Stanolone

Identification

Generic Name
Stanolone
DrugBank Accession Number
DB02901
Background

A potent androgenic metabolite of testosterone. Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) is generated by a 5-alpha reduction of testosterone. Unlike testosterone, DHT cannot be aromatized to estradiol therefore DHT is considered a pure androgenic steroid.
