Methasterone (Superdrol)
A 17-alpha-alkylated oral anabolic steroid (methyldrostanolone) known for rapid strength and mass gains. It is notably harsh on the liver and blood lipids.
- Half-life
- 8 h
- Out of system
- ~1.7 days
- Route
- Oral
- Level
- Intermediate
Short-acting — protocols usually dose daily. After the last dose, roughly 97% has cleared in ~1.7 days (five half-lives) — the window that matters for washouts, bloodwork and surgery.
What Methasterone (Superdrol) is used for
- Drives rapid gains in muscle mass and strength over short cycles
- Active orally, so no injections are required
- Produces visible results quickly, which is why it remains popular
How it's typically used
Anecdotal user reports describe roughly 10-20 mg daily on short cycles, framed as reported practice and not a recommendation.
What to watch for
- Highly hepatotoxic — liver enzymes can spike sharply even on short cycles
- Crushes HDL and raises blood pressure, straining the cardiovascular system
- Fully suppresses natural testosterone and requires a recovery protocol
- An unapproved anabolic steroid and controlled substance; illegal without a prescription in most countries
About Androgens & steroids
- What they are
- Anabolic-androgenic steroids — testosterone and its derivatives. These are drugs, not peptides, and are controlled substances in most countries.
- How they're run
- Injected intramuscularly or subcutaneously on a schedule set by the ester's half-life; a few are oral and hepatotoxic.
- What to watch
- Every one of these shuts down your own testosterone production. Full bloodwork before, during, and after is not optional, and an exit plan — PCT or ongoing replacement — is part of the decision to start, not an afterthought.
