Anavar and stomach issues????

[Bigbadwolf250]

So on 300 npp test 300 and 25 mg var. Been on var for 6 weeks was planning on 8 however past couple days have been having bad abdominal pain after i eat and having to go to the bathroom and stool has been loose. This last time i went had a bunch of lettuce looking things floating around. I did eat moxed greens so prob was that but seems like im not digesting food well.

Anyone experience this and shluld i drop the var?

Yup, has definitely happened to me on Var. My guess is that being an oral it’s absorbed through the small intestine and the stomach, thus causing GI distress. Pretty common for drugs to be absorbed through the gut and causing issues along the way.

I’ve been juggling Imodium, Prilosec and Pepcid.

The tren on top of it has been beating the shit out of me (literally and figuratively)

One week left on the Var and I’ll be interested to see if it slows down.

Try taking an anti diarrheal and see if it helps…or assess if the Var is worth it

The reason why Anavar, was stopped in the 1980's was from stomach ulcers.

Just stop taking var.

What happened to Var being one of the mildest oral compounds?

I haven’t heard any of this - yet

^^^I'd LOVE TO SEE actual evidence of this, please cite your references, when you get a chance.

Infrequent Var side effects do include both diarrhea and abdominal bloating...some people are just more sensitive to it.

As for Var being one of the mildest compounds, that's a direct reference to it's androgenic effects. However, indirectly speaking it is mild on the stomach (as are most DHTs). Again, some people are more sensitive to specific oral meds. Incidentally, it may also be an indicator of another issue, possible reduced digestive enzyme levels, excessive stomach acid, or even the start of an ulcer any of which might be further exacerbated by the medication.

Ya I never read it or experienced it but I only took anavar 5 weeks so far. Extra sweating was the only side effect I had along with some back pump feeling if I took 2 tabs. Felt pretty mild overall for me.

Really? The Wikipedia on this kind of conflicts with what you're saying:

"Oxandrolone was first made by Raphael Pappo and Christopher J. Jung while at Searle Laboratories (now part of Pfizer). The researchers first described the drug in 1962.[4][30][31] They were immediately interested in oxandrolone's very weak androgenic effects relative to its anabolic effects.[30][4] It was introduced as a pharmaceutical drug in the United States in 1964.[4]

The drug was prescribed to promote muscle regrowth in disorders which cause involuntary weight loss, and is used as part of treatment for HIV/AIDS.[4] It had also been shown to be partially successful in treating cases of osteoporosis.[4] However, in part due to bad publicity from its illicit use by bodybuilders, production of Anavar was discontinued by Searle Laboratories in 1989.[4] It was picked up by Bio-Technology General Corporation, which changed its name to Savient Pharmaceuticals, which following successful clinical trials in 1995, released it under the brand name Oxandrin.[4] BTG subsequently won approvals for orphan drug status by the Food and Drug Administration for treating alcoholic hepatitis, Turner syndrome, and HIV-induced weight loss.[4] It is also indicated as an offset to protein catabolism caused by long-term administration of corticosteroids.[4]"
