  • Title: Myocardial infarction in a 17-year-old body builder using clenbuterol.
    Author: Kierzkowska B, Stańczyk J, Kasprzak JD.
    Journal: Circ J; 2005 Sep; 69(9):1144-6. PubMed ID: 16127201.
    Abstract:
    A case of non-Q myocardial infarction in a previously healthy 17-year-old body builder, who used clenbuterol, a long-acting beta(2) adrenergic agonist with anabolic and lipolytic effects, is reported. Only 1 case report of myocardial infarction associated with the use of clenbuterol was found in a literature review and that case was, however, associated with anabolic steroid use. This is the first case report to describe myocardial infarction in a young male body builder only taking clenbuterol.
