摘要:
Studies were undertaken to determine the anabolic activity of 19-nortestosterone 17-(4′- methyl-bicyclo[2.2.2] oct -2′- ene -1′- carboxylate) (nandrolone cyclotate) in 12 young female volunteers. The nitrogen retention induced by one im injection of nandrolone cyclotate was compared in random cross-over tests with the effect of methandienone (methandrostenolone) administered at an oral dose of 5 mg per day for 6 days. The balance studies indicated:Nandrolone cyclotate exerted a significant nitrogen retaining effect in all eight subjects receiving a 50 or 100 mg dose. The potency and duration of the nitrogen-retaining activity exerted by nandrolone cyclotate showed a dose-response correlation. One injection of 100 mg nandrolone cyclotate produced an average retention of 1.6 g of nitrogen per day over a period of 23.5 days, resulting in an average total retention of 37.0 g of nitrogen, equivalent to about 230 g of *** were no systemic side effects and no signs of organ toxicity.
