Nandrolone

  • Nandrolone is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid derived from testosterone. It promotes protein synthesis and nitrogen retention, leading to increased muscle mass and strength. Nandrolone has a higher anabolic activity relative to its androgenic effects, making it beneficial for muscle growth while having fewer androgenic side effects than testosterone. It also stimulates erythropoiesis (red blood cell production), making it useful for treating anemia. Additionally, nandrolone helps increase bone mineral density and supports joint health by improving collagen synthesis and enhancing recovery from injuries.

    • Promotes muscle growth and improves lean body mass in patients with muscle wasting conditions

    • Enhances nitrogen retention and protein synthesis, leading to improved muscle strength and recovery

    • Stimulates erythropoiesis, increasing red blood cell count and improving oxygen delivery to tissues

    • Improves bone mineral density, reducing the risk of fractures in patients with osteoporosis

    • Supports recovery from severe burns, surgery, or trauma by enhancing tissue repair

    • Reduces muscle catabolism in patients undergoing long-term corticosteroid therapy

    • Supports joint health by improving collagen synthesis, reducing joint pain and improving mobility

    • May provide relief from chronic fatigue symptoms through improved muscle mass and energy levels

    • Enhances recovery time in patients undergoing physical rehabilitation

    • Provides long-lasting effects with less frequent dosing due to extended duration of action

    • Management of anemia associated with chronic kidney disease

    • Treatment of muscle wasting in patients with HIV/AIDS or cancer

    • Support for recovery from severe burns or trauma

    • Promotion of weight gain in patients with chronic illnesses or severe weight loss

    • Improvement of bone mineral density in osteoporosis

    • Management of conditions associated with muscle loss due to corticosteroid therapy

    • Support for physical rehabilitation following surgery or injury

    • Management of hereditary angioedema (off-label)

    • Support for joint pain and mobility improvement in degenerative joint conditions

    • Adjunct therapy in patients with chronic fatigue syndrome (off-label)
