Novo-pharm Winstrol tabs – Stanozolol General Description

Stanozolol is an anabolic and androgenic steroid produced in tablets. There is also an injectable form called Winstrol. Stanozolol is the active component of the drug.
It was first produced in 1962 by a pharmaceutical company Winthrop Laboratories under the name “Winstrol”. Back then it was used for treating anemia, angioneurotic hereditary edema and increased recovery rates after surgery.

The drug was also used by vets to build up muscle, accelerate blood formation, strengthen bone tissue and increase appetite in weak or sick animals.
Later the drug’s started to be used on race horses to improve their speed performance. This led to bodybuilders, weightlifters, boxer, powerlifters and other strength sports athletes to take notice of the drug.

Novo-pharm Winstrol tabs Benefits

Novo-pharm Stanozolol slightly affects the increase in muscle mass but adds muscle definition, improves vascularity and reduces body fat. The steroid is often used during cutting for those exact properties. 

The anabolic drug produces such positive effects as:

• improved body definition;
• better strength performance and endurance;
• fat loss;
• healthier appetite;
• reduction of excess fluid;
• decreased concentration of globulin responsible for the binding of anabolic hormones, due to which the effectiveness of other steroid drugs of the cycle is increased;
• antiestrogen and antiprostagen effects.

The steroid tends to slightly suppress body’s own testosterone production and doesn’t lead to gynecomastia.

Novo-pharm Winstrol tabs Possible Side Effects

The anabolic drug does not convert to estrogens, so it doesn’t produce negative reactions like gynecomastia or swelling. The usage may cause such side effects as Joint pains and damaged ligaments. We recommend using Deca or Testosterone during the cycle to minimize the risks, as well as special additives for the joints, Hypertension. This symptom can be treated with antihypertensive drugs like enalapril or others, Increased cholesterol levels. This can be eliminated by using omega-3 or other lipid-lowering drugs during the cycle (atorvastatin, lovastatin), 

Some androgenic negative reactions are also possible – acneiform rash, hair loss, suppressed testosterone production, Toxic impact on the liver. The milk thistle extract is recommended as a hepatoprotector during the drug cycle, Myocardial hypertrophy occurs at high dosages of the active component. It’s recommended to begin PCT after the cycle using antiestrogens that will help in restoring the testosterone production. Clomid, tamoxifen or toremifene should be used. Don’t forget about testosterone boosters as well.

Novo-pharm Winstrol tabs Administration and Dosage

A solo Stanozolol cycle is used by athletes for better body definition and vascularity. The drug will be beneficial for those, who have sufficient body weight with a moderate amount of fat. The optimal dosages are at 30-50 mg daily. Track and field athletes and boxers use 10 mg per day. Cycle’s duration - 4-6 weeks. A longer cycle increases the risk of side effects, especially concerning joints. Post-cycle therapy is started 2-3 days after the cycle’s been completed. Maintaining a sports diet is essential for maximized effects.

Using tableted anabolic steroids while eating or after meal reduces the bioavailability of the active component. It’s recommended to use the tableted steroid on an empty stomach for maximized effects. It’s best to take the pills in the morning, as the cortisol hormone production is stimulated to the max during that time. In this case stanozolol protects muscle fibers from breakdown while repressing the production of catabolic hormones.

Novo-pharm Winstrol tabs Combined Cycles

Stanozolol can be used in combined cycles for muscle mass growth alongside such potent androgenic steroids as testosterone, methandrostenolone, Anadrol. In such combinations stanozolol stabilizes the cycle while producing great anabolic effects and reducing estrogen activity of other steroids. Stanozolol can be used with an androgen that doesn’t tend to aromatize (like trenbolone) before a competition or during a special cutting diet. Such a combo improves the toughness and definition of muscle.

Here are some examples of combined stanozolol cycles:

• Anadrol + stanozolol. 30 mg of stanozolol daily and 50 mg of Anadrol per day. The cycle should last no longer than 6 weeks.
• Testosterone + stanozolol. It’s best to use an enanthate as it tends to keep the fluid in the body. Optimal dosages: 30 mg of stanozolol daily and 500 mg of testosterone enanthate per week.
• Methandrostenolone + stanozolol. 30 mg of stanozolol daily and 10-30 mg of methane per day; the daily dosage of the latter should be divided into 2-3 administrations. PCT is started 2-3 days after the cycle’s been completed.

Stanozolol is most often used alongside testosterone. Such a combo allows for minimized risks of adverse reactions – in particular, it significantly reduces the risk of effects concerning the joints, as testosterone retains water in the body, thus preventing the articular bags from drying out. Testosterone also increases the efficiency of stanozolol.
Combined cycles should also inclued aromatase inhibitors. Novo-pharm Nolvadex or Novo-pharm Clomid are recommended for post-cycle therapy. It’s advised to avoid tamoxifen for PCT if trenbolone was used during the cycle – tamoxifen tends to increase the progestogenic activity of trenbolone.
