DP-100

DESCRIPTION

Drostanolone propionate (DP-100) is an anabolic/androgenic steroid which is the propionate ester of drostanolone. It is known to be androgenic and anabolic.

It is incapable of aromatization and has similar properties to dihydrotestosterone. It has been successfully used as a breast cancer drug. Drostanolone Propionate is a derivative of DHT, and its chemical structure is 2α-methyl-dihydro- testosterone propionate.

DP-100 (Drostanolone Propionate) is commonly used in treatment of certain forms of breast cancer. Drostanolone Propionate is not clinically used for weight gain. Its toxicity to the liver is very low, although side effects such as acne, hair loss and prostrate enlargement are common.

The structure of Drostanolone Propionate is that of a moderate anabolic/potent androgen which does not aromatize to estrogen. It may in fact exhibit anti-estrogenic activity in the body, competing with other substrates for binding to aromatase.

Drostanolone Propionate is effective for inhibiting estrogens from making an interaction with the aromatase enzyme and is considered by sportsmen as a performance enhancing drug that prevents estrogenic side effects and has anabolic and androgenic properties.

A powerful anabolic/androgenic steroid derived from DHT, it can be used as a bulking and cutting agent for promoting an improved look of density and hardness to the muscles. Commonly used as a cutting or pre-contest drug, Drostanolone Propionate is often associated with improvements in terms of aggression, performance, stamina, muscle size, and muscle function and is useful in giving a new and improved meaning to loss of body fat and weight. Since use of this steroid is characterized by low levels of water retention, Drostanolone Propionate users can expect distinct muscle lines.

Dosage and Administration

The recommended dosage for Drostanolone propionate is 50-150 mg/ml or 350 mg/week (or 100mgs every other day) to 500 mg/week while the ideal dose for women is 25-50 mg every other day to every third day. It is usually stacked with anabolic steroids such as testosterone propionate, trenbolone acetate.

Interactions

Androgens may increase sensitivity to oral anticoagulahts. Dosage of the anticoagulant may require reduction in order to maintain satisfactory therapeutic hypoprothrombinemia.

Concurrent administration of oxyphenbutazone and androgens may result in elevated serum levels of oxyphenbutazone.

In diabetic patients, the metabolic effects of androgens may decrease blood glucose and therefore, insulin requirements.
