What are tamoxifen tablets?

Aboot said:
Tamoxifen citrate is Nolvadex. Nolvadex is the "brand name".


OOOOOOOHHH. Ok, that makes me feel ALOT better. I got really worried for a second. On average would 25 20mg tabs be enough for post cycle therapy (pct) of a test only cycle? Or should i have more just in case?

Not a chance.....Nolva only post cycle therapy (pct) should be 40mg/day for 14 days, followed by 20mg/day for another 14 days. That's 42 - 20mg tabs, minimum.
 
And you want to have extra on hand incase you exhibit symptoms of gyno during the cycle. For more nolvadex, simply click on the word nolvadex in this message.

When using liquid nolvadex, increase the dosage by 50%. Thus, 20mg of standard nolvadex = 30mg of liquid nolvadex.

Well i have clomid also, but i'm a little wary about using it from all the negative effects ive been reading about it lately

In the pill form, which is tamoxifen citrate, they only count the weight of the tamoxifen and not the citrate. In other words, a 20mg nolvadex pill actually weighs 30mg (or maybe more...not sure if it has fillers or not).

For the liquid stuff, they count the weight of the entire molecule.

Many, many, many guys use Clomid without any significant problems. The biggest side effect is probably getting emotional. Some guys have vision problems, but I have yet to see anyone have permenant problems from clomid. I believe it has happened, but it is so very rare, that we will never see it.

But if you don't feel comfortable with clomid, then nolva is fine.

the nolva @ research-ology is just injectable? there's no pill form over there?

It's oral not injectable


But it's a liquid? That's what it looks like from the sound of it. i guess the picture of the syringe next to it is just there for no reason? I know i sound kinda stupid right now about this, but i just wanna know what to expect.

The syringe doesn't have a needle in it. The syringe is used to measure the liquid. The concentration is very high; too high to use a teaspoon.
 
Is the syringe included w/the liquid for measuring? And how much would i need to be safe for a 500mg/wk test e cycle - i have 25 20mg tabs already...

Will you be using the nolvadex for post cycle therapy (pct), or will you have it on hand only in case of gyno?

Might want to back off on the testosterone enanthate dosage just a bit if this is your first cycle.
 
i was plannin on using it for both, post cycle therapy (pct) and in case of gyno.... well i've been deliberating b/t 250 once a week or 250 twice a week... still up in the air, but i wanted to err on the side of caution for post cycle therapy (pct) planning reasons
 
If using the liquid stuff, you will need 3mL/day for the first two weeks and 1.5mL/day for the last two weeks. That is 63mL.

I would order two bottles (100mL), or maybe three if you want to really play it on the safe side. If you have symptoms of gyno during your cycle, then you will need about 4mL/day until symptoms subside and then 1.5mL/day for the rest of the cycle.

As for the cycle dosage, why not split the difference and inject ~180mg twice/week?

Thanks for the measurement advice, that makes me feel a little more at ease... As far as the test dosage, that's a pretty good and practical solution, i've thought of that before, but (at the risk of sounding stupid here) i wasn't sure if i would have problems accurately measuring that dosage b/c the test is test 250, so would it just be 1.5ml instead of 1?
