Who Should Not Use Anavar?

Anavar, a weight loss drug, has gained immense popularity in the last few years. This drug to lose body fat, especially abdominal and visceral fat, is used by male as well as well as female athletes. However, some athletes and others should avoid using this drug or follow preventive measures to stay away from Anavar side effects.

Also known as Oxandrolone, this steroid is not advised to those diagnosed with severe health conditions such as bone problems (such as osteopenia, osteoporosis), stroke or blood clots, heart disease (such as chest pain, heart attack, heart failure), high blood fats (cholesterol), high blood pressure, kidney problems, and liver problems. Anavar is also not advised to pregnant or breastfeeding women and is not recommended even to women who may become pregnant while taking the drug. Pregnant women should even avoid breathing dust from Anavar tablets as drug may be absorbed through the skin and lungs.

Anavar is not recommended to children or people with an existing allergy to Oxandrolone or any of its ingredients. This steroid is also not advised to those diagnosed with high blood pressure, stroke, and liver damage. Use of this steroid should be complemented with medical advice if the potential users of this steroid are already using drugs such as Prasterone, Tamoxifen, DHEA, and Androstenedione. Oxandrolone leads to the lowest sulfobromophthalein retention when compared with results from methyltestosterone, norethandrolone, Fluoxymesterone, and methAndriol but users can expect a small increase in the value of liver enzymes. Anavar may shut down Hypothalamic Pituitary Testicular Axis (HPTA) and lead to loss of libido in some cases.

Anavarabuse or overdosing can lead to an increase in the levels of serum bilirubin, aspartate aminotransferase (AST, SGOT) and alanine aminotransferase (ALT, SGPT), inhibition of testicular function, testicular atrophy and oligospermia. It may also result in impotence, chronic priapism, epididymitis, and bladder irritability or acne (especially in females and prepubertal males), retention of serum electrolytes (sodium chloride, potassium, phosphate, and calcium), habituation, excitation, insomnia, depression, and changes in libido. People using Anavar should stop use of this steroid and seek medical advice if they experience side effects, including sudden shortness of breath, chest/jaw/left arm pain, slurred speech, swelling of arms/legs, weakness on one side of the body, coughing up blood, sudden dizziness/fainting, pain/swelling/warmth in the groin/calf, tingling/weakness/numbness in the arms/legs, vision changes, sudden/severe headache.

Medical advice is also recommended after stopping the use of Anavar if users experience abdominal pain, light colored stools, dark colored urine, unusual fatigue, nausea or vomiting, or yellowing of the skin or eyes. Anavar use should be ceased without any wait and medical guidance should be sought if hypercalcemia occurs after stimulation of osteolysis. Long-term abuse of Anavar or use of low-grade Oxandrolone can lead to the suppression of clotting factors II, V, VII, and X, and an increase in prothrombin time. In best interests, Anavar users should undergo regular liver function tests due to the hepatotoxicity associated with the use of 17-alpha-alkylated androgens. Anavar must be stored in a dark container and should always be protected against heat, moisture, sunlight, sources of ignition, children, and pets.
