Oxymetholone

Subname: Oxymetholone 25mg

Contents: 50 mg/tab of oxymetholone (60 tablets)

Chemical name: 2-hydroxymethylene-17a-methyl-dihydrotestosterone 4,S-dihydro-2-hydroxymethylene-17-alpha-methyltestosterone 17aIpha-methyl-2-hydroxymethylene-17-hydroxy-SaIpha-androstan-3-one
Oxymetholone is a potent oral anabolic steroid derived from dihydrotestosterone. More specifically, it is a close cousin of methyldihydrotestosterone (mestanolone), differing only by the addition of a 2-hydroxymethylene group.
This creates a steroid with considerably different activity than mestanolone, however, so much so that it is very difficult to make comparisons between the two.
To begin with, oxymetholone is a very potent anabolic hormone. Dihydrotestosterone and mestanolone are both very weak in this regard, due to the fact that these molecules are not very stable in the highly enzymatic (3-alpha-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenase) environment of muscle tissue.
Oxymetholone remains highly active here, as it is reported in standard animal tests to demonstrate significantly greater anabolic activity than testosterone or methyltestosterone. Such tests suggest that the androgenicity of oxymetholone is also very low (1/4 to 1/7 of its anabolic activity), although real world results in humans suggest that it is decidedly superior to this. Oxymetholone is considered by many to be the most powerful steroid commercially available. A steroid novice trying this agent is likely to gain 20 to 30 pounds of massive bulk, and this can usually be achieved within 6 weeks of use. This steroid produces a lot of water retention, so a good portion of this gain will be water weight.
This usually has little effect on the user, who may feel very large and strong while taking oxymetholone. While the soft appearance resulting from water retention is often unattractive, it can greatly aid in the level of size and strength gained. The muscle becomes fuller, contracts better, and receives a level of protection in the form of extra water retained in and around the connective tissues.

Side effects: Oxymetholone is a highly estrogenic steroid. Gynecomastia is often a concern during treatment and can occur quite early in the cycle (particularly when higher doses are used). At the same time, both subcutaneous water retention and fat levels increase. Androgenic side effects are still possible with this substance.

Administration: An effective oral daily dosage would be in the range of 25-150 mg, taken in cycles lasting no longer than 6-8 weeks to minimize hepatotoxicity.
