Product
Information
Anadrol®-50 is used in the treatment of anemias
caused by deficient red cell production. It belongs
to a class of drugs called anabolic steroids, which
are similar to the male hormone testosterone.
Anadrol®-50 enhances the production
and urinary excretion of erythropoietin (EPO, a chemical
in your body that can increase the production of new
red blood cells), in patients with anemias due to bone
marrow failure, and it often stimulates red blood cell
production in patients with anemias due to deficient
red cell production.
Anadrol®-50 should not be used
in: male patients with carcinoma of the prostate or
breast; females with hypercalcemia with carcinoma of
the breast; women who are or may become pregnant; patients
with nephrosis or the nephrotic phase of nephritis;
patients with hypersensitivity to the drug or with severe
hepatic dysfunction.
Anadrol®
-50 is available by prescription only. Ask
your doctor if Anadrol® -50 is right for you.
