Stanza 20 Tablet belongs to the class 'anabolic steroids' used in the treatment of hereditary angioedema. It is a rare genetic condition characterized by recurrent episodes of severe swelling (angioedema). The most common areas of the body to develop swelling are the limbs, face, intestinal tract and airway. Minor trauma or stress may trigger an attack, but swelling often occurs without a known trigger.

Stanza 20 Tablet contains stanozolol, a synthetic anabolic steroid (a man-made steroid similar to the naturally occurring steroid testosterone). Stanza 20 Tablet works by reducing the release of a chemical called bradykinin (a peptide that promotes inflammation), which is responsible for the breaking and leakage of blood vessels. This damage to blood vessels leads to sudden accumulation of fluids below the skin, causing swelling (edema) as well as redness. In this way, Stanza 20 Tablet blocks the action of bradykinin and treats angioedema.
