Winstrol is a common brand name for the drug stanazolol. Stanazolol is a 17-aa steroid, designed for
oral administration but also available in injectable form. Winstrol is classified as an anabolic,
exhibiting low androgenic side effects. Its' anabolic properties however are not dramatic and is often
used in combination with other drugs, most commonly during cutting cycles when water and fat
retention are a major concern. In the U.S., the Zambon brand name from Spain seems to be the most
popular. It is supplied in 2mg tabs and 50mg water-based injectable ampules. Common dosages are
10-25mg/day orally and 25-50 mg daily injected. On the black market, tabs sell for $1-2 each and
ampules usually cost $15-20. Obviously Winstrol can be very expensive to use. 30ml of injectable
Winstrol-V (U.S. Veterinary product) is usually more cost effective but legitimate bottles are now
rarely seen due to strict gov't control. There are many forms of counterfeit Winstrol, so one should be
careful when purchasing this product. The Zambon tabs are pink and come 20 to a strip. The Zambon
injectable ampules and American Winstrol-V have been duplicated with good accuracy. One should
make sure the water and steroid separate when the vial is left out on a table for some time.
