Magnum Oxandro 10

What is Magnum Oxandro 10 by Magnum Pharmaceuticals?

Magnum Oxandro 10 is an oral oxandrolone product from Magnum Pharmaceuticals, with 10 mg of the hormone in every tablet. Oxandrolone, widely referred to as Anavar, is an anabolic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone and modified for oral use. Of all the commonly used steroids, it is the one most often discussed in connection with female athletes, because its androgenic side is comparatively weak.

Oxandrolone does not aromatize into estrogen and is not a substrate for the enzyme that produces DHT, since it already belongs to the DHT family. Its structure includes an oxygen atom in place of a carbon in the A-ring and a 17-alpha methyl group, which allows it to be absorbed from the gut without being inactivated by the liver.

Effects for men and women

The compound promotes protein synthesis and nitrogen retention, helps muscles hold on to tissue when food intake is restricted, and has been used clinically to rebuild weight in patients recovering from serious illness. In bodybuilding and fitness, Magnum Oxandro 10 is chosen for a lean, defined look rather than size. Many men add it to the final weeks of a cutting cycle for hardness and strength. For women the picture is different: oxandrolone is one of very few anabolic agents where low doses can produce visible muscle tone and strength with a lower, though not absent, risk of masculinizing effects.

In both cases the gains tend to be modest but dry, so less of the result disappears when the course ends than with compounds that cause water retention.

How it is used

In common practice, women report daily amounts of around 5 to 10 mg, which with this product means half a tablet to one tablet, while men report 20 to 50 mg spread over the day. Courses usually run for six to eight weeks, and women in particular tend to keep them short. These figures are common reports only, not a prescription. The dose and duration must be agreed with a qualified medical professional, who can monitor lipids, liver values and, for women, early signs of virilization.

Side effects to watch for

• Women: deepening of the voice, irregular periods, increased facial or body hair and enlargement of the clitoris; some of these changes can be permanent.
• Men: suppression of natural testosterone production, acne and hair loss in those predisposed.
• Everyone: a significant drop in HDL cholesterol, elevated liver enzymes, and occasionally nausea or changes in libido.

Oxandrolone must not be used in pregnancy or by anyone with liver disease, kidney disease, heart disease, high calcium levels or hormone-dependent cancers.
