Elevated liver function while on clen?

**j_jack34** · 11-05-2007, 02:08 PM

Can clen elevate liver function? Just got results from bloodwork (taken 11/1)...elevated liver function. The only thing I have been taking is clen, hrt dose of test cyp
(200mg/2wks), arginine, taurine, potassium, multi-vitamin. Doc wants me back in 2 wks for more bloodwork.

My second question is : with my last injection of cyp I also ran 200mg Deca . Now this was AFTER bloodwork had been done. Should I drop the Deca before next blood test. This was first shot of deca.

Thanks for the help.

PS This is first bloodwork after running this cycle that I stopped on 9/14.

Sust 500 mg/ wk
deca 400 mg/ wk
d-bol 50 mg/ ed for 5 weeks

If this is the case, would it be wise to run some sort of liver protectant while on Clen ?

Or will it decrease the effectiveness of Clen?

Clen has been conclusively shown to collect in various organs including the liver, most notably causing food poisoning by those who erroneously consume this most toxic organ of any animal's body. So technically speaking, a liver protector/cleanser would be of benefit. Furthermore, any such protectant wouldn't impact absorption because it'll only remove those residues normally trapped by the liver.

Which values do you have elevated?

AST and ALT are normally elevated in someone performing high intensity resistence training, because of muscle breakdown. Check your CpK, if its elevated muscle breakdown is the cause for you elevated values.

If your GGT is elevated also, that is a clear sign of liver damage so tappering down and running som liver protection would be wise.

AST(SGOT) 50
ALT(SGPT) 60

Is cpk and ggt listed as something else? Because I don't see it on the results.

CpK - creatine phosphokinase

GGT - gama-glutamiltransferase

chloride 103
potassium 3.9
co2 23
bun 16
calcium 9.6
creatinine 1.1
glucose 93
protein, total 7.4
ast 50
alt 60
albumin 4.6
alkaline phosphatase 54
bilirubin, total 0.6
anion gap 15.9
osmolality 287
bun/creatinine ration 14.5
globulin 2.8
a/g ratio 1.6
