Anavar was introduced as a remedy for wasting of muscles that was involuntary caused by diseases. Today, it’s abused as an Anabolic Steroid by athletes and bodybuilders who want their muscles to look bigger and well-toned. But should its extremely vital use deny patients their right to recovery just because a few people abuse it?
In 1964 while working in Searle Laboratories in the USA, Raphael Pappo became a very happy man. He had created a legacy, a force to reckon with and above all a very important cure. By substituting the second carbon atom for Oxygen, he had just stepped a milestone. He had created a drug he named Oxandrin, short for Oxandrolon derived from the words Oxygen and hormone. And in a USA where diseases were still a big challenge to the wellbeing of Americans and the economy, this was no easy feat for Pappo.
Diseases were then, just like it’s the case today, known to cause involuntary muscle loss that usually fazed doctors and left patients in a disadvantaged condition to fight the disease and other advantageous diseases. Oxandrin came as a big relief since it was able to resuscitate muscle growth and give the patient another chance to fight with the disease.
Oxandrin used in small amounts was able to safely promote tissue growth without interfering with normal testosterone activity or bringing other side effects.
However bad publicity coupled with frail government laws on restriction of drug possession and use saw Oxandrin abused. It became an artificial source of testosterone available to the mass market by the name Anavar. It became widely abused by body builders since it would make muscles bigger and more toned.
The side effects of Anavar were numerous. Apart from increasing liver toxicity, it also interfered with normal production of testosterone. It had also been proven to cause shrinking of the testicles and high concentration of it in the bloodstream can even cause death.
It’s because of this abuse that led the US government to ban its production by Pappo’s Searle Labs in 1989. However, following successful clinical tests it was re-introduced in the market in 1995, although it’s marketing and distribution is highly monitored by the FDA (Food and Drug Administration).
Today, the survival of this revolutionary drug is vital for fighting HIV/AIDs due to the weight loss induced by the lethal virus. HIV which is mostly prevalent in the Sub-Saharan Africa aggravates Marasmus and Kwashiorkor cases especially so in children and has the effects of weight loss characterized by malnourishment. Malaria is also a highly deadly disease that ‘eats’ in to the patient’s muscles as they vomit, diarrhea and lose appetite quickly. These two diseases amplify the need for a remedy that can fight weight loss and steer muscles back to their normal self. Anavar is this remedy
