Oxandrolone® is a well tolerated 17-alpha alkylated anabolic steroid with very low hepatic toxicity. It promotes anabolism through androgen receptor activity and has a low incidence of adverse reactions. When taken in clinical doses, Oxandrolone® promotes improvements in strength and moderate increases in muscle mass. Oxandrolone® has been demonstrated to enhance body fat reduction significantly in both the abdominal and visceral stores (Int. J. Obesity, 1995; 19: 614-624). Oxandrolone® will not aromatize and therefore the anabolic effect of this compound can promote linear growth.
