Important! The “Your Trainer” website does not sell or encourage the use of anabolic steroids and other potent substances. The information is provided so that those who decide to take them do so as competently as possible and with minimal risk to health.

I believe it is quite difficult to find a pharmacological drug that would receive more negative reviews from bodybuilders and powerlifters than Omnadren 250. In this article we will try to figure out whether this “monster” is so terrible.

Artificial testosterone "Omnadren 250"

It is one of the most affordable drugs. The product “Omnadren 250” receives quite specific reviews from doctors and athletes. But before moving on to them, let's look at the drug itself.

The drug "Omnadren 250" is an anabolic steroid; in its pharmacological properties it is almost identical to the drug "Sustanon". Their differences are just one testosterone ester. The drug is produced in cardboard packages that contain five ampoules of one milliliter each.

The drug contains four types of testosterone:

• 30 mg testosterone propianate;
• 60 mg testosterone phenylpropionate;
• 60 mg testosterone isocapronate;
• 100 mg testosterone decanoate.

As excipients, the drug contains a softening agent for injections - peanut oil, and a preservative - benzyl alcohol.

Instructions

If you are planning to gain weight using the drug "Omnadren 250", the instructions for the therapeutic course should not become the basis for prescribing a course for yourself, but it is recommended to study it. A detailed description is included in the packaging. The first step is to deal with allergic reactions and side effects.

Side effects include gynecomastia and decreased natural testosterone production. When taken for more than 8 weeks, testicular atrophy is possible. These are the most serious consequences. There are also plenty of harmless, but very unpleasant ones: acne, prostate hypertrophy, baldness and other androgenic side effects. An increase in temperature is also possible. With incorrect injections and increased irritability of the body, bumps may form at the injection sites. They can be completely avoided if you entrust injections to experienced people. However, the bumps are not dangerous and will resolve on their own in no more than five weeks.

According to the instructions, injections can be given no more than once a week, but some types of testosterone in the composition quickly end their effect, for example, propianate must be supplied to the body every two days. Consult with a specialist in advance before increasing the frequency of Omnadren 250 injections. Reviews from athletes who took the drug every four days are mostly positive, but each organism has its own characteristics, so you should not neglect the consultation, since the frequency of use is determined by the longest ester (decanoate - from 7 to 9 days).

Contraindications

Sometimes the drug is not prescribed due to the increased risk of serious complications. In some patients, the immune system is sensitive to the active or auxiliary components of the solution. An allergic reaction is possible. To exclude this complication, you need to carefully study the composition and consult a doctor.

Prescribed by a doctor

Other contraindications:

• Age of puberty in men.
• Impaired kidney function.
• Disruption of liver tissue.
• Breastfeeding period.
• Carrying a child.
• Overgrowth of glandular breast tissue in men.
• Prostate carcinoma.
• Old age in males.
• Elevated calcium levels.
• Increased calcium filtration in nephron tubules.
• Heart dysfunction.
• Asthenic condition.

Course of the drug "Omnadrena 250"

Not only for the first experience, but also for athletes accustomed to artificial testosterone, taking the drug “Omnadren 250”, a solo course, is suitable. Reviews vary widely; some experienced athletes give injections every day, while others do so once a week. Although the drug remains in the body for 7-9 days, athletes are not afraid to increase the dosage to 500 ml per day. For the most part, the reason is the low price. However, practice and advice from doctors suggest that a dosage of 250-500 ml per week is quite optimal. To achieve greater results, it is still better to take it together with other esters and drugs that enhance its effect, for example with Stanozolol or Winstrol, which increase the absorption and activity of testosterone.

Like the Sustanon solution, the main disadvantage of taking the drug Omnadren 250 (solo course), reviews call a decline in muscle mass and strength indicators after the end of the dose. In addition, gynecomastia is very likely if you do not take aromatase inhibitors, since taking the drug increases estrogen levels.

The course begins with two weeks of 250 ml, then the injections become more frequent to one every four days. Three weeks after the end of the course, post-cycle therapy is carried out.

Cons of Omnadren

1. Water retention has a downside - swelling of the face and body;
2. Strong suppression of the body's production of its own testosterone;
3. Aggressiveness;
4. Gynecomastia;
5. Problems with liver activity;
6. Increased blood pressure;
7. Big pimples.

In addition, the drug is available and if you choose Omnadren, the price for it is in the range of 800-900 rubles for 5 ampoules. Because of this, the anabolic steroid is used up to 10 ampoules daily, which is 2500 mg.

Exceeding the dose in the hope of getting the desired effect as quickly as possible causes severe swelling of the face and pimples that often cover the entire body from head to toe.

When you finish taking a “solo” drug and start using others in parallel, the complex of “side effects” begins to grow like mushrooms after rain, and in the end all the bumps still go to Omnadren, without taking into account what was taken together.

