Stanozolol (2mg)

Stanozolol (2mg) — Uses and Benefits

Stanozolol is mainly used to treat hereditary angioedema, a rare inherited disorder that causes recurring episodes of swelling in the face, limbs, gut, and airway.

WHAT THIS MEDICINE IS USED FOR

• Preventing attacks of hereditary angioedema
• Reducing the frequency and severity of swelling episodes
• Occasionally used in certain wasting or anaemia conditions under specialist supervision

HOW IT WORKS

• It is an anabolic steroid that increases the liver's production of a protein called C1 esterase inhibitor
• Higher levels of this protein help control the abnormal swelling seen in angioedema
• It also has mild tissue-building (anabolic) effects

WHAT IT IS NOT USED FOR

• Not for muscle building, bodybuilding, or sports performance enhancement
• Not a treatment for general weakness, weight gain, or fatigue without a proper diagnosis
• Not for use in pregnancy or in children without specific medical advice
• Not a substitute for emergency treatment during a severe angioedema attack affecting the airway
