AIDS patients and AAS

[Varanerc]

I was wondering if roids are a really good option for hiv people for muscle wasting, as I understand once you stop taking steroids gains disappear , so would that work on hiv patients?
do they have to be on AAS for most their lives?

 

[spursmad]

Steroids are used in muscle wasting conditions like aids but probably not enough to build big muscles

Yes, this is when doctors will prescribe AAS. You can also use SARMs like Ostarine for muscle preservation.

HGH is routinely prescribed for them

the sad thing is many will sell their HGH to bodybuilders and pocket the cash and let their health go to shit.

Most AIDS patients are on a very low dosage of steroid and HGH for the rest of their life to prevent muscle loss and improve healing.

Truthfully though, they would be better off taking ostarine instead -> https://www.evolutionary.org/ostarine-mk-2866

Ostarine was developed for that exact purpose. It was developed to prevent muscle loss in people with muscle wasting diseases like HIV and cancer.
