    Well you probably will have alittle water retention, but keep i mind everyone is different, the extent of the water retention will be variable from person to person. Good to hear that you haven't had any heavy sides. Have you lost any pounds yet?? Do you look different in the mirror??

    Yes you will have water retention. 200mg is not too high of a dose, good for you. You will look your best about a week after the cycle when everything is said and done. A week off should be enough to purge the water. Do not take diuretics to speed this up! Good luck, don't bump the dose too high.

    yes you will have water retention ... but not to bad remember you will look your best 3-4 days after the DNP cycle ....

    Why no diuretics? I'm on a 15 day 500mg/day cycle right now and I am BLOATED TO HELL! I am trying to get lean pretty quick and I need to drop the water quickly after the cycle... I have maxzide and planned on taking a few pills a day to drop the bloat as quickly as possible.. please advise.

    A MILD diuretic can be used after discontinuation of DNP but really just isn't a smart idea, and there really isn't a need for it. Keep in mind the very long halflife of DNP and possible complications that could arise from using diuretics post DNP. People have died from using a diuretic on its one, so if you think about it, using it in conjunction with DNP is just simply put; a bad idea.

    please advise.
    You are cooking from the inside out. You need to stay hydrated to stay alive. That sums it up.

    Post DNP use of course bro.. and someone else mentioned the long half life.. so instead of starting the day after discontinuation I'll wait until the 2nd day after to let my levels drop enough so that it is relatively safe in comparison. Makes sense to me! Thanks!

    I myself have not had the chance to experiment with DNP extensively, but DNP is one of those things (diuretics also), where the margin for error is very small. Some people have stated that even a week after DNP cessation they have still felt the effects. Just seems a bit to dangerous for what it is worth.

    Well no offense to those people but they might be a little on the sensitive side. I take DNP and in a week the only thing that still reminds me I took it in the first place is the water I'm STILL holding! Maxzide is a very mild diuretic and could be used safely and beneficially post DNP cycle. I'm sure of it. If I die I'll let you know..

    I understand, but given the half life, seems like an extra risk factor during your use of diuretics, your choice though, but I personally would refrain from using it.
    Keep us updated on your survival.

    I didn't use a scale... it makes me mad.. I just look in the mirror.. it's the true test ya know? 500mg is pretty bad.. I have no idea how guys can go higher.. they must be crazy! I sweat all day.. I have horrible head aches.. i cramp up.. get indigestion.. I feel like I can't drink enough water and like I swallowed sand.. BUT BESIDES THAT IT'S GREAT!

    sorry didnt read it right...the difference in halflife between the powder and crystal is quite big...the powder stays (after long use) approx 7 days in my system, maybe longer but it was noticable in that timeframe..
    The crystal approx 2 days...
    really liking the crystal version..
    grtz

    You are kidding right?

    How does the Salt that is bonded to the DNP alter the half life of the actual chemical?

    Please explain.

    Please explain.
    Solid drug forms must dissolve before absorption can occur, dissolution rate determines availability of the drug for absorption. Thus when dissolution is slower tehn absorption this van be a bottle neck. Manipulating the drug's form as salt, crystal, or hydrate can change the dissolution rate and thus control overall absorption.
    Dnp is least soluble in the unionized or undissociated form, so added a salt form to it will make the drug more soluble.

    This also counts with my experience with DNP

    I used 600mg for 8days and sweated pretty nicely but it was deff tolerable during the day but i needed the a/c on 70 and a fan on high for the night. I also sweated at night alot lol. The main prob was the carb cravings! I wanted to eat everything in site and never felt guilty. I lost weight but it went up and down.

    After that I used 200mg for 21 days along with lipo 6. I had almost no cravings and hardly dripped. i found it hard to eat my daily 2500cals. The weightloss was alot more managable.

    Both times i never felt bloat to be that big of an issue. I was drinking about 1.5-2g water ed too

    Just wondering can you split your DNP dose? Does it matter if you take half in the morning and half at night?
