Oxanabolic tabs (Asia pharma)
Generic Name:
oxandrolone
Description:
Oxyanabolic tabs, aka
Anavar, Oxandrin unlike most oral
steroids, which are Class II steroids giving most of their anabolic
effect by means other than the androgen receptor (AR), it seems that
oxandrolone probably does have good binding to the AR, and is therefore
a Class I steroid, while having little other effect. By itself it is
considered to be a weak anabolic.
Partly this is due to its apparent lack of non-AR-mediated activity.
This can be corrected of course by stacking with a Class II steroid such
as Dianabol, Anadrol,
4-AD, or nor-4-AD: the latter two steroids require high blood levels,
which are not obtained by oral use of the powders.
The other part of the reason for this is that bodybuilders make
unfortunate and unreasonable comparisons when judging anabolic steroids.
If say 8 tablets per day does little, then the drug is pronounced
useless or weak by the user. But that is only 20 mg/day, or 140 mg/week.
Does 140 mg/week testosterone give much results? No. Few anabolic
steroids give dramatic results at that dose. Per milligram the potency
is reasonable, but each individual tablet is weak because the dosage is
small.
Because of its high price, very few bodybuilders have taken large doses
of oxandrolone. There is a single case in the medical literature where
it is reported that a competitive athlete self-administered 150 mg
oxandrolone per day with remarkable gains. This is of uncertain
credibility because unless urinalysis was done to verify that no other
steroids were taken, there is no way to be certain that the athlete did
not actually take more drugs than he reported. In any case, at current
prices, only the quite wealthy could afford such a dose. We have tried
150 mg/day and considered it somewhat effective, but not dramatically
so, and not a preferred regimen.
Oxandrolone does not aromatize or convert to DHT, and has a longer half
life than Dianabol - 8 hours vs. 4 hours. Thus, a moderate dose taken in
the morning is largely out of the system by night, yet supplies
reasonable levels of androgen during the day and early evening.
Oxandrolone shares the liver toxicity problems common to 17-alkylated
steroids. At one time it was thought that it did not, but both clinical
and practical experience with Oxandrin has shown that at doses of 40
mg/day and higher, liver toxicity is indeed an issue with prolonged use.
Primobolan, I believe, should be
considered a superior compound, offering the same activity at (usually)
a lower price and without the alkylated-toxicity issue.
Oxandrolone is the chemical name of active ingredient in Oxandrin and
Anavar.
Package:
100 tablets, 10 mg per tablet.
