Omnadren 250 is an androgenic medication used when it is necessary to increase testosterone levels in men and women in the treatment of various diseases caused by its deficiency.
Pharmacological action of Omnadren
The active components of Omnadren are a mixture of different types of testosterone, which plays an important role in the body. Testosterone:
- For men, it stimulates spermatogenesis, and is also necessary for the constitution of the body, the formation of seminal vesicles and sexual behavior, the prostate gland, testicles and the development of sexual characteristics (secondary and tertiary). In addition, it reduces the severity of the negative manifestations of male menopause;
- For women, it suppresses the function of the mammary glands (being an antagonist of female sex hormones), and also helps to inhibit the gonadotropic function of the pituitary gland.
Testosterone has a pronounced anabolic effect, enhancing calcium fixation in the bones, stimulating protein synthesis and the formation of erythropoietin in the kidneys, increasing muscle mass and increasing hemoglobin levels in the blood.
The testosterone esters that are part of Omnadren have different rates of absorption and excretion. This contributes to the rapid development of the therapeutic effect and its long-term effect (up to a month) after a single injection.
