Deca Durabolin has the main ingredient Nandrolone, which increases calcium metabolism, stimulates bone marrow to produce red blood cells and has little effect on male hormones. The drug is indicated in the treatment of osteoporosis, anemia due to chronic renal failure or aplastic anemia.

1. What is Deca Durabolin?


Deca Durabolin is prepared in the form of a solution with a concentration of 50mg/ml. The drug contains the active ingredient Nandrolone, which belongs to the group of long-acting anabolic steroids.

However, when using the drug should always pay attention to the male hormone effect of the drug. The higher the dose of Deca Durabolin and the longer the duration of treatment, the more likely it is to cause virilization.
In addition, Nandrolone has been shown to increase calcium metabolism in patients, manifested by increased urinary calcium. An increase in bone mass has been observed in postmenopausal patients with clinically manifest osteoporosis during treatment with Deca Durabolin. Besides, Deca Durabolin also has the effect of nitrogen retention, affecting protein metabolism. In high doses, Deca Durabolin has the effect of stimulating bone marrow leading to increased erythropoiesis.

If the patient does not respond completely after 3-6 months of treatment, therapy should be discontinued. After the patient's red blood cell count returns to normal, the dose should be gradually reduced based on the results of hematological tests. If the patient relapses, treatment can be repeated. It should be noted that severe forms of aplastic anemia may not respond to this treatment; Children: There are currently no data on the use of Deca Durabolin in children.

Benign prostatic hypertrophy; Signs of virilization, note some that may not be reversible; Increase sex drive; Hypertension; Speech disorders; Digestive disorders including nausea, vomiting, abdominal pain; Effects on Hepatobiliary Function: Although Nandrolone is less hepatotoxic than drugs containing the 17c-alkyl class, there have been reports of mild hepatic dysfunction, including hepatic stasis, especially at high doses. ; Acne, hirsutism, rash, hair loss, itching; Early ossification and irreversible cartilage loss, muscle pain, arthralgia; Enlarged clitoris/penis, amenorrhea, amenorrhea, inhibiting sperm production, causing penile/clitoris erection pain, urinary retention; Injection site pain, edema, injection site hematoma, injection site swelling; Effects on test results: Decreased high-density lipoprotein and increased blood lipids, blood sugar, hemoglobin, hematocrit, 17-ketosteroids in the urine; Long-term use of anabolic steroids in high doses can cause decreased glucose tolerance, mental confusion, insomnia, and aggressive behavior.

When this condition is encountered, it is necessary to treat it first, and after restoring calcium levels to normal, continue with hormone therapy. Patients with liver dysfunction due to drugs can cause blood stasis, especially When used in high doses Children should only use anabolic steroids under close supervision because the drug can affect sex development and bone development during and after treatment. Children are also very sensitive to the undesirable effects of anabolic steroids, especially accelerated ossification of the osteophytes, leading to a halt in height growth and virilization. Women should avoid conception during pregnancy. treatment with the drug Deca Durabolin. Prolonged, high-dose anabolic steroid use can lead to impaired glucose tolerance, mental confusion, sleep disturbances, and aggressive behavior. Deca Durabolin contains peanut oil (peanut oil) and should not be used by patients allergic to peanuts. Because of the possible link between peanut allergy and soybean allergy, patients with soy allergy should also avoid Deca Durabolin Deca Durabolin Solution contains benzyl alcohol and should not be used on premature infants or infants. born because benzyl alcohol can cause toxicity and anaphylactic reactions in children and young children under 3 years of age.

High doses of Deca Durabolin may increase the anticoagulant effect of coumarin group drugs, so the dose of these drugs should be reduced. Deca Durabolin may increase glucose tolerance, thus reducing the dose of insulin or oral antidiabetic agents. When Deca Durabolin (50-100mg/week) is combined with rhEPO (a recombinant human erythrocyte-proliferative hormone), especially in young women and men, a decrease in plasma concentrations may result. rhEPO degree.
