General description

Fluoxymesterone is a white, odorless, crystalline powder, soluble in pyridine
It is an orally-administered synthetic steroid that is about 5-10 times more potent than male steroid, testosterone
It is metabolized in the liver, and less than 5% of this drug is excreted from the body unchanged
Adverse effects of fluoxymesterone include sodium and water retention leading to edema, acne, cardiovascular toxicity, and hepatotoxicity

Applications

Fluoxymesterone has been found to competitively inhibit prolactin or estrogen receptors in tumorigenic breast cells, and is therefore administered in the treatment of breast cancer
In males, this compound is used as a replacement in conditions associated with symptoms of deficiency or absence of endogenous testosterone
