Description
Oxandrolone, often known as Anarix, is an anabolic steroid medicine that is commonly used to help people regain weight lost due to certain medical problems, to ease bone pain caused by bone loss (osteoporosis), to aid in the healing from severe burns, and for other purposes.
The molecular formula of Oxandrolone is: C19H30O3.
Uses :
Treatment of Catabolic Conditions: Oxandrolone may be recommended to those who have catabolic conditions such as severe burns, trauma, surgery, or long-term corticosteroid use. It aids in tissue repair, muscular mass gain, and recuperation.
Adjuvant Therapy for HIV-Associated Wasting: Oxandrolone can be used as an adjuvant therapy to enhance weight gain and muscle retention in the treatment of HIV-associated wasting syndrome.
Mechanism of action: Oxandrolone is an anabolic steroid, which means it promotes anabolism, or the formation of tissues. It works by enhancing protein synthesis in the body and stimulating muscular tissue growth. It also has a modest androgenic effect, which implies it has the potential to influence secondary sexual traits.
Side Effects:
Liver toxicity: Long-term or high-dose oxandrolone use can result in liver damage or abnormalities.
Cardiovascular effects: It may have an influence on cholesterol levels, perhaps causing an increase in LDL (bad) cholesterol and a reduction in HDL (good) cholesterol.
