Stanozolol is a synthetic anabolic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone. It is indicated prophylactically to decrease the frequency and severity of attacks of angioedema. In rare cases, serious and even fatal cases of liver problems have developed during treatment with stanozolol. Anabolic steroids may increase sensitivity to anticoagulants; therefore, dosage of an anticoagulant may have to be decreased in order to maintain the prothrombin time at the desired therapeutic level.

Sample Use Guides
It is recommended that the patient be started on 2 mg, three times a day. After a favorable initial response is obtained in terms of prevention of episodes of edematous attacks, the proper continuing dosage should be determined by decreasing the dosage at intervals of one to three months to a maintenance dosage of 2 mg a day.
Route of Administration:
Oral
To assess whether Stanozolol is capable of activating the Androgen receptor (AR), a cell-based transactivation system was employed consisting of the full-length recombinant rat AR and a reporter plasmid which contains an androgen response elemement.The calculated EC50 value for the stanozolol is 52 pM.
