OXYMETHOLONE 50 Aslan Pharma USA

Important Warning: What You Need to Know About This Product

Formulation Information:

• Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient: Oxymetholone (Trade Names: Anadrol, Anapolon, Oxy)¹

• Pack: 50 Tabs x 50 Mg

• Form: Oral

• Classification: Anabolic Androgenic Steroid (AAS), C17-alpha Alkylated, DHT-Derived²

What is Oxymetholone (Anadrol)?

Oxymetholone is one of the most powerful and fast-acting anabolic steroids available, derived from Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) with a structural modification (the addition of a 2-hydroxymethylene group).³ It is highly preferred by bodybuilders seeking the highest level of anabolic action for rapid, significant mass and strength gains.

Therapeutic Uses: Historically, Oxymetholone has been utilized in medicine to treat severe cases of anemia due to its ability to significantly increase red blood cell count. It has also been successfully used to combat AIDS and other muscle-wasting diseases.⁴

Key Properties and Effects

• Mass and Strength: Provides a dramatic boost in energy and raw strength, leading to rapid increases in body weight.

• Red Blood Cell Count: Significantly increases red blood cells, enhancing oxygen delivery to muscles and promoting faster recovery.

• Appetite Stimulation: The drug is known to increase appetite, further supporting mass gain.⁵

• Stack Versatility: While often used alone for bulking, it is sometimes stacked in cutting cycles with compounds like Primobolan, Testosterone Propionate, or Anavar, though this is less common due to its water retention effects.

 Health and Safety Considerations

The Most Important Information Before Use:

Oxymetholone carries one of the highest risks of hepatotoxicity (liver damage) among oral steroids.

MANDATORY MEDICAL CONSULTATION: Due to its extreme potency and significant health risks, especially to the liver, its use must be approached with the utmost caution. Consulting a doctor and strict monitoring of liver function (AST/ALT) are non-negotiable requirements before and during use.

Usage and Dosage

Anadrol is typically used for very short cycles due to its high toxicity.

• Dosage: The maximum recommended dosage is 50 mg per day. Using higher dosages significantly increases the risk of severe health problems, particularly liver-related issues.

• Duration: It is commonly used for only 4 weeks, with a maximum duration of 6 weeks. The recommendation against 8-week cycles is based on the priority of health over muscle gain, given the severe liver strain.

Side Effects

Oxymetholone has several pronounced side effects that must be anticipated and managed:

• Hepatotoxicity (Liver Toxicity): This is the primary concern. As a C17-alpha alkylated compound, it severely strains the liver. Adherence to recommended dosages (50 mg daily) and duration (maximum 6 weeks) is crucial to minimize this risk.

• Water Retention: One of the most common side effects is significant water retention, which can lead to a "soft-looking physique" and increased blood pressure.

• Gynecomastia ("Big Boobs Illness"):⁶ Despite being a DHT derivative, Anadrol can indirectly cause severe estrogenic side effects, including gynecomastia. This is thought to be due to its unique structure stimulating the estrogen receptor, or acting as a progestin.

  • Management: To mitigate gynecomastia, users often need to take anti-estrogens such as Nolvadex, Tamoxifen, or Clomid throughout the cycle.

• Cardiovascular Strain: It has a highly negative impact on cholesterol profiles.

 Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1: Why does Anadrol, a DHT derivative, cause gynecomastia?

Unlike many DHT derivatives (like Masteron or Winstrol) that do not aromatize, Oxymetholone is unique. While it does not directly convert to estrogen, its structure is believed to either directly stimulate the estrogen receptor or elevate estrogen-like activity through other pathways. Therefore, it requires the same anti-estrogen protection (SERMs like Nolvadex) as highly aromatizing steroids.

Q2: What kind of muscle gains should be expected with Anadrol?

Anadrol is famous for causing rapid and massive gains in both weight and strength within the first few weeks of use. However, a significant portion of the weight gain is usually due to the extreme water retention it causes, which will quickly diminish once the drug is stopped. The high anabolic action also ensures substantial lean muscle tissue is built underneath this water weight.

Q3: Why is the cycle length limited to 4-6 weeks?

The cycle length is strictly limited due to the severe hepatotoxicity (liver toxicity) associated with this compound. Oxymetholone is one of the most taxing oral steroids on the liver. Limiting the use to 6 weeks maximum is an essential measure to allow the liver adequate time to recover and avoid long-term damage.

Q4: Can Anadrol be used for cutting?

While its primary role is bulking due to the massive weight and water gain, Anadrol is occasionally incorporated into the beginning of a cutting cycle ("kickstarting") to leverage its massive strength boost and muscle preservation properties early on. However, its significant water retention effect makes it a poor choice for achieving the "dry" and "ripped" physique desired for contest preparation.
