I'm hoping that since you're from the land of Omna you could lend me your expertise.

I recently got a bunch of Omnas w/ Cyrillic writing on the amps. They came in the blue box, Cyrillic on front, ingredients listed on back of box in Latin. The box was for the new Omnas, but the source had packed them 15 to the box (5 normally), which leads me to believe that these are the old variety repackaged. Most of them look fine, stenciled Cyrillic in grey/black w/ 5 digit lot no. on bottom, which seems to be tied to date of manufacture (last 2 digits are 97), but 2 of them looked odd, much darker stenciling and the Jelfa name wasn't in the exact same place relative to the Cyrillic Omnadren name as on the others. The others passed the freezer test, these 2 did not. I don't think they're blanks, and, since I am at the tail end of a Sust/EQ cycle (will do taper on EQ alone over next couple weeks), I decided to go ahead and whack them today. The amps snapped nicely, which to me is usually an indication that it's legit, tasted like more than just oil, the amount was right, some sting at inj. site etc. My question is: do you know what these might be? Could someone simply have restenciled another Jelfa product to fill up an order? I'm thinking that these might be Depot--how likely do you think this is? I'm not upset that these got thru--I can get more of the others--I'm just puzzled and would like to solve this mystery if possible. Any help you could give me would be greatly appreciated. Sorry this is so long-winded, but I wanted to gove all pertinent information. Anyone else's input appreciated as well.

To tell you the truth i've never seen the omnas for export to russia. I know that they conme in ablue box and thats it. I would imagine that since jelfa changed the labeling for its domestic products, it also did to those for export. I would stick with the papar labels when buying omnas. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. As far as counterfeited omnas, then you have three choices
a) enanthate 100mg
b) propionate 25mg
c) prop 10mg!!!

Thanks for the response. It doesn't burn like prop, so I'm going to hope that it is the Jelfa depot (Prolongatum). If it is, I'll have to wait a few days to feel it kick in. If I don't explode between now and then, I'll bump this and let everyone know. It could be useful to someone out there.

I guess the prolongantum (enanthate) would be the best. Although i doubt 10mg of prop would burn much.

I'm bumping this in case someone ran into the same problem. I'm pretty sure they're enanthate. Thanks again for your help.
