WINSTROL 20

Stanozolol Tablets

PRODUCT NAME & PACKAGING

Brand Name: WINSTROL 20
Generic Name: Stanozolol
Strength & Packaging: 50 tablets per tub | 20 mg per tablet

Stanozolol is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone. Historical U.S. Winstrol tablet labeling described a much lower oral tablet strength, and the branded U.S. product is no longer marketed, so this 20 mg presentation is best treated as a manufacturer-specific strength rather than a standard historical U.S.-labeled format.

DESCRIPTION

WINSTROL 20 contains stanozolol, an orally active anabolic steroid. Reference sources describe it as a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid with therapeutic use in C1-inhibitor–deficient hereditary angioedema.

INDICATIONS

Historical and current reference sources identify hereditary angioedema as the principal human therapeutic indication, where stanozolol is used to help reduce the frequency and severity of swelling attacks.

DOSAGE & ADMINISTRATION

Route: Oral administration

Historical labeling summarized by drug references lists an initial adult regimen of 2 mg orally three times daily, with later reduction to the lowest effective maintenance dose. Because your listed product is a 20 mg tablet, which is not the historical labeled tablet strength, the safest catalog wording is:

“Administer only under the direction of a licensed healthcare professional and in accordance with the manufacturer’s labeling, applicable regulations, and patient-specific clinical judgment.”

MECHANISM OF ACTION

Stanozolol belongs to the anabolic steroid class and acts through androgen receptor–mediated activity. In hereditary angioedema, reference sources note that it can help by increasing C1 inhibitor–related activity, which may reduce attack frequency in appropriately monitored patients.

PRECAUTIONS

Use requires careful medical oversight. Reference sources warn about pregnancy contraindication, liver toxicity, and the need for monitoring during long-term therapy. Because this is an anabolic steroid, it should be used cautiously in patients at risk for androgen-related adverse effects and hepatic complications.

SIDE EFFECTS

Reported adverse effects include virilization/masculinization, liver injury, fluid retention or edema, and androgen-related changes such as voice deepening, hair growth changes, menstrual irregularities, breast tenderness, or prolonged erections, depending on the patient.

STORAGE

Store at room temperature, protected from moisture, heat, and direct light. Finished product handling should follow the exact manufacturer labeling for the supplied presentation.
