question from a user
I experienced injection site hives when using Hikma brand testosterone cypionate, other brands were fine for me
AlphaMD's Answer
Being that it's a commercial brand & since I can't tell by doing a simple search, it's very likely that they have cottonseed oil as their carrier oil & others you may have tried may have used Grapeseed oil, or vice versa. If you could tell for sure it would be a good way to rule out the oil being the cause. There are other carrier oils out there, but those two are the most common.
