The evidence and its limits

Cleveland Clinic and collaborating institutions; funded by AbbVie and others · New England Journal of Medicine · 2023

TRAVERSE cardiovascular safety trial

Design:
Randomized controlled trial
Participants:
5,246 men aged 45–80 with low testosterone symptoms and preexisting or high cardiovascular risk; randomized to daily 1.62% skin gel or placebo.
Finding:
Major cardiac events met the prespecified noninferiority criterion; atrial fibrillation, acute kidney injury and pulmonary embolism occurred more often in the testosterone group.
Main limitation
Specific male population and gel regimen; mean follow-up 33 months. Not zero-risk or lifetime safety evidence, and not proof of the cause of one person’s injury.

FDA required blood-pressure monitoring study review

Design:
Agency review
Participants:
Review of required product-specific ambulatory blood-pressure studies; no single participant count supplied in the announcement.
Finding:
Completed studies showed increased blood pressure across testosterone products.
Main limitation
Agency summary of monitoring studies, not the TRAVERSE randomized enrollment or proof of one person’s injury cause.

The short answer

Who may have an AndroGel claim to check?
Ask about actual product use, diagnosed harm and the law. Keep the strength and dates. A brand name alone does not mean a firm accepts your case. [11]
What does not qualify as proof of a claim?
A prescription or warning does not establish your own cause. The trial is not a claim checklist. Do not treat an old risk headline as the current safety finding. [5]
What if I used a different strength or changed products?
Keep each strength and product change separate. Ask about the exact guide and warning date. Do not apply one gel study to every form. [11]
What records help, and how can I get them?
Keep prescription, strength, pharmacy and care records. Add the medicine guide if you have it. Ask which covered health files are missing. [9]

What rules a case out

Not covered by this case

  • A study or court grouping does not decide a person’s cause, fault or payment.
  • No single national filing deadline is supplied.

The process

What happens next

  1. 01

    You answer a few questions

    About two minutes. Nothing is sent until you agree on the last step and press submit.

  2. 02

    A lawyer looks at it

    A lawyer at the firm reads your answers and checks them against the current case criteria.

  3. 03

    The firm decides and gets in touch

    If the firm takes your case, you get the terms in writing to read before you sign. You can always say no.

The criteria attorneys check

  1. 01

    Gather product names, prescriptions and dates you can confirm.

  2. 02

    Keep diagnosis, treatment and authorized medical records.

  3. 03

    Ask which proof, legal rules and personal time limit apply.

Used AndroGel and have a health or claim question? Keep the exact strength and dates. New safety findings do not decide your cause. Ask a clinician about care and a lawyer about the claim.

Who may have an AndroGel claim to check?

Ask about actual product use, diagnosed harm and the law. Keep the strength and dates. A brand name alone does not mean a firm accepts your case.

The July 2025 label identifies AndroGel 1.62% as a skin gel and notes that its instructions differ from the 1% product. Use the label and prescription for your own history. The original court grouping did not decide that every AndroGel user was harmed or entitled to money.

What does not qualify as proof of a claim?

A prescription or warning does not establish your own cause. The trial is not a claim checklist. Do not treat an old risk headline as the current safety finding.

TRAVERSE met its main cardiac-outcome margin in selected men, with other safety differences. FDA removed cardiovascular boxed wording and added blood-pressure warnings in 2025. Both the study limits and the newer warning matter; neither guarantees zero risk or a legal result.

What if I used a different strength or changed products?

Keep each strength and product change separate. Ask about the exact guide and warning date. Do not apply one gel study to every form.

The selected label warns about unintended transfer to others, including children. Its dosing and application details are not interchangeable with all topical products. FDA requested further age-related and prostate information changes in June 2026; ask the pharmacist for the actual current label rather than assuming every revision is complete.

What records help, and how can I get them?

Keep prescription, strength, pharmacy and care records. Add the medicine guide if you have it. Ask which covered health files are missing.

Save the original wording and date of any warning you received. Covered-record access has exceptions, authority rules and allowed copy fees. A clinical diagnosis should remain separate from a later opinion about what caused it; ask why each requested file matters to your history.

Is there a deadline for an AndroGel claim?

Have a lawyer check your own claim and law promptly. No national brand deadline is supplied here. A warning date is not automatically your filing date.

The general court explanation says time limits depend on the claim and applicable law. Bring prior case papers or agreements and the treatment and diagnosis dates. Neither gathering records nor reading about the old federal grouping should be treated as proof that a personal clock paused.

What happens when I ask for a claim check?

Confirm who reviews the records and what the next legal step is. Read the fee and expense terms. A web inquiry is not a representation agreement.

Ask how recovery-based fees and case expenses are deducted and what costs might remain without recovery. The ABA model rule is not a quote from the receiving firm. Discuss urgent medicine concerns with the clinician independently of whether the lawyer agrees to take the case.

Find out where you stand.

The review is free and private. Asking for it doesn’t commit you to anything.
