Educational information on traditional homeopathic use only. Not medical advice.
Testis Compositum is available in three packs: a box of 10 ampoules, a box of 100 ampoules and a box of 50 tablets. This guide compares them using only the facts on our product page: the dosage line and the composition. It makes no claims about results, and the choice of form is best discussed with a practitioner. Current prices are always shown on the product page. For the full monograph, see Testis Compositum: further details.

Choosing between 10 and 100 ampoules
The ampoules are the same in both boxes. The difference is how many you buy at once. A larger box generally works out cheaper per ampoule than buying several small boxes, but it is a bigger purchase and covers a long period at the frequencies below. The product page shows the current figures, so you can compare them for yourself.
How long does a pack last?
The dosage on the product page is, in general, 1 ampoule 3 to 1 times weekly. The monograph's further details describe 1 ampoule 3 times weekly at the start, and after improvement 1 ampoule once to twice weekly, alternating with suitable auxiliary remedies. Using only that arithmetic:
- At 3 ampoules a week, 10 ampoules cover a little over 3 weeks (3.3), and 100 ampoules cover about 33 weeks.
- At 1 ampoule a week, 10 ampoules cover 10 weeks, and 100 ampoules cover 100 weeks.
Your practitioner determines the actual frequency. The routes listed in the monograph (i.m., s.c., i.d., or if necessary i.v.) are practitioner administration. Injectable homeopathic ampoules are normally administered by a trained practitioner, and you should not inject unless you are trained to do so.
Check the expiry date printed on the pack you receive when deciding whether a large box suits your use. The manufacturer's leaflet for the N ampoule states that the medicine should not be used after the printed expiry date.
The tablet option
The dosage on the product page is: adults and children above 6 years, 1 tablet sublingually or dissolved completely in the mouth 3 times daily; infants and children up to 6 years, half the adult dosage. At 3 tablets a day, 50 tablets last about 16 days (50 divided by 3 is 16.7).
Why you cannot compare ampoules and tablets like for like
The tablet and the ampoule are different dosage forms with different directions. The ampoule is injected by a practitioner, and the tablet is taken under the tongue or dissolved in the mouth. Their compositions also differ. According to the product page, the ampoule lists 23 ingredients, and the tablet lists 20 (it does not include Strychninum phosphoricum, Curare or Manganum phosphoricum). A pack of one is therefore not directly comparable with a pack of the other. You can read the ingredients in our guide to the individual components, or in the monograph.
Putting it together
The 10-ampoule box is the smaller commitment of the two ampoule packs. The 100-ampoule box suits longer use, and the tablets are a different form with their own dosage. None of this is a recommendation. It is the arithmetic from the product page, so you can weigh the pack size against how you expect to use it.
Questions to ask a practitioner
- Is an injectable or an oral form more suitable for my situation?
- What frequency do you recommend, and for how long?
- Can you administer the ampoules, or do you recommend a particular practitioner?
