Typical Dosage Regimen
Purpose Starting Dose Duration (Days)
Bodybuilding / Muscle Gain 20–30 mg per day 4–8 weeks
Strength/Performance Enhancement 10–20 mg per day 3–6 weeks

4. Safety Profile
Category Key Findings Implications
Adverse Effects Mild GI upset, headaches, dizziness; rare hepatotoxicity (reported in a few cases). Generally well tolerated but monitor liver enzymes if symptoms appear.
Drug Interactions Inhibits CYP3A4 (may increase levels of drugs metabolized by this enzyme). Adjust doses for drugs like statins, benzodiazepines, oral contraceptives.
Contraindications Hepatic disease, severe cardiovascular conditions, pregnancy or breastfeeding. Avoid use in these populations; consult healthcare provider.
Toxicity No significant toxicity reported at therapeutic doses; no evidence of cumulative toxicity with repeated use. Safe for intermittent use but long-term safety still under investigation.

4. Conclusion
Efficacy: The review shows consistent improvements in muscle strength and mass across diverse populations, though the magnitude varies by exercise modality.
Safety: No serious adverse events were reported, indicating a favorable safety profile for short‑term or intermittent use. Long‑term effects remain to be fully characterized.
These findings support the potential of isometric resistance training as an effective intervention for enhancing muscular performance and should inform future research aimed at optimizing protocols and establishing long‑term safety data.
