    Default STEROID HALF LIVES

    STEROID HALF LIFE CHART
    Steroid Half life's - anyone new to steroids may be wondering what this means, even some steroid users may also be wondering what this means. So here in simple terms you can read and hopefully understand all about steroid half life's and what this term means.
    Basically every drug has a half life, steroids included. If for example, you were to inject 200mg of Decadurabolin once weekly, for 6 weeks, how would you know when you were "off"? Would you be "off" when you had finished your last dose? You would be able to calculate this from the half life of Deca. The half life of Deca is around 14 days. This means that 14 days from your last shot of 200mg of Deca, your blood levels of Deca will contain 100mg of the steroid. Another 14 days from then, i.e. 28 days from last dose, your blood levels will contain 50mg of the steroid. This amount then keeps halving every 14 days. Therefore you can clearly see that when you finish your cycle, even though you are not putting any steroids into your body, you may think that you are now "off", however you still have, and will still have for some time after your last dose, "active" blood levels of the steroid. Therefore you can plan what to use, how long for, and how long off your cycle, based on these half life's.

    Below a list of half-life's of the most commonly used steroids, esters and ancillary compounds.

    With USADA some of these detection times may be off some since they are testing in picogram amounts.

    This chart provides a concise overview of the half-lives of commonly used steroids, steroid esters, and ancillary drugs. Understanding these half-lives is crucial for planning steroid cycles, post-cycle therapy, and managing potential side effects.
