Nandrolone Decanoate
別名: Deca-Durabolin
- **Controlled Substance:** Because of the potential for abuse of anabolic steroids by humans, this agent is a **controlled (C-III) drug**. It must be kept in a secure area and strictly out of the reach of children. - **Behavioral Changes:** Watch your pet for any signs of increased aggression or other behavioral changes, which can be a side effect of steroid hormones. - **Physical Monitoring:** Monitor your pet for signs of fluid retention (swelling) or jaundice (yellowing of the eyes/gums), which could indicate liver stress. - **Follow-up:** Regular veterinary visits and blood tests are required to monitor your pet's red blood cell count and liver function while on this medication.
劑量必須由獸醫按你寵物的個別情況決定。切勿在沒有獸醫指導下給予人類藥物或其他寵物的處方藥。

- > **Pregnancy Warning:** FDA Category X. Anabolic steroids can cause masculinization of the fetus. The risk of use in pregnant animals clearly outweighs any possible benefit. * **Nursing Mothers:** It is unknown if anabolic steroids are excreted in maternal milk. Due to the potential for serious adverse reactions in nursing offspring, a decision should be made to either discontinue nursing or discontinue the drug. * **Laboratory Alterations:** Can decrease protein-bound iodine (PBI), thyroxine-binding globulin, and total T4 concentrations while increasing resin uptake of T3 and T4 (free thyroid hormones remain unaltered). Can decrease creatinine and creatine excretion, increase 17-ketosteroid excretion, alter blood glucose, suppress clotting factors (II, V, VII, X), and elevate liver enzymes (AST, ALT, ALP, bilirubin).
藥物相互作用
- Anticoagulants (e.g., warfarin): Anabolic agents may potentiate the effects of anticoagulants; monitoring of INR and dosage adjustment of the anticoagulant are recommended.
- Corticosteroids, ACTH: Anabolics may enhance the edema that can be associated with ACTH or adrenal steroid therapy.
- Insulin: Anabolics may decrease blood glucose and decrease insulin requirements; diabetic patients may need dosage adjustments.
