A Bulgarian company registered as Balkanpharma produced Bionabol; or methandrostenolone as it is medically known as, up until 2005 when it's license to manufacture Bionabol was revoked by the Bulgarian Ministry of Health. The current stocks that are still available can still be taken up until 2009, when this batch will reach it's expiry date.

You may have heard of dianabol which in fact is methandrostenolone and will be remembered as being the most commonly used oral steroid. Dianabol came into play during the mid fifties, when an American pharmaceutical company called Ciba Pharmaceuticals started production. Bionabol is just a derivative of testosterone, although it has been manipulated in such a way that you get an increased anabolic effect and this reduces androgenic side effects big time and it also became popular due the fact that it is an oral steroid.

The guys down at the gym on Bionabol could be taking a dosage of anything between 10mg and 100mg, but this will intend on how big they are looking to become. Higher doses of Bionabol could have negative effects on eventual growth as side effects kick in. It is a risky business if you haven't had that correct advice and the list of side effects is quite scary really with water retention, aggressive behavior, high blood pressure, liver and toxicity are just a few of the possibilities.

To get the best results from using Bionabol, it is recommended that you combine them with injectable steroids, examples of which are deca-durabolin and testosterone. In order to avoid liver damage and other side effects you should not do more than a 6 week cycle. In fact the optimum results are obtained through doing longer cycles of smaller doses of Bionabol.

If you really want to achieve permanent gains you need to be sticking to a low dose cycle of about 10-20mg for an 8-10 week cycle. Make sure you don't fall into the "I know what I'm doing" mode, when you could be getting expert advice from the steroid-encyclopaedia and guaranteed permanent gains without the side effects.
