5aohp Overview

5aOHP is a prohormone, which means it serves as a precursor to hormones like testosterone or estrogen. It's designed to be converted into these hormones in the body, potentially influencing muscle growth, performance, or other aspects of physiology. This conversion typically involves enzymatic processes that modify the structure of the prohormone to produce the desired hormone or its derivatives. Due to its potential to affect hormone levels, 5aOHP is often used in fitness and bodybuilding communities to enhance muscle development or performance.

Verteporfin Overview

  • Verteporfin injection is used in combination with photodynamic therapy (PDT; treatment with a laser light) to treat abnormal growth of leaky blood vessels in the eye caused by wet age-related macular degeneration (AMD; an ongoing disease of the eye that causes loss of the ability to see straight ahead and may make it more difficult to read, drive, or perform other daily activities), pathologic myopia (a serious form of nearsightedness that worsens with time), or histoplasmosis (a fungal infection) of the eye. Verteporfin is in a class of medications called photosensitizing agents. When verteporfin is activated by light, it closes up the leaking blood vessels.
