Ok, everyone knows about the toxicity of these bad boys, here's my confusion. First, you hear people saying halo is much harsher that winstrol. why? i don't know. Second, you hear people saying abombs are much harsher that dbol. why? i don't know. Sure there's a difference if you compare their pill mg's, but that's not what i'm talking about. What i'm saying is that if you take 50mg of anadrol or 50 mg of halo or 50mg of dbol or 50 mg of winny, wouldn't they all be the same as far as toxicity goes? I haven't been able to get a clear answer to this in my years of study. I'm no chemist, but wouldn't 17aa equal 17aa. Need some educated bros to clear this up for me. -MURDER ALL SCAMMERS- | ||

Well, there are different aspects you must consider when talking about the possible side effects associated with different drugs. In the past I posted a study proving that liver damage was NOT affected when equal amounts of different 17aa compounds were administered. This would piont to them all having the SAME toxicity or close to it, to the liver. However, 17aa compounds obviously do more than just survive the digestive process. Once you get past the issue of liver values, you can begin to think about how the drug interacts with your body. Winstrol dosen't induce gyno, water retention, or many other sides effects. You might be able to use 150mgs of Winny a day, but if you were to use 150mgs of Anadrol a day, you MIGHT experience more harsh side effects, such as water retention, gyno, acne, blood pressure increases, fatty acid counts, yada yada. I have spent much time defending anadrol, but not everyone is the same. This is where the misconception of different levels of toxicity comes from. Yes Anadrol is the only drug partially linked to cancer, but the study didn't test winstrol, dbol, or halo at 3 grams per kg of bodyweight either! | ||

You and I may be the only two that agree on this. I have argued this to the death, i understand about the different side effects that each causes, meaning some are worst that others, but as far as liver toxicity goes, i have to say it will be the same, until i am shown wrong. Not arguing here with anyone, just want some more clarification. | ||

How about this one, bro... Anavar is a 17aa that has actually been proven to IMPROVE liver function in labratory tests! I dont' think it has anything to do with the fact that it's 17aa. It's the way the chemicals themselves tax the liver enzymes. Therefore some could be VERY hard on the liver but others not. Just forget about the 17aa... that is only a method by wich to get through the digestive system. | ||

I'm going to say this in hopes of not looking like a fool. I have been reading about AS for a long time, and it was and is my understanding that anavar is NOT 17aa. I have never heard anything before stating that they were. If i am wrong then please prove me wrong. | ||

Bloatboy, you say you've read a lot of literature regarding AS, and you don't know anavar (oxandrolone) is 17-aa? Your statement doesn't speak volumes in regard to your intelligence........ I think you're confusing anavar with primobolan tabs(which are not 17-alpha-alkylated). Oh, and MeanOne I think you mean 3mg/Kg not 3 grams/Kg...LOL Regarding anavar, I think its hepatoxicity is more pronounced than people realize.(Ulter is going to flame me for this statement...lol) Regarding Anadrol........very bad bang for potential long-term side effects in my humble opinion. Dbol is far, far better...... Godspeed | ||

Fonz, oxandrolone: This is posted above by someone else and it was my understanding as well. Regardless, i'm not into a debate over whether avavar is 17aa, my original post is what i want a discussion over. Any thoughts on that fonz? Thanks | ||

17 ALPHA METHYL = 17 ALPHA ALKALATED ------------------ | ||

Aside from the 17-AA aspect, very little is thought about the metabolites of orals. Those that aromatize will allow for alternative pathways for hepatic insult, and since the estrogenic metabolites are 17-AA, they reside in the body longer. |
