SIDE-EFFECTS AND SPECIAL PRECAUTIONS – Virilisation which appears in sensitive women as hoarseness, acne, hirsutism, and increased libido; in prepubertal boys as an increased frequency of erections and phallic enlargement, and in girls as an increase of pubic hair and clitoral hypertrophy. Hoarseness may be the first symptom of vocal change which may end in a long-lasting, sometimes irreversible deepening of the voice. Other adverse reactions may include: – Oligospermia and decreased ejaculatory volume; – Suppression of ovarian activity, atrophy of the breasts and endometrial tissue. – Amenorrhoea and inhibition of spermatogenesis. – Water and salt retention. – Premature epiphyseal closure. – If signs of virilisation develop, treatment should be discontinued. – Increase in nitrogen retention and skeletal weight; – Oedema; – Increased vascularity of the skin; – Increased growth of the bone; – Elderly males may become over-stimulated. Patients with the following conditions should be monitored: – latent or overt cardiac failure, renal dysfunction, hypertension, epilepsy or migraine (or a history of these conditions), since anabolic steroids may induce salt and fluid retention; – diabetes, since anabolic steroids may improve the glucose tolerance and decrease the need for insulin or other antidiabetic dugs; – incomplete statural growth, since anabolic steroids in high dosages may accelerate epiphyseal closure; – skeletal metastases, since anabolic steroids may induce https://powerhorsevet.com
