Description
Oxydrolone, also known as Oxymetholone (Anadrol), is a powerful oral anabolic steroid used in bodybuilding for its ability to promote rapid muscle mass and strength gains. It is often used during bulking cycles, where the primary goal is to build as much muscle as possible in a short time.
Benefits of Oxydrolone
- Rapid muscle mass gains
- Increased strength and power
- Improved protein synthesis
- Enhanced recovery after intense workouts
Common Dosage and Use
Oxydrolone is typically taken orally at a dosage of 50-100mg per day for men. Cycles usually last between 4-6 weeks due to its high potential for liver toxicity. It is not recommended for women because of its strong androgenic effects.
Side Effects
Potential side effects include:
- Liver toxicity
- Water retention and bloating
- Gynecomastia (development of breast tissue in men)
- Suppression of natural testosterone production
- Acne and oily skin
Important: Oxydrolone should be used with caution due to its potential liver toxicity. Post-cycle therapy (PCT) is necessary to restore natural hormone levels after use.
