(ox-AN-dro-lone TRO-keez)
Oxandrolone troches are small lozenges containing oxandrolone, dissolved slowly in the mouth for absorption through the oral mucosa. They provide the same anabolic effect as capsules but with different absorption kinetics. Like capsules, they are controlled substances (Schedule III) with medical indication only. Typical dose: 10–20 mg daily in divided doses. All the same hepatotoxicity risks apply.
Controlled substance
Schedule III; same hepatotoxicity as capsules; medical-only use
Oxandrolone troches carry identical risks and restrictions to capsules. Medical indication, videovisit confirmation, baseline liver function tests, and lipid panel are mandatory. Liver and lipid monitoring required every 4 weeks.
Adults who are prescribed oxandrolone and have trouble swallowing capsules.
Dissolves in the cheek, so part of it bypasses the liver on the first pass.
Do not chew it. The strengths are higher than the capsules: check your label.
prescribed for severe muscle wasting from burns, trauma, disease
liver damage can progress to cirrhosis even at low doses
cholesterol and triglycerides rise significantly
liver, lipids, hematocrit tracked every 4 weeks
Day 1
Videovisit with US-licensed physician: MEDICAL INDICATION ONLY. If indication is present (severe burns, trauma, disease-related muscle wasting), baseline labs ordered (AST, ALT, GGT, lipids, hematocrit, PSA).
1Week 1
Baseline labs reviewed. If liver or lipids are abnormal, anabolic steroid use is contraindicated. If normal, prescription issued with monthly monitoring schedule.
2Month 1
First follow-up: liver function tests (AST, ALT, GGT), lipids, hematocrit. If any are elevated or worsening, steroid use is stopped.
3Month 2–3
Continued monthly labs. Muscle recovery monitored clinically. If recovery is sufficient, steroid use is tapered and stopped.
4Beyond
Anabolic steroids are tapered over weeks, not stopped abruptly (withdrawal risk). Post-cycle labs at 4–6 weeks confirm liver recovery.
5Individual results vary. Benefits reflect what Zepym Health members commonly report to their physician at check-ins; they are not the results of a clinical trial.
This is the starting dose the pharmacy prints on the label. Your physician sets yours and adjusts it with you.

Once a day
Oxandrolone absorption through oral mucosa bypasses first-pass liver metabolism initially, but the same hepatotoxic effects apply with chronic use.
Troches provide the same anabolic potency as capsules but may have different kinetics of absorption and metabolic clearance.
Learn moreAnabolic steroids (oxandrolone, stanozolol, nandrolone) are controlled substances (Schedule III) with NO cosmetic approval. They are prescribed ONLY for severe medical muscle wasting (burns, trauma, specific diseases). Off-label or cosmetic use is illegal and carries severe health risks: hepatotoxicity (liver damage), lipid dysfunction (elevated cholesterol/triglycerides), hypertension, mood changes, fertility loss, and increased clotting risk. Liver damage can progress to cirrhosis. Baseline liver function tests and lipid panels are mandatory before any use; monthly monitoring is required. Any physician-patient encounter for anabolic steroids must include videovisit confirmation of medical indication and documented labs. Tell your physician about liver disease, high cholesterol, clotting disorders, or cardiac risk. Stop immediately and seek care for jaundice, dark urine, severe abdominal pain, chest pain, leg swelling, or signs of stroke.

Yes. The law requires a live video visit with the physician before it can be prescribed.
No. Both carry identical anabolic effects and hepatotoxicity risks. The only difference is the route of absorption (oral mucosa vs. stomach). Medical indication, liver monitoring, and all restrictions are the same for both.
No. Anabolic steroids are controlled (Schedule III) with NO FDA approval for cosmetic muscle. Any cosmetic use is illegal and carries legal penalties and severe health risks (liver damage, lipid dysfunction, fertility loss). Medical indication must be documented via videovisit.
Anabolic steroids damage the liver and lipid metabolism within weeks. Monthly liver function tests (AST, ALT, GGT) and lipids detect damage early. If liver enzymes rise significantly or lipids worsen, the steroid is stopped immediately to prevent cirrhosis.
Duration depends on medical indication. Typically, 4–12 weeks for acute muscle wasting (burns, trauma), with dose tapering and cessation over 2–4 weeks. Long-term use increases liver damage and cirrhosis risk. Always under physician supervision with monthly monitoring.
