Greetings!

None of the drugs are safe to build up muscles!so better to go natural to gain muscles than hitting up drugs! with respect to oxymetholone the side effects and adverse effects are stated below

Oxymetholone may cause serious liver and spleen problems, including the formation of blood-filled cysts within the liver and spleen and the formation of liver tumors. Liver failure or severe internal bleeding may sometimes result. If you develop sudden dizziness, weakness, fainting, nausea, vomiting, stomach pain, dark urine, or yellowing of the skin or eyes, contact your doctor immediately.

Oxymetholone may cause changes in lipid levels in the blood, which can affect your risk of developing blockages in the arteries (atherosclerosis) or coronary artery disease
