Stenbolone acetate was first synthesized in the 1960s by the pharmaceutical company Syntex. It was marketed under the brand name Anatrofin and was used in the medical field for a short period of time. However, due to its potential for misuse and side effects, it was discontinued.

Medical Uses[edit | edit source]

Stenbolone acetate was used in the medical field to treat a variety of conditions. It was used to promote muscle growth in patients with muscle wasting diseases, to treat osteoporosis, and to promote weight gain in patients with chronic illnesses.

Like other anabolic steroids, stenbolone acetate can have a number of side effects. These can include acne, hair loss, gynecomastia, and an increased risk of heart disease and liver damage. It can also have psychological effects, such as mood swings and aggression.
