Metandienone, also known as methandienone or by the brand name Dianabol, is a synthetic anabolic-androgenic steroid (AAS) originally developed for medical use in conditions like hypogonadism and muscle wasting, but it is now mainly known as an illicit performance-enhancing drug in sports and bodybuilding. It is not approved for use in most countries today due to its significant side effect profile and high abuse potential.
