Improperly prescribing any substance can carry criminal implications. Improperly prescribing controlled substances like testosterone will result in criminal implications – to say nothing of what will happen to the offending doctor’s license. With that said, there are medical reasons for prescribing testosterone, and there are ways doctors can prescribe it to patients in need while mitigating risk. How?

Enter Mr. Rick Collins, JD. Mr. Collins is an esteemed legal authority in the field of many controlled substances – including testosterone. Dr. Jeff Segal and Mr. Collins discuss at length how to safely prescribe testosterone, the implications of marketing the substance, and how to occupy the interstice of what a patient wants and what the law allows.

Doctors who attempt to use the law to uncover these defamatory entities often lose, and lose big. How did she do it, and what were the final outcomes? Our two-part podcast has the details…
