Adrenosterone, also known as Reichstein's substance G , as well as 11-ketoandrostenedione (11-KA4), 11-oxoandrostenedione (11-OXO), and androst-4-ene-3,11,17-trione, is a

11-ketotestosterone.[2]

Adrenosterone is sold as a

11βHSD1 inhibitor, which is responsible for activation of cortisol from cortisone.[3]
Thus preventing muscle breakdown, and contributing to a majority of its effects.
