Ive heard that taking antibiotics while on cycle would make taking gear worthless. I am taking it for acne. Is this a good idea or what.     | ||

It really shouldn't effect you an any way besides the side effects from the antibiotic. Which is nill. What are you taking. | ||

There is absolutely no interaction between antibiotics and steriods. I know many people who take antibiotics to help keep acne down during cycles...no one has ever had a problem. | ||

Main hazard is that some antibiotics can cause gyno - add in the gear and watch out! | ||

Apparently all the antibiotics in the cycline family are detremental to protein synthesis. This is due to the interaction with friendly bacteria in the intestinal flora. This may cause a decrease in protein turnover and affect anabolism. | ||

Oh this shit is more liver toxyc than dbol!!! Believe me guys. It was the first time I have experienced problems with my liver. 2tabs of doxycycline are more toxyc than 15dbols in my opinion | ||

Is there proof that doxycycline actually hurts protein synthesis? When you do a search on antibiotics and gear you get a whole bunch of shit that dont make a whole lot of sense. I cant decide one way or the other who is right and wrong. | ||

no doxycyilne will not hurt gear and even if your not on gear it wont mess up gains,it does decrease protein synthesis VERY slighty but not enough to do anything here are some links to read more about. https://www.elitefitness.com/ubb/Archives/Forum1/05-2000/014506.html https://www.elitefitness.com/ubb/Archives/Forum1/10-2000/032446.html [This message has been edited by chillin408 (edited February 15, 2001).] |
