Anapolon is a powerful and popular oral anabolic steroid developed in the 1960s by Zoltan Pharmaceuticals. It is now regarded as one of the “go to” steroids for building muscle mass.

This article will look at this steroid in more detail, we will look at the benefits you will gain from its use and the potential side effects.

If you are considering giving this steroid a chance then I would highly recommend that you continue reading. [toc]

What Is Anapolon?
Anapolon is one of the brand names of Oxymetholone, it was originally created to treat patients with anaemia caused by bone marrow failure, or those who are deficient in red blood cells. It is usually administered orally, but occasionally oily injections are used.

How Does Anapolon Work?
This steroid does not directly increase testosterone levels like other anabolic steroids, for instance Trenbolone.

The anabolic to androgenic ratio of Anapolon is 320:45, which when compared to testosterone (100:100) shows how powerful this steroid is.

This steroid works by increasing protein synthesis and has also been shown to increase the number of red blood cells your body produces. This increases the amount of oxygen and vital nutrients sent to your muscle tissue.

These extra red blood cells will also give you a more intense pump, which also has numerous muscle and strength building benefits.

Anapolon Benefits
Using Anapolon will provide numerous benefits that include:

Increased muscle mass – It should be noted that Anapolon causes water retention
Significant strength gains
Better joint and ligament health – Due to an increased synthesis of synovial fluid
Lower levels of SHBG, which makes other anabolic steroids more effective
Increased stamina
Potential Anapolon Side Effects
Potential side effects of Anapolon include:

Water retention
High blood pressure
Acne
Hair loss
Changes to blood clotting
Gynocomastia
Mood swings
Liver toxicity at high doses
Even though Anapolon causes side effects like gyno and water retention, this is not because it aromatises but rather due to an increase in progestin activity.

How To Avoid Anapolon Side Effects?
As with any steroid, to reduce the risk of side effects it is important that you do not exceed the recommended dosage.

While not hepatotoxic at low doses, if you intend on using larger dosages it is recommended that you supplement with Milk Thistle.

To restart your natural testosterone production post-cycle you should make sure you take a PCT course for 3-4 weeks.

The PCT should include testosterone estrogen blockers such as Clomifene and Toremifene. Tamoxifen is not the best option as it will stimulate your progestin receptors.

What Is The Anapolon Half-Life?
The half-life of Anapolon is 9 hours, while the detection time is up to 3 months.

This means that if you have an upcoming show you need to be careful if there is drug testing taking place.

How To Cycle Anapolon?
It is recommended that you do not cycle Anapolon for longer than 6 weeks, the usual cycle would be between 4-6 weeks.

As for the dosage, it is recommended that you stick to a dosage of 50 mg daily, never exceeding 100 mg daily.

You may think that increasing the dosage would result in better results, but this is not the case. It just increases the risk of encountering potentially dangerous side effects.

At the conclusion of the cycle, it is important that you follow a course of PCT.

Stacking Options For Anapolon
When stacking Anapolon it is important not to choose 17-alpha-alkylated ones. The reason for this is that they will increase the risk of liver-related side effects.

Stacking steroids like Anapolon will reduce the levels of SHBG (Sex Hormone-Binding Globulin), which increases the potency of anabolic steroids.

For building muscle mass it is recommended that you stack with steroids like Testosterone, Boldenone and Primobolan.
