:Megestrol
Description:
Megestrol, with the CAS number 3562-63-8, is a synthetic progestin, which is a type of hormone that mimics the effects of progesterone, a natural hormone involved in the menstrual cycle and pregnancy. It is primarily used in medical settings to treat conditions such as anorexia, cachexia, and weight loss in patients with chronic illnesses, as well as in certain types of cancer, particularly breast and endometrial cancers. Megestrol is characterized by its ability to stimulate appetite and promote weight gain. Chemically, it is a derivative of 17α-hydroxyprogesterone and features a steroid structure, which is typical of progestins. The substance is usually administered in the form of an oral suspension or tablet. Its pharmacological effects include the modulation of various physiological processes, such as the regulation of the menstrual cycle and the maintenance of pregnancy. As with any medication, megestrol can have side effects, and its use should be monitored by healthcare professionals.

CAS:Controlled Product17-Hydroxy-6-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione is a progestin that is used as an antiretroviral agent in the treatment of HIV. It has been shown to be effective for chronic cough and cancer. 17-Hydroxy-6-methylpregna-4,6-diene-3,20-dione can be used for the treatment of infectious diseases such as HIV by inhibiting viral replication and reducing the amount of virus in the blood. This drug can also be used to treat some cancers and solid tumours. It has been shown to have long term efficacy in these conditions due to its ability to block cell division. 17 hydroxy pregnane 4,6 diene 3,20 dione is also used in the treatment of geriatric patients with chronic illnesses or who are immunocompromised due to its ability to stimulate appetite.Formula:C22H30O3Purity:Min. 98 Area-%Color and Shape:White Off-White PowderMolecular weight:342.47 g/mol
