Anabolic Steroid:
Oxymetholone is a type of anabolic steroid. Synthetic anabolic steroids are chemicals that replicate the effects of the male hormone testosterone. In addition to its medical use, it has been used for performance enhancement by some athletes and bodybuilders due to its ability to increase muscular mass and strength.
Usage
Oxymetholone is generally used to treat anemias such as aplastic anemia, myelofibrosis, and hypo plastic anemia, in which the body does not manufacture enough red blood cells. It can aid in the development of red blood cells, resulting in an increase in the blood’s oxygen-carrying capacity.
Side Effects:
Oxymetholone, like other anabolic steroids, can cause liver damage, water retention, high blood pressure, mood fluctuations, and changes in cholesterol levels. Prolonged use or misuse of this medicine can result in more serious health problems.
