NCIt definition : An orally active synthetic anabolic steroid and a 17alpha-methylated derivative of
dihydrotestosterone, with androgenic activity. Although oxymetholone has low affinity
for binding the androgen receptor (AR), it strongly activates AR-mediated signaling,
which stimulates both protein synthesis and erythropoietin production. This agent
may stimulate muscle growth, induce hemoglobin production and red blood cell formation,
and promote increased bone density.;
