: Vancenase(Becloethasone) is a corticosteroid used as an antinflammatory by nasal inhalation. Don't worry about catabolism if taken as prescribed. The benefits to risk ratio are extremely low. The only way catabolism from systemic absorbtion can take place is if you abuse this agent.
Thats what I heard from my MD about all of the inhaled cortisteroids ( asthmacort, vancanese , ect. ) .
However , while taking these drugs ( which I gave 4 wks ) I had no growth or change in BF . As soon as I came off
them I gained LBM and lost BF . I keep impecable stats on myself ( weight , BF , drugs taken , supplements and nutrition
so I no this to be true ( for me ). And by the
way I used them as prescribed ( I didnt abuse them , who would someone who wants to be weak and fat ). The PDR
says that these drugs have no systemic reactions . But to an MD no gain in bodyweight is no reaction , even if you
lost muscle and gained fat . Have you ever had an MD calculate your BF ? Again , just giving my REAL WORLD observations .
Stay Srong
