What are SARMs?

Selective Androgen Receptor Modulators (SARMs) are a class of therapeutic compounds that have similar anabolic properties to anabolic steroids, but with reduced androgenic (producing male characteristics) properties. As an example, the androgen receptor is activated by binding androgens, such as testosterone. Unlike anabolic steroids, which bind to androgen receptors in many tissues all over the body, individual SARMs selectively bind androgen receptors in certain tissues, but not in others. 

 

In medical settings, this could be very useful for stimulating specific tissue growth like muscle and bone, while avoiding unwanted side effects in other tissues like the liver or skin. SARMs are being evaluated as a clinical treatment for muscle wasting caused by several diseases, such as osteoporosis, cancer, heart failure, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, end-stage liver disease, end-stage renal disease, and HIV.

 

Are SARMs prohibited on the World Anti-Doping Agency (WADA) Prohibited List?

All SARMs are prohibited at all times (both in and out of competition) for all athletes, from those competing at the highest level of sport to those competing at the recreational level. SARMs are listed in the category of “Other Anabolic Agents” under section S1.2 of the WADA Prohibited List.

 

What if my doctor prescribes a SARM for me?

There are no Food and Drug Administration (FDA)-approved SARMs currently available for prescription. All SARMs are investigational drugs, so it is not legal for your doctor to prescribe a SARM.

 

What are the health risks associated with SARMS?

The FDA has warned consumers about potentially life-threatening side effects from SARMs, including an increased risk of heart attack and stroke.

The long-term effects of using SARMs are unknown.

 SARMs are not legal ingredients for any dietary supplements.
