Anadrol CJC-1295 (without DAC)
Weight 332.48 Da 3,367.97 Da
Half-life ~8-9 hours 30 minutes - 2 hours
Chain 30 amino acids
Type 17-alpha alkylated anabolic steroid (C21H32O3) GHRH analog

Key Benefits

Anadrol
01 Rapid and dramatic increases in muscle mass and bodyweight
02 Exceptional strength gains, often noticeable within the first week
03 Potent stimulation of erythropoietin and red blood cell production
04 Increased appetite and nutrient partitioning in some users
05 Improved recovery between training sessions
06 Full, round muscle appearance due to intramuscular water and glycogen retention
07 FDA-approved treatment for various forms of anemia
CJC-1295 (without DAC)
01 Preserves natural GH pulsatility
02 Minimal side effects
03 No receptor desensitization
04 Precise GH release control
05 4x greater receptor affinity than native GHRH

Dosing Protocols

Anadrol
25-50 mg/day / Once or twice daily (oral)
CJC-1295 (without DAC)
100-300mcg per injection / 2-3 times daily (morning, post-workout optional, bedtime)
Anti-Aging/Wellness 100mcg 2x daily (morning and bedtime)
Body Composition 100-150mcg 3x daily (morning, post-workout, bedtime)
Maximum GH Release 200mcg 2-3x daily with GHRP
Sleep Enhancement 100-200mcg Once at bedtime

Side Effects

Anadrol
Significant water retention and bloating (estrogenic, not aromatase-mediated)
Elevated blood pressure (fluid volume and RBC increase)
Severe liver stress and elevated liver enzymes (AST/ALT)
Back pumps and lower back pain during exercise
Headaches (often blood pressure-related)
Appetite suppression (paradoxical for a mass-building compound)
Lethargy and fatigue (hepatic strain-related)
Acne and oily skin
Suppression of natural testosterone production
CJC-1295 (without DAC)
Generally well-tolerated at recommended doses
Temporary facial flushing/warmth (5-10 minutes post-injection)
Contraindications
Pre-existing liver disease or significantly elevated liver enzymes
Prostate cancer or breast cancer in males
Nephrotic phase of nephritis
Hypercalcemia (Anadrol can exacerbate calcium levels)
Pregnancy (Category X - causes virilization of the female fetus)
Known hypersensitivity to oxymetholone
Concurrent use of other 17-alpha alkylated oral steroids (compounded liver toxicity)
Active cancer (due to growth-promoting effects)
Diabetic retinopathy
Severe kidney disease
Pregnancy or breastfeeding
