Winstrol a synthetic derivative of testosterone. It was first made by Winthrop laboratories in the 60s and is one of the oldest anabolic steroids on the market.
It was once indicated for the treatment of several medical disorders in clinical medicine including hereditary angioedema. It has also been tried out as a treatment for extremely resistant cases of anemias and weight loss in HIV patients.
The drug was once used to be used to treat livestock for weight gain. The intramuscular formulation was given once a week and was widely used; but is hard to find the product today. The reason for this has been the widespread abuse of the drug and possible side effects. In fact, many bodybuilders got hold of the product which was recommended for cows and start to inject themselves with the drug!
Dose in Medicine
Winstrol is used as an intramuscular formulation in the farming industry to boost weight gain in livestock. For human use, the drug is available as an oral tablet. Stanozolol is usually given at 2 mg three times a day for hereditary angioedema. Often it is continued for 1-3 months at 2 mg per day without any undue side effects.
The drug is generally safe and can be taken at low doses for many months. The anabolic effects are generally seen after a period of 3-4 weeks and continue to increase over time. The drug also has some mild androgenic effects at high doses.
