Oxandrin (Oxandrolone) - Summary

OXANDRIN SUMMARY

OXANDRIN® oral tablets contain 2.5 mg or 10 mg of the anabolic steroid oxandrolone.

Oxandrin is indicated as adjunctive therapy to promote weight gain after weight loss following extensive surgery, chronic infections, or severe trauma, and in some patients who without definite pathophysiologic reasons fail to gain or to maintain normal weight, to offset the protein catabolism associated with prolonged administration of corticosteroids, and for the relief of the bone pain frequently accompanying osteoporosis (See DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION).
