About

Fluoxymesterone is a cosmetic ingredient used in product formulations. Exercise caution due to limited available safety data.

Fluoxymesterone is a fluorinated synthetic anabolic steroid derived from testosterone, with powerful androgenic effects. It is classified as a Schedule III controlled substance in the US and is subject to similar restrictions in EU member states. Its use in cosmetic products is categorically prohibited under EU cosmetic regulations due to its pharmacological activity and endocrine-disrupting potential.

Known concerns

  • Anabolic steroid — banned from cosmetics in EU
  • Endocrine-disrupting pharmacological activity
  • Controlled substance with severe regulatory penalties for violations
