Magnus Pharmaceuticals Stanozolol 10 ml vial (50 mg/ml)

Stanozolol - Winstrol

Winstrol, also known as stanozolol, is a synthetic anabolic steroid mimicking testosterone’s structure. As both an anabolic and androgenic hormone, stanozolol can induce virilizing effects in women.

Although once readily available, finding genuine Winstrol products has become increasingly difficult. Numerous online purchases have fallen victim to counterfeit formulations and contaminants, highlighting the risk associated with sourcing steroids on the internet. The DEA actively regulates websites selling anabolic steroids due to their illegal distribution, and many products analyzed have shown to contain harmless cholesterol-like substances mixed with impurities. Hence, bodybuilders should avoid online purchases where product purity cannot be verified.

Indications

Winstrol is a synthetic derivative of testosterone, originally developed by Winthrop Laboratories in the 1960s. Its primary medical indication is for treating hereditary angioedema and has been explored for managing resistant anemia cases and weight loss in HIV patients. Historically, stanozolol was also used in livestock for weight gain, but the intramuscular form has become scarce due to widespread abuse.

Le dosage en médecine

For livestock, stanozolol is administered intramuscularly to boost weight gain. In humans, it is available in oral tablet form, typically prescribed at 2 mg three times daily for hereditary angioedema, often for 1-3 months, without significant side effects. Anabolic effects generally manifest after 3-4 weeks, intensifying over time; however, higher doses may produce mild androgenic side effects.

Effets secondaires

Like all anabolic steroids, Winstrol may cause certain side effects, although they are infrequently intolerable. Common side effects include:

• jaunisse
• hepatic necrosis
• rare liver cancers
• atrophie testiculaire
• diminution de la libido
• mood changes: depression, insomnia, anger
• nausées, vomissements, diarrhée
• gynécomastie
• l'approfondissement de la voix chez les femmes
• perte de cheveux
• la croissance des cheveux chez les femmes
• rétention d'eau
• elevated blood sugar levels
• reduced HDL cholesterol

While many effects may reverse post-treatment, some virilizing changes could become permanent, particularly for women, necessitating immediate cessation at first sign of virilization. Furthermore, there have been alarming reports of severe liver damage associated with stanozolol use, making regular liver function monitoring imperative.

Contre-indications

Use of Winstrol is contraindicated in individuals with:

• cancer du sein chez l'homme
• cancer de la prostate
• breast cancer and/or hypercalcemia in females
• femmes enceintes
• allergic reactions to steroid drugs

Dosage for Bodybuilders

Stanozolol is particularly popular among bodybuilders and athletes due to its ability to enhance weight gain and exercise performance without water retention. Typically prescribed in doses of 2-6 mg daily for medical purposes, bodybuilders often exceed this recommendation, taking doses 5-15 times higher. Some athletes report using up to 100 mg daily, particularly with the less potent Thai formulations. While oral dosing leads to substantial liver absorption and breakdown, intramuscular injection provides an alternative, commonly at 50 mg/day.

The injectable stanozolol is a milky white solution containing microcrystals, and distinguishing genuine products from fakes can be challenging. Bodybuilders often observe enhanced muscle growth within 3-4 weeks, although the anabolic effects are not sustained indefinitely. Experts generally advise against usage beyond 4-6 weeks due to potential harm associated with higher doses.

Femmes

Females utilize stanozolol primarily for its anabolic potency and minimal androgenic effects, making it less likely to induce virilization. However, prolonged or high-dose use can lead to irreversible masculinization.

Sports

Stanozolol is prohibited in all major sports organizations, and its presence is actively monitored in urine tests for up to 5-7 days following the last dose. Despite the misconception that it clears within two weeks, recent detection advances extend this duration to two months. The prevalent issue lies in the rising number of bodybuilders turning to anabolic steroids influenced by peers.

Cost and Availability

Numerous websites claim to sell Winstrol, but due to DEA oversight, product legitimacy is often questionable. The most common formulation available in the USA is sourced from Thailand. Additionally, smuggled products from Mexico, Russia, and Europe, alongside illicit veterinary supplies, contribute to market availability. The average price ranges from $2 per tablet, with 200 tablets of 2 mg each costing $150-$200. Ensure purchases are made from reputable sources to safeguard quality.

Juridique

Classified as a Schedule III drug under the Controlled Substance Act, Winstrol requires a physician’s prescription for acquisition. Possession, distribution, or sale can lead to severe monetary penalties and legal repercussions. The growing incidence of steroid-related health crises has prompted tighter regulations surrounding its prescription, leaving many doctors hesitant to prescribe it due to fear of abuse and professional repercussions.
