This was hugely popular in the late eighties early nineties I rarely see anyone using it today, back in my days it was traditional used for guys who where being drug tested. Cytadren inhibits the production of androgens, estrogens and cortisone in the body. Medically Cytadren is indicated for the suppression of adrenal function for patients with Cushing’s syndrome. So you are probably wondering why do bodybuilders use it, simply its ability to suppress estrogen and that’s great if you’re using AAS that converts to estrogen but what set this apart, it’s ability to inhibit the production of cortisol and for those who don’t know cortisol is a catabolic hormone in other words it breaks down muscle.
If you’re thinking of using this you might want to think again, its heavy on the liver and at times I felt quite fatigued, honestly by consuming 3grams of vitamin C this will lower the cortisone effect too. As for the dosage, I have experimented with 1/2 a tablet to 3 tablets per day (250mg), leading into a show in the mind set to dry out just ever so slightly.
Dosage: 250mg-500mg
Usage: 1-2 weeks
