Euro-Pharmacies Oxandrolex 100 tabs (10 mg/tab) EXPIRATION

Oxandrolone – Anavar

Anavar is a well-known mild anabolic steroid favored by athletes and bodybuilders for its ability to promote weight gain without severe adverse effects.

One of Anavar’s key benefits lies in its non-conversion to estrogen, minimizing risks of gynecomastia and water retention, making it highly desirable among users.

First introduced in the North American market nearly 50 years ago, Anavar was initially used for treating infertility, anemia, and wasting in ill patients. Today, its clinical use is limited; however, it remains popular for its unique advantages: no estrogen conversion and negligible impact on the hypothalamic-pituitary axis. This means users avoid common steroid-related side effects like loss of libido, impotence, and testicular atrophy.

Pharmacology

Oxandrin, an anabolic and androgenic steroid, mimics testosterone actions. At low doses, it primarily exhibits anabolic properties, but at higher doses, it displays androgenic activity which can suppress gonadotropin release, reducing testosterone synthesis. Additionally, like all anabolic steroids, Oxandrin can raise levels of LDL cholesterol while lowering HDL cholesterol, yet it remains unconverted to estrogen at low doses.

Indications

Usage of this drug in clinical settings has declined. Historically, it was prescribed for diverse anemias, weight loss in HIV patients, and osteoporosis. After excessive abuse led to its production cessation by Searle in 1989, Savient Pharmaceuticals resumed manufacturing it under the Oxandrin brand. Presently, it may be prescribed for weight gain in severely ill patients following trauma or burns, often combined with corticosteroids to alleviate bone pain in cancer cases.

Dosage

For anemia treatment or weight gain, the recommended adult dosage ranges from 2.5 to 20 mg/day, divided into 2-4 doses. Individual responses vary: some may respond to lower doses while others may require 30-150 mg/day over 3-6 weeks, with gradual increases if necessary. Oxandrin is available in 2.5 mg or 10 mg tablets.

While generally mild, Oxandrin may induce side effects, especially at higher doses, including:

• Jaundice
• Rare hepatic necrosis
• Liver cancers
• General malaise
• Testicular atrophy
• Hair loss
• Breast enlargement
• Gastrointestinal distress
• Acne
• Menstrual irregularities

Most side effects are reversible upon discontinuation.

Contraindications

Oxandrolone should be avoided in patients with:

• Suspected prostate cancer
• Breast cancer (male or female)
• Pregnancy
• Hypercalcemia
• Anabolic steroid allergy

Bodybuilders

Bodybuilders often choose Anavar due to its quick absorption; the typical regimen involves taking one tablet twice daily for men and one daily for women. Many start with low dosages, sometimes combining Anavar with Dianabol, Winstrol, or Anadriol. Treatment typically spans 4-8 weeks, often initiating with a recommended 5 mg daily dose, gradually increasing over 2-3 weeks.

Women are drawn to Anavar due to its mild virilizing effects; however, exceeding 5 mg/day for more than 6 weeks may lead to virilization symptoms. Weight gain is slow yet noticeable after about 3-4 weeks.

Virilization signs include:

• Deep voice
• Decreased libido
• Clitoral enlargement
• Acne
• Excessive hair growth

Women experiencing virilization should discontinue use immediately. While some effects, like acne or hair growth, may regress, others might not.

Warnings

All anabolic steroids, including Oxandrolone, pose liver risks and potential jaundice development. Serious complications, including liver cancer, necessitate vigilant monitoring, possibly including routine liver enzymes and annual ultrasounds.

Overdose

Overdosing on anabolic steroids is rare and seldom life-threatening. If an overdose occurs, finding supportive care at an emergency room is advisable.

Costs

Anavar pricing varies, with 100 tablets (2.5 mg) costing between $100-$150. Given its high demand, counterfeit Anavar versions are prevalent. Buyers should procure from reputable suppliers to avoid fraudulent products, especially when purchasing from Mexico, where quality may be uncertain. Genuine Anavar from pharmacies can range from $700-1200 for 100 tablets.

Levels

Anavar and its metabolites are easily detectable in urine, leading major sports organizations to routinely screen for anabolic steroids. Metabolites may remain in the body for 7-14 days post-use.

Legal

Anavar is classified as a controlled substance in the USA, making its sale and distribution illegal. The DEA monitors its availability in pharmacies and online. As it lacks clinical approval in the USA, possession of Anavar is also illegal.
