oxandrolone and HIV Wasting Syndrome

oxandrolone has been researched along with HIV Wasting Syndrome in 17 studies

Oxandrolone: A synthetic hormone with anabolic and androgenic properties.

HIV Wasting Syndrome: Involuntary weight loss of greater than 10 percent associated with intermittent or constant fever and chronic diarrhea or fatigue for more than 30 days in the absence of a defined cause other than HIV infection. A constant feature is major muscle wasting with scattered myofiber degeneration. A variety of etiologies, which vary among patients, contributes to this syndrome. (From Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine, 13th ed, p1611).
