Hi everyone,
I’ve been thinking about taking on a new project: creating an injectable oxandrolone solution at 20 mg/mL. I wanted to run my initial idea and recipe by the community "filter" before moving forward to ensure it’s viable, safe, and optimized. This is purely in the planning phase for now, and I won’t start until I’ve gathered enough information, feedback and made necessary adjustments based on the community expertise.
The reason why i'm interested in an injectable form of oxandrolone is because I hope is likely to have a reduced impact on the lipid panel compared to the oral form due to differences in metabolism:
Oral oxandrolone undergoes first-pass metabolism in the liver. This contributes to its significant effect on lowering HDL ("good cholesterol") and raising LDL ("bad cholesterol").This hepatotoxicity is a major reason oral oxandrolone has a more pronounced impact on lipids.
Injectable form bypass the liver during initial metabolism, potentially reducing the strain on hepatic function and lipid metabolism.
The direct impact on lipid profiles may be milder.
If the community agrees this is a worthwhile project and provides some guidance, I’d love to proceed under your advice.
Proposed Recipe
For 100 mL of solution at 20 mg/mL:
Oxandrolone raw: 2,000 mg (2 g)
MIG 812: Primary solvent (~40–50 mL initially)
Benzyl Alcohol (BA): 1% (1 mL)
Benzyl Benzoate (BB): 15% (15 mL)
MCT Oil: Carrier oil to adjust the total volume to 100 mL
Planned Steps
Weigh 2 g of oxandrolone powder and add to 40 mL of MIG 812, stirring continuously.
Apply gentle heat (below 40°C) if necessary to help dissolve the powder.
Mix in 1 mL of BA as a preservative and 15 mL of BB to enhance solubility and stability.
Gradually add MCT oil while stirring until the total solution reaches 100 mL.
Filter the solution through a 0.22-micron sterile syringe filter into sterile vials.
Are there any critical improvements or changes you’d suggest for this recipe?
If this project gets a green light from the community and the recipe is refined with your help, I’d love to document the entire process and share results here. My goal is to learn and ensure the final product is safe, effective, and aligned with best practices.
I want to clarify that I’m open to constructive criticism and am here to learn from the experienced brewers in this community. My goal is to have an informed and productive discussion. If at any point I come across in pointless or nonsensical debates, I sincerely apologize in advance—that’s absolutely not my intention.
Thanks in advance !
