Protective effects of allicin against stanozolol‐induced cardiotoxicity: Physiological and histopathological evidence in a rabbit model
Allicin significantly mitigates stanozolol-induced cardiotoxicity by reducing oxidative stress, inflammation, lipid dysregulation, and myocardial damage, as evidenced by biochemical and histopathological findings. These results suggest that allicin may serve as a potential therapeutic agent to counteract the cardiovascular risks associated with anabolic steroid use.
