| Message: | Anadrol, commonly known as Anadrol due to the first manufactured name of the steroid is
derived from Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) and is a 17-Alpha-Alkylated steroid (17-aa.) The 17-aa
alteration simply means the steroid has been chemically altered at the 17th carbon position to
allow it to survive ingestion by surviving the first pass through the liver; without the 17-aa
alteration the steroid would be destroyed before it ever entered the blood stream. The good news
is by this alteration we are able to absorb a usable and powerful anabolic steroid; the bad news is this
is toxic to the liver. As most oral steroids are 17-aa the toxic effect can be quite high but as it
pertains to Anadrol this effect is more pronounced making it one of the most liver toxic steroids
on the market.
Once Anadrol enters the body, which is allowed by its 17-aa form it will become active very
quickly and the effects will be dramatically fast. As we understand anabolic androgenic steroids the
half-life associated with them largely affects the initial potency; Anadrol has a very short
half-life of approximately 8.5 hours making the steroids activity almost instant but with a very short
active duration. For this reason many athletes will split their Anadrol dose into two doses
per day in order to keep a peak amount of the steroid active in their system around the clock during
periods of use. However, one dose per day will be enough to keep an active amount of the steroid
functioning in the body, although not at peak levels. |