Post cycle therapy

Proviron product. The most popular hormonal drug taken after a course of steroids. The active ingredient is masterolon. Helps avoid aromatization of steroids and their conversion into estrogens. Prevents the appearance of gynecomastia. Take 50 mg per day, it is advisable to split the dose into two 25 mg doses. The course lasts approximately 3-5 weeks. It is better to purchase the drug in advance so that there are no problems later, because the body needs help after taking potent steroids. It also eliminates excess water in the body and removes fat deposits on the body.

The drug "Tamoxifen". The most affordable and effective anti-estrogen. It is taken during courses of steroids at 20-40 mg per day. The drug Tamoxifen fights the aromatization of steroids, eliminates the accumulation of excess water in the muscles, and fights the appearance of acne, which is important when taking Omnadren 250. Unlike the drugs "Proviron", "Tamoxifen" only prevents aromatization, and does not fight the appearance of its signs, so you can start taking it immediately after leaving the course.

special instructions

The drug must not be administered intravenously.

Against the background of androgen therapy for breast cancer, hypercalcemia may develop due to stimulation of osteolysis; in this case, increased metastasis to the skeletal system may occur. With increasing hypercalcemia, the use of the drug must be discontinued. During therapy with androgen drugs in women, it is necessary to monitor the level of calcium in the blood serum and urine.

If high doses of the drug are used, hemoglobin concentrations and hematocrit values ​​should be monitored.

If during treatment signs of jaundice, hepatitis or changes in liver function parameters appear, the drug should be discontinued until the etiology of these disorders is established. It is recommended to carefully monitor liver activity.

The use of Omnadren 250 in older men may increase the risk of developing prostate hypertrophy or cancer. Before starting therapy and after its completion, examination of the prostate gland and monitoring of PSA (prostate-specific antigen) levels are required.

If peripheral edema appears in persons with damage to the cardiovascular system, kidneys or liver, treatment with the drug must be discontinued.

The use of Omnadren 250 as a doping can lead to the development of severe adverse reactions.

For patients with delayed puberty, androgen therapy is prescribed with extreme caution, monitoring the condition of the skeletal system every 6 months.

No direct effect of the drug on the ability to drive vehicles and other complex mechanisms was detected. However, it should be taken into account that a decrease in the speed of psychomotor reactions and a deterioration in concentration during therapy may be observed due to the development of heart failure.

If you observe the formation of flakes in an oil solution, it is recommended to immerse the ampoule in warm water (37°C) for several minutes.

Omnadren 250: reviews from doctors

The drug is very similar to Sustanon. Thanks to this, the Omnadren 250 solution quickly gained popularity. Reviews and recommendations from doctors are quite clear - the drug has a positive effect on the body with a minimum number of side effects that are easily eliminated, however, it is recommended to use no more than 500 ml per week and only under conditions of heavy physical activity and the use of agents that reduce testosterone aromatization. Doctors do not recommend taking the Omnadren 250 solution without accompanying medications, exceeding the dosage, or injecting without the appropriate knowledge.

Instructions for use of Omnadren in bodybuilding

Here we come to the last part of our topic - the course, dosages and side effects of Omnadren in bodybuilding.
To avoid all the side effects described above, athletes must strictly adhere to the instructions for using the steroid. The average duration of drug courses is 1.5 to 2 months. In amateur bodybuilding, this time period is quite enough to get good results. Although the drug can only be administered once during the week, we recommend administering omka twice. This will ensure that you avoid hormonal pitfalls. Omka dosages should be selected individually, but should be in the range from 0.25 to 0.75 grams throughout the week. Moreover, in most cases, it is quite enough to use 0.5 grams in this time period. This will allow you to get excellent results and minimize the risk of side effects. By the way, to eliminate them, various drugs are used during the course:

1. Estrogenic side effects
   - aromatase inhibitors, for example, anastrozole or exemestane, must be included in the course.
2. Androgenic side effects
   - finasteride is used.
3. Suppression of the secretion of endogenous testosterone
   - if the duration of the course exceeds ten weeks or the drug is used in large doses, it is necessary to use gonadotropin.

Also, after completion of the cycle, restorative therapy is mandatory. To do this, you need to choose one of three drugs - Clomid, tamoxifen or toremifene. The first two are the most popular among athletes. Experienced athletes most often use AAS in various combinations. Combined cycles allow you to increase performance without increasing the risk of side effects. Let's look at examples of several courses involving Omnadren.

Omnadren course for rapid muscle mass gain

This cycle included omnadren, testosterone propionate, Winstrol and Turinabol. All these medications must be taken according to the following schedule:

• From the 1st to the 6th week
  - the weekly dosage of Omnadren is 0.4 grams.
• From the 1st to the 6th week
  - take 40 milligrams of Turinabol daily.
• From the 7th to the 9th week
  - every second day, inject 0.1 grams of testosterone propionate.
• From the 7th to the 9th week
  - the daily dosage of Winstrol is 50 milligrams.

