Nebido
Description:
Endo Pharmaceuticals and its majority-owned subsidiary Indevus Pharmaceuticals
Inc. developed Nebido, a.k.a. testosterone undecanoate. Nebido is testosterone
with the undecanoate ester, a very slow-acting long ester, added to it more on
this later. Nebido is often referred to as Test Undeca. Like all
forms of the androgen testosterone, Nebido possesses an anabolic/androgenic
ratio of 1:1 (specifically 100:100) meaning it is exactly as anabolic (muscle
building) as it is androgenic (impacting male sex characteristics). Because of
this perfectly even ratio, testosterone is the gold standard, i.e. the mark by
which all other steroids and their respective properties are measured.
Testosterone is commonly used by both athletes and bodybuilders alike,
primarily because its a very effective muscle building & strength
developing, inexpensive, readily available, fat reducing androgen. Most
testosterones contain esters, for example, the enanthate ester (a long one) was
developed to increase the time released duration of testosterone thereby
reducing the frequency of injections for hormone therapy patients permitting
for monthly shots. Conversely, the propionate
ester (a short one) requires more frequent daily or every other day dosing.
Depending on the release speed of the ester being administered, bodybuilders
will increase or decrease their dosages and frequency of shots to best
accommodate the properties of particular esters in order to keep their blood
concentrations level. Hybrid ester blends like Sustanon, Omnadren and
others, are best administered frequently earlier in your cycle (like a short
ester) to benefit from the short esters rapid results, and less frequently
later (like a long ester) once the long esters have accumulated within your
bloodstream, i.e. kicked in. By maintaining even testosterone blood serum
levels you can more effectively stave off many of the negative side effects
associated with high and low alternating blood serum concentrations.
More specifically, testosterone undecanoate is a very long ester thats
substantially longer than enanthate. Nebido is a 2009 FDA approved testosterone
undecanoate that actually permits medicinal dosing four times per year, i.e.
every 3 months/90 days (SEE BELOW for bodybuilder administration).
