Trenbolone enanthate

From WikiMD's Wellness Encyclopedia

Trenbolone Enanthate is a synthetic steroid used in veterinary medicine to promote muscle growth in livestock. It is a derivative of nandrolone, but unlike nandrolone, it is not used in humans.

Chemical Structure[edit | edit source]

Trenbolone Enanthate is a 19-nor steroid, meaning it lacks the 19th carbon that is typically present in most steroids. This unique structure contributes to its high anabolic and androgenic properties. The enanthate ester attached to the trenbolone molecule controls the release of the steroid into the bloodstream, which is slower than other forms of trenbolone.

Uses[edit | edit source]

Trenbolone Enanthate is used in veterinary medicine, particularly for cattle. It is often administered to livestock to increase muscle mass and appetite. The drug is typically implanted in the ears of cattle, slowly releasing the steroid into the animal's bloodstream over a period of time.

Side Effects[edit | edit source]

While Trenbolone Enanthate is not used in humans due to its potential side effects, it is known to cause a number of adverse reactions in animals. These include aggression, increased heart rate, and potential kidney and liver damage.

Legal Status[edit | edit source]

In many countries, the use of Trenbolone Enanthate in livestock is regulated due to concerns about the potential for residue in meat products. In the United States, it is classified as a Schedule III controlled substance under the Controlled Substances Act.
