow and fast-acting esters, Deposterona is essentially a low dosed alternative to Sustanon and is used primarily to treat impotence, weakness, fatigue, and hypogonadism in male breeding animals (cows, pigs, canines, and sheep), and also as a general protein-sparing anabolic. Testosterone acetate is classified as a Schedule III drug by the United States Drug Enforcement Agency and is only legal with a prescription due to his potential for misuse and abuse.

Sample Use Guides
For bodybuilding purposes, Deposterona (12mg of testosterone acetate, 12mg of testosterone valerate, and 36mg of testosterone undecanoate per milliliter of oil) is injected on at least a weekly basis, in a dosage of 120-360 mg (2-6 ml). Dividing the weekly dosage into two or more smaller applications can reduce injection volume. Cycles are generally between 6 and 12 weeks in length. This level is sufficient to provide noticeable gains in muscle size and strength.
