Genesis Oxandrolone Tablets 100 tabs (10 mg/tab)

Oxandrolone – Anavar

Anavar, a anabolic steroid, is favored by athletes and bodybuilders for its mild nature and effectiveness in promoting weight gain.

Its popularity stems largely from its non-aromatizing properties, which means it does not convert to estrogen, reducing the risk of gynecomastia and water retention.

Originally launched in the North American market nearly 50 years ago, Anavar was used to address infertility disorders, anemia, and assist those suffering from severe illnesses. Today, however, it has a limited role in clinical medicine. Unlike traditional anabolic steroids, Anavar offers significant benefits: it avoids estrogen conversion and has minimal effects on the hypothalamic-pituitary axis at lower doses. Consequently, users experience fewer side effects, such as loss of libido or testicular atrophy, common with other anabolic steroids.

Pharmacology

Oxandrolone acts both as an anabolic and androgenic compound. At lower doses, it promotes anabolic effects, while higher doses can produce strong androgenic responses. High doses of the drug may suppress gonadotropin release, reducing testosterone synthesis. Additionally, like all anabolic steroids, Anavar can raise LDL cholesterol and lower HDL cholesterol levels.

Indications

Currently, Anavar has limited clinical uses. Originally prescribed for anemia and weight loss in HIV patients, it has fallen out of favor due to abuse concerns. Originally manufactured by Searle, it is now produced by Savient Pharmaceuticals as Oxandrin. Some doctors may still prescribe Anavar for patients recovering from trauma, burns, or serious infections, occasionally alongside corticosteroids for bone pain in cancer patients.

Dosage

The recommended dosage for treating anemia or aiding weight gain is typically 2.5-20 mg/day divided into 2-4 doses. While some patients respond well to lower doses, others may require between 30-150 mg/day, usually over a treatment duration of 3-6 weeks. Oxandrin is presented in tablet form at 2.5 mg and 10 mg doses.

As with all anabolic steroids, Anavar presents potential side effects. At lower doses, side effects tend to be minor, such as mild abdominal discomfort or nausea. However, high doses may lead to severe effects, including:

• jaundice
• rare hepatic necrosis
• liver cancers
• general malaise
• testicular atrophy
• hair loss
• breast enlargement
• stomach cramps, nausea, bloating
• acne, oily skin
• diarrhea
• menstrual irregularities

Most side effects are reversible upon cessation of the drug.

Contraindications

Oxandrolone is contraindicated in several conditions, including:

• suspected prostate cancer
• breast cancer (male or female)
• pregnancy
• evidence of hypercalcemia
• allergies to anabolic steroids

Bodybuilders

A common choice among bodybuilders, Anavar is easily absorbed and should be taken with meals. Typical dosing for men is two tablets daily, while females typically take one tablet. Most bodybuilders begin with lower doses and often stack Anavar with other steroids like dianabol, winstrol, or anadriol. Treatment duration usually ranges from 4-8 weeks, starting with a recommended dose of 5 mg per day, increasing gradually over 2-3 weeks.

Women particularly favor Anavar due to its minimal virilization risk at lower doses, though dosages exceeding 5 mg per day over six weeks may lead to masculinization. Weight gains are typically slow and noticeable after 3-4 weeks.

Signs of virilization to monitor include:

• deepening voice
• decreased libido
• clitoral enlargement
• acne
• excessive hair growth

Women experiencing virilization should discontinue use immediately, as some effects may not revert.

Warnings

All anabolic steroids carry the risk of liver damage and jaundice. Reports exist of liver dysfunction and malignancies arising from steroid use, necessitating vigilance for possible liver complications. Regular liver function tests and ultrasound monitoring could be beneficial for users.

Overdose

Anavar is relatively safe, and serious overdoses are uncommon. While acute effects may be uncomfortable, they are unlikely to be life-threatening. Seeking emergency treatment is advisable in overdose cases, and support is the mainstay of treatment.

Costs

The price for 100 tablets (2.5 mg each) ranges from $100-$150, though high demand results in many counterfeit products. Always acquire Anavar from reputable suppliers, as quality and purity can vary. Authentic Anavar from pharmacies costs between $700-$1200 for 100 tablets.

Levels

Detection of Anavar and its metabolites is straightforward through urine tests, and major sports organizations routinely screen for anabolic steroids. Some metabolites can persist in the body for 7-14 days post-administration.

Legal

Anavar is classified as a controlled substance in the USA, with its distribution and sale prohibited. The DEA monitors its availability in pharmacies and online, and personal possession can lead to legal consequences.