Omnadren course for experienced athletes

• From the 1st to the 8th week
  - the weekly dose of omka is from 0.75 to 1 gram.
• From the 1st to the 8th week
  - take oxymetholone in the amount of 0.1 grams every day.
• From the 9th to the 11th week
  - the daily dosage of Winstrol is 50 milligrams.
• From the 9th to the 11th week
  - every other day, administer 0.1 grams of testosterone propionate.

Omnadren course for strength

• From the 1st to the 8th week
  - Omnadren is administered in an amount of 0.7 grams.
• From the 1st to the 8th week
  - the daily dosage of turinabol is 50 milligrams.
• From the 9th to the 11th week
  - take 50 milligrams of methandienone every day.
• From the 9th to the 11th week
  , testosterone propionate is administered every other day at a dosage of 0.1 grams.

When choosing combinations of AAS, there are no restrictions, and you can use Omka with any steroid. At this moment, you need to proceed from the assigned tasks and characteristics of your body. All dough esters are perfectly accepted by the body, because the exogenous substance does not differ from the endogenous one. Most often, problems during the course of Omnadren arise due to non-compliance with the recommendations or genetically predetermined high activity of the enzymes aromatase and 5-alpha-dihydrogenase.

Health effects

Like all steroids, the main negative effect of Omnadren 250 is on the hormonal system, temporarily reducing the production of your own testosterone and aromatizing it. It also leads to excessive accumulation of water in the muscles and disruption of the sebaceous glands of the skin, which often causes rashes and acne to appear after taking it. All this can be completely avoided by following the instructions described in the paragraph “Post-course therapy”.

Side effects

Undesirable reactions may occur during drug therapy. Sensitivity of the immune system to the components of the solution in the form of allergic manifestations is possible.

Common Undesirable Effects:

• Hormonal system: pain in the lower abdomen during menstruation, impaired production of gonadotropin in women, early closure of the epiphyses of bone tissue in men, early puberty in boys during puberty, virilization in patients, male pattern hair growth in women, proliferation of glandular breast tissue in men , long painful erection, impaired production of ejaculate and male reproductive cells.
• Blood coagulation system: disruption of the functioning of blood plasma coagulation factors 2,5,7 and 10. Also chronic hemoblastosis and hemorrhages while taking anticoagulants.
• Digestive system: vomiting, abdominal discomfort, increased levels of liver transaminases, disruption of the liver tissue, hepatic purpura, yellowing of the skin and mucous membranes, liver oncology.
• Metabolism: increased concentration of cholesterol in the bloodstream.
• Nervous system: cephalalgia, phobias, sensory disturbances.
• Other: male pattern hair loss, decreased sexual desire, acne, inflammatory reactions in the area where the drug was administered.

The severity of adverse reactions depends on the dosage and condition of the patient.

Reviews from athletes

Mass gain is the main purpose of the drug “Omnadren 250”. Reviews from the bodybuilding community are only positive, since the price of the drug is much more attractive than that of similar products, and it performs its main task no worse than the Sustanon solution.

According to athletes, the drug has the following disadvantages:

• A number of side effects that, in principle, all such drugs have (acne, high blood pressure, gynecomastia, accumulation of water in the body, low testosterone production).
• Availability. No matter what they say, availability causes an urgent need to inject yourself with 250-500 ml per day.
• A considerable part of the muscle mass gained is lost after stopping the use of the drug.

In general, these are all the negative aspects of the drug “Omnadren 250”. Reviews from athletes also note its positive qualities:

• The combination of esters gives an amazing effect for building muscle mass.
• Water retention in the body increases the resistance of joints to heavy weights, which allows you to increase strength without the risk of injury.
• The regeneration process accelerates and appetite increases.

results

Let's look at the results of taking the drug Omnadren 250. Feedback from specific people allows us to draw a conclusion about the difference in the initial data and results.

For example, an athlete weighing 95 kilograms gains ten kilograms over a course of 5 weeks on a high-protein diet. The course includes:

— The drug “Omnadren 250”. There is a 7 day difference between the first two injections. Then, every four days, an injection of 250 mg of the substance, that is, one milliliter of the drug.

- Proveron product. Its course begins with the last injection of the previous one. 50 mg per day for three weeks.

- The drug Tamoxifen. 20 mg per day, ends with the course of Proveron.

After leaving the course, the athlete weighs 102 kg.

Strength indicators increase as follows:

Bench press – 130, after the course 145.

Squat – 140, after the course 155.

Deadlift – 155, after the course 180.

This is an example of how the drug “Omnadren 250” works for the first course. With its help, you can achieve much greater results, especially if you take other anabolic agents at the same time.
