by Bill Roberts - This oral anabolic-androgenic
steroid (AAS) is actually a prodrug of boldenone.
It is the exact same molecule, but with a cyclopentenyl
ether modification at position 17 (recall that injectable
AAS often use ester modifications at 17). This allows
for some degree of oral effectiveness. The prodrug
is not active until it is converted to the parent
drug in the body, by removal of this group.
Quinbolone is not very potent (effective per milligram)
compared to injected boldenone undecylenate (Equipoise),
which itself is not particularly potent. Contrary,
however, to the claim in World Anabolic Review,
this compound should aromatize comparably to Equipoise,
based on its chemical structure. However, I know
of no athletes who use it, so I cannot say that
this is demonstrated.
Quinbolone is the chemical
name of active ingredient in Anabolicum Vister.
Anabolicum Vister was a registered trademark
of Parke Davis (Italy) in the United States
and/or other countries prior to cancellation.
