Injectable Steroids

Injectable steroids are mostly preferred steroid type due to a couple of essential reasons. First of all, it is because injectable steroids come with ester which makes it effective for long duration of time. They have 17-alpha alkylation which is chemical modification of natural hormones. This is why injectable steroids are considered much safer to use compared to oral steroids. They are able to pass by the body’s digestive system. It is the essential characteristic that injectable steroids has which makes it preferred by both athletes and bodybuilder for their steroid cycles.

To make it easier to understand why injectable steroids have less side effect compared to oral ones, it should be mentioned that how oral steroids act on the body. As it is known anabolic steroids are taken in two forms. Orally or by injection. When oral steroids are taken they need to pass through digestive system of the body and the kidney to get into the bloodstream. While they are passing through they are tend to cause serious side effects. At this point, injectable steroids promotes such beneficial effects. Injectable ones do not need to pass through digestive system. In other words they are able to get into bloodstream directly. Hence, there are less likely to cause such side effects compared to oral steroids.

Liquid steroids can be water-based or oil-based. Generally oil-based ones have a longer half-life duration compared to water-based ones. And of course as it is clear that they have much longer half-life durations than oral steroids. It should also be mentioned, even injectable steroids are less likely to cause side effects related to kidney issues, however, they are tend to cause side effects associated liver. This is mainly due to their 17-alpha alkylation being.

The popular injectable steroids that are well chosen by both bodybuilder and athletes can be listed as Deca Durabolin, Sustanon, Nandrolone Propionate, Testosterone Cypionate, Testosterone Enanthate and Boldenone.

Steroids taken by injection can be water-based or oil-based. Generally, the oil-based steroids have a longer half-life than those that are water-based (and much longer than the orals), making those the substances that most often show up in steroid tests. Because they are not designed to pass through the digestive system, as well as other technical reasons, injectable steroids tend to have a much less stressful effect on the liver.
