Nebido® (Long Acting 12 week HRT) Launched (not for the USA though)

[Massive G]

Schering has just gotten approval.
Testosterone Undecanoate has been around for some time in UG/BM BB'ing circles and described as "nothing special" for traditional cycling patterns and gains.

It should however work quite well in those that are needle phobic and using it for replacement.

Interesting to note-it won't be released in the US.
It may have some application in those that are traveling as 1g will give you about normal test for 14 weeks, so 2g should give you about double normal levels.

The Undecanoate ester has been available for some time on the Underground Black Market-but so far hasn't really been reported as anything special due to the availability of the regular esters and the mormal cyclic patterns in which they are used.


"Nebido®
Testosterone preparation for intramuscular injection in male hypogonadism
Composition: Each ampoule contains 1000 mg testosterone undecanoate in a 4-ml solution for injection (250 mg testosterone undecanoate/ml).

Nebido® is the first 3-monthly injectable testosterone preparation for the treatment of male hypogonadism. Nebido® offers long-lasting testosterone levels in the eugonadal range. It reliably and significantly improves all symptoms associated with hypogonadism.

With Nebido® testosterone levels remain constantly - for up to 14 weeks - in the eugonadal range, avoiding unphysiological peaks and troughs. Patients value the consistent, reliable efficacy and the long duration of effect, which mean they are not dependent on taking frequent medication. Consequently, Nebido® is believed to become the standard preparation for long-term treatment.

Nebido® is injected deeply into the gluteal muscle. Following administration, testosterone undecanoate is gradually released from the depot and is cleaved by serum esterases into testosterone and undecanoic acid. An increase of serum testosterone concentrations above basal values can already be measured the very next day after injection.

Nebido® will be introduced in Europe, starting in Finland and Germany, autumn 2004. Other European countries will follow in 2005. Launches in Latin American and Asian will start 2005.

You could just make your own cheaper using one of the board sponsers I was looking into testosterone implants awhile ago ,thinking they could be implanted sub-Q with a Large bore syringe ,but they are tablet shape and very impractical.

Undecanoate

Same ester as in most Boldenone (Equipoise) injectables.

I don't get it ..is this an implant or a injection?? and one injection lasts 12 weeks??
If thats the case than I think that would be a good deal..if you could get it and double the dose that would be a great base for a cycle..Undeconate has been shown to be very safe and from what I remember doesnt aromitize...I did some years ago..Andriol...problem is you gotta take alot and every 3 hrs..plus its expensive as hell.. but if you can afford to take enuff it does work well..so this may be a good deal if you could take one double dose shot (or 2 shots at the same time) that lasts 12 weeks for a base..then you could add from there fro whatever you goals are....
Good info..have to see how it pans out..

It's admistered @ 1 gram for the treatment, the dose is 4 mls as it's presentation (according to the site) is a 4 ml amp 250 mgs per ml.

I don't know if any will make it on the BM initially as when any "new" drug or treatment is launched they are pretty $$$$$$$$.

I know TU isn't anything new and it is available by powder for some, amazing what a little pharmaceutical backing can do eh?
It kinda legitamizes and validates it's use and gets the UG/BM juicer's wheels spinning.

I agree MG...TU is a god compound but too expensive to take at effective dosage..but if we could get say BD or someone to make it so that it would be a cost effective option I think it would be popular..I know Id give it a run for sure!!! based on what ive read in the past i think it could be a very safe option even at high dose

Just bumping up an old thread, anybody ever tried Nebido?

 

[jp2007]

I believe it's held in caster oil as well, so it's not like a regular injection... I know some people who use it for TRT. They love it, does exactly what it's supposed to do... I have yet to hear of anyone using it in an AAS cycle yet though

Is that the same stuff that last's 3 months in your system?

 

[ironjunkie]

Guys don't forget theres a loading phase. 1000mgs week one, 6 weeks later another 1000mgs and then you dose evey 10 -12 weeks. They say every 14 or 16 but 10-12 is preferd so blood levels don't drop to rapidly.

 

[Kapeta]

This would seem good for those who are after slow gains without pinning much.

Anyone here use this exclusively for this reason?

 

[ironjunkie]

If I were to use it I would prob suppl with test ace or prop until it kicked in. I think you can still make gains on it, prob like taking 300mgs a week of test a week and if it wasn't than I would do 1200mgs every 10-12 weeks to equal 300mgs of test.

But it's an HRT thing so quality of life is the goal over gains...but you can still grow.

 

[The Wolf]

I would only consider it off cycle if I do hrt, whats the point on using for as part of a cycle when there are much more effective Testostorones than that?

 

[whiteknucks]

so after the loading phase, if your shoot 2 grams that last for 10 weeks and that is the same as shooting 2 grams a week for 10 weeks of test e?

basically you shoot 1g (4ml) each 12 weeks not 2grams!

ive been on this from my endo for 18 months now, its not the same ester as eq its undecanoate, in castor oil and is completely painless, I have to have an injection every 6 weeks and it still dosent last for six weeks for me, some others on this board get away with 10-12 weeks though.
I have blood work to check levels at six weeks and its still v low before next inj.
so it dosent work as intended for me, 125mg of sustanon a week I had better sex drive but is no longer availiable in the uk under license now.
I have had a thread in the HRT section for quite some time now if your interested in reading it?

yeah TIMMO 1g every 12 weeks isn't enought for me at all either.
My hunches are that 1g every 8 weeks would be ideal. Maybe 10 weeks but not more.
My test levels have been disappointly low during this 3 shots span period.

 

[TIMMO]

my test levels are still low at 6 week injs

 

[ryohayabusa]

my test levels are still low at 6 week injs

really?
So you inject 1g each 6 weeks?
I bet your endo doesn't want to switch ester either.
Mine is nebido or androgel, he's against test e.
Ridicoulus don't you think?
