RoutesOral,
IntramuscularStanozolol, commonly sold under the name
Winstrol (oral) and
Winstrol Depot (intra-muscular), was developed by
Winthrop Laboratories in
1962. It is a synthetic
anabolic steroid derived from
testosterone, and has been approved by the
FDA for human use.
Unlike most injectable anabolic steroids, Stanozolol is not esterified and is sold as an
aqueous suspension, or in oral tablet form. The drug has a large oral
bioavailability, due to a C17 α-alkylation which allows the hormone to survive first pass
liver metabolism when ingested. It is because of this that Stanozolol is also sold in
tablet form.
Stanozolol is usually considered a safer choice for female bodybuilders in that it rewards a great amount of anabolism for a small androgenic effect, however virilization and masculinization are still very common, even at low doses.
Stanozolol has been used on both animal and human patients for a number of conditions. In humans, it has been demonstrated to be successful in treating
anaemia and
hereditary angioedema.
Veterinarians may prescribe the drug to improve muscle growth, red blood cell production, increase bone density and stimulate the appetite of debilitated or weakened animals.
Stanozolol is one of the
anabolic steroids commonly used as an ergogenic aid and is banned from use in sports competition under the auspices of the
International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF) and many other sporting bodies.
Stanozolol has also been used in US
horse racing[1].

Seized stanozolol tablets.
In
bodybuilding stanozolol is typically "
stacked" with other testosterone-based anabolic steroids. Stanozolol is liked by many due to the fact it causes strength increases without excess weight-gain, promotes increases in
vascularity,[
citation needed] and will not convert to
estrogen. It also does not cause excess water retention, and even sometimes is thought to have a
diuretic effect on the body.[

Stanozolol is commonly used by athletes and
bodybuilders alike to lose fat while retaining lean body mass. It is usually used in a "cutting cycle", to help preserve lean body mass while metabolizing
adipose, although it has not been proven conclusively that it has any special fat-burning properties.
It is presented most commonly as a 50 mg/mL injection or a 5 mg tablet. However, recently 100 mg/mL versions have become available. A common dosage can be 10-25 mg/day orally and 25-50 mg daily injected, with optimal results usually seen at 50 mg/day. It is reduced to micrometer particles in aqueous suspension and does not have a typical
elimination half-life. Authentic stanozolol can easily be seen, because it will separate in its container if left undisturbed for a number of hours (the micronized crystal will fall to the bottom, and the water
suspension will rise to the top). It has a white, milky color.
An alternative to stanozolol is
Furazabol. Furazabol's effects are virtually identical to stanozolol except that instead of having an extremely adverse effect on cholesterol values, Furazabol actually improves a person's blood lipid profile (at therapeutic doses, not performance enhancing ones).[
citation needed] Sold under the trade name Mitolan, Furazabol is a standard treatment in Japan for
hyperlipemia.
[edit] Law
In the United States, like other anabolic steroids, stanozolol is classified as a controlled substance under federal regulation. In New York, the state legislature classifies anabolic steroids under DEA Schedule III.
