Medical Uses

NPP has been used mainly in the treatment of advanced breast cancer in women and as an adjunct therapy for the treatment of senile or postmenopausal osteoporosis in women. Historically, it has also had a variety of other uses. Because of its reduced androgenic effects, the drug has not generally been used in androgen replacement therapy for androgen deficiency in men and has instead been used for solely for anabolic indications. However, nandrolone esters have more recently been proposed for the treatment of androgen deficiency in men due to favorable properties including their high ratio of anabolic to androgenic effects and consequent much lower risk of prostate enlargement, prostate cancer, and scalp hair loss relative to testosterone.

Common Hormone

Nandrolone Phenylpropionate is a commonly used hormone for promoting the synthesis metabolism of protein. It is produced by the esterification reaction between 19-nor-testosterone and phenylpropionyl chloride. Its dosage type is oily injection through intramuscular injection for administration. It can promote the protein synthesis as well as the savings of calcium, phosphorus, and potassium for treating severe osteoporosis, premature children, growth retardation, dwarfism, and severe malnutrition; it can also be used for inoperable breast cancer, dysfunctional uterine bleeding, and uterine muscle aneurysm. However, this product has a slightly masculine role which is not suitable for not long-term use; patients of prostate cancer, hypertension and pregnant women is disabled; patients of heart, liver and kidney dysfunction should take with caution.

Properties

It is white or white crystalline powder with special smell. Its melting point is 9599 C and relative density is 1.14g/cm3, [] D20 + 48+ 51 C (dioxane). It is soluble in alcohol, tea oil, slightly soluble in vegetable oil but almost insoluble in water.

Pharmacological Effects

This anabolic effect of this product is 12 times as high as testosterone propionate but has a relative small androgenic which is only 1.5 times as high as the latter one. It can promote protein synthesis and inhibit protein gluconeogenesis, and can also promote the deposition of calcium and phosphorus and the growth of bone tissue growth. Its effect of intramuscular injection can be maintained for 1 to 2 weeks.

Pharmacokinetics

Metabolism: hormone is mainly excreted in the urine with most part existing in the form of conjugate. However, the hormones in feces are mainly excreted in its free from while the major metabolized product of Nandrolone Phenylpropionate and nor-androstenediol in the urine is mainly 19-nor-androsterone (19-NA).

Indications

In the field of dermatology, it is mainly applied as a adjuvant treatment method for treating the negative nitrogen balance caused by high dose of corticosteroids, while increasing the protein in food; it is also used for treating exfoliative dermatitis, pemphigus, dermatomyositis, scleroderma, and senile pruritus.
