Description

Stanozolol 50 is an aqueous suspension of the C17 a-alkylated steroid stanozolol, an oral androgen derived from dihydro- testosterone. Stanozolol 50 acts on androgen receptors to promote anabolism through increased nitrogen retention and protein synthesis in muscle tissue. Stanozolol 50 is a strong anabolic substance with androgenic action. Stanozolol does not convert to estrogen and therefore does not produce typical estrogen mediated side effects such as water retention. While chemically identical to oral stanozolol, Stanozolol 50 is injected IM eliminating the first pass of liver metabolism of its oral counterpart reducing stress on the liver. Stanozolol reduces SHBG increasing free testosterone levels.

CLINICAL PHARMACOLOGY

Anabolic steroids are synthetic derivatives of the natural steroid testosterone. Stanozolol has been demonstrated to increase LDL and decrease HDL with serum lipid values Ta returning to baseline after cessation of use. Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is an autosomal dominant disorder caused by a deficient or nonfunctional C1 esterase inhibitor (C1 INH) and is clinically characterized by episodes of swelling of the face, extremities, genitalia, bowel wall,

and upper respiratory tract. In small clinical studies, stanozolol was effective in controlling the frequency and severity of attacks of angioedema and in increasing serum levels of C1 INH and C4. Stanozolol is not effective in stopping HAE attacks while they are underway.

The effect of stanozolol on increasing serum levels of C1 INH and C4 may be related to an increase in protein anabolism. Today, stanozolol is approved for use in the treatment of hereditary angioedema.

Mechanisms of Action

Winstrol (stanozolol 50mg) is a synthetic anabolic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone (DHT). Its mechanisms of action include:

  1. Binding to Androgen Receptors: Stanozolol binds to androgen receptors in muscle tissue, promoting protein synthesis and nitrogen retention. This leads to increased muscle mass and strength.
  2. Reducing SHBG Levels: It decreases levels of sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBG), which increases the availability of free testosterone in the body.
  3. Enhancing Nitrogen Retention: By improving nitrogen retention, stanozolol helps maintain a positive nitrogen balance, which is crucial for muscle growth.
  4. Stimulating Protein Synthesis: This process helps in the repair and growth of muscle tissues.

These actions contribute to Winstrol’s effectiveness in promoting lean muscle mass, improving athletic performance, and achieving a more defined physique.

Contraindications & Precautions

Winstrol (Stanozolol 50mg) is an anabolic steroid with several important contraindications and precautions to consider:

Contraindications

  1. Pregnancy and Breastfeeding: Winstrol is known to cause birth defects and should not be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding2.
  2. Prostate Cancer: It is contraindicated in patients with prostate cancer.
  3. Breast Cancer: Women with breast cancer should not use Winstrol.
  4. Hypercalcemia: Patients with high levels of calcium in the blood should avoid this medication
  5. Liver Impairment: Those with liver problems should not use Winstrol due to the risk of liver damage.

Precautions

  1. Heart Disease: Use with caution if you have heart or blood vessel disease.
  2. Cholesterol Levels: Winstrol can lower HDL (good) cholesterol and increase LDL (bad) cholesterol, which can lead to heart disease.
  3. Diabetes: Patients with diabetes should be monitored closely as Winstrol can affect blood sugar levels.
  4. Bleeding or Blood Clotting Problems: Use with caution if you have any bleeding or blood clotting disorders.

Monitoring

Regular monitoring by a healthcare provider is essential to check for any adverse effects, especially liver function and cholesterol levels

Interactions

Winstrol (stanozolol) can interact with a variety of medications and conditions. Here are some key points:

Drug Interactions

  • Major Interactions: There are 11 major drug interactions with Winstrol. These interactions are highly clinically significant and should be avoided. Examples include anticoagulants (blood thinners) and insulin1.
  • Moderate Interactions: There are 74 moderate drug interactions. These should usually be avoided unless under special circumstances. Examples include certain antidepressants (like Lexapro) and blood pressure medications (like amlodipine)1.
  • Minor Interactions: These are minimally clinically significant. Risk can be minimized with proper monitoring1.

Disease Interactions

Winstrol has 10 known disease interactions, including:

  • Liver Disease: Winstrol can exacerbate liver conditions2.
  • Diabetes: It can affect blood sugar levels2.
  • Fluid Retention: It may cause or worsen fluid retention2.

Alcohol/Food Interactions

There is one known alcohol/food interaction with Winstrol. Alcohol can increase the risk of liver damage when taken with Winstrol2.

Always consult your healthcare provider before starting or stopping any medication to ensure it is safe based on your personal health circumstances.

Adverse Reactions / Side Effects

Stanozolol, commonly known by its brand name Winstrol, is an anabolic steroid with several potential adverse reactions and side effects. Here are some of the key ones:

Common Side Effects

  • New or worsening acne
  • Difficulty sleeping
  • Headache
  • Changes in sexual desire

Serious Side Effects

  • Liver problems: Symptoms include abdominal pain, light-colored stools, dark-colored urine, unusual fatigue, nausea or vomiting, and yellowing of the skin or eyes.
  • Cardiovascular issues: Edema (swelling), with or without congestive heart failure.
  • Genitourinary effects: In men, this can include oligospermia (low sperm count), decreased ejaculatory volume, and prostatic enlargement. In women, it can cause virilization, such as deepening of the voice, hirsutism (excessive hair growth), acne, clitoral enlargement, and menstrual irregularities.
  • Hepatic issues: Life-threatening conditions like peliosis hepatis, hepatic neoplasms, and hepatocellular carcinomas have been reported.

Other Notable Side Effects

  • Allergic reactions: Difficulty breathing, swelling of the lips, tongue, or face, and hives.
  • Swelling of the arms or legs (especially ankles).
  • Frequent or persistent erections, or breast tenderness or enlargement in male patients.
  • Voice changes, hair loss, facial hair growth, clitoral enlargement, or menstrual irregularities in female patients.

It’s crucial to consult with a healthcare provider if you experience any of these side effects or if you have any concerns about taking stanozolol.

Pregnancy & Breastfeeding

Pregnancy

Stanozolol is classified as Pregnancy Category X by the FDA, meaning it is contraindicated during pregnancy due to the risk of causing birth defects. Specifically, anabolic steroid use, particularly during the first trimester, can lead to virilization of the external genitalia of a female fetus. Therefore, it should not be used if you are pregnant or planning to become pregnant.

Breastfeeding

There is no specific data on whether stanozolol is excreted into human milk. However, due to the potential for adverse effects on a nursing infant, it is generally advised to either discontinue the medication or stop breastfeeding while taking stanozolol.

If you have any concerns or need more detailed information, it’s always best to consult with your healthcare provider.

Storage

Stanozolol 50mg should be stored at room temperature, specifically between 59°F to 86°F (15°C to 30°C). It’s important to keep it away from moisture, heat, and direct light. Make sure to store it in a cool, dry place
