Liquid orals VS tabs

**ram97!** · 02-18-2013, 04:46 AM

I was wondering if some of you vets out there could weigh in on something I have been looking into. And that is what are the pros and cons to liquid orals (var,winny etc) over the tabs. Some things that are obvious are that tabs are easy to use no taste issues eaiser to store and hide. But how but effectiveness is tabs better than liquid? Just wanting some info and opinions from guys who have used both.

Potency is same, tabs/caps are more convenient but can't be split up if caps. Liquids can be made to taste good. Liquid can be dosed easier and split up easier though.

If I'm taking anything but dbol which has to be taken frequently, I don't have a preference, cause I usually just dose in the am and pm. Dbol in caps is nice, I can keep a few in my pocket all day.

The only time liquids fall short is if they aren't suspended properly. If the substance isn't suspended evenly, especially after a good shaking, you don't know WHAT kind of dose you are getting. It's easy to spot quality liquid orals just by looking at them. You can tell if the lab really knows their shit or if it come from some dude trying to pay his way through college who doesn't know his ass from a hole in the ground.

I've only ever used liquid chems, seems like liquid orals that I see cost way more than the tabs that are offered out there so I always just end up getting tabs. Plus I feel like tabs are going to be doses more accurately (usually) also I don't like how most liquid are 50+mg/ml... Makes doing more of a pain cause every little variance is going to make a big difference in dosing.

What do you notice between a good liquid and bad liquid oral?

Lol, good point.

Sources should be using medical suspension liquids. Ie the ones that are used to suspend actual medicine.

some type of oral suspending vehicle. compounding pharmacies use it for stuff like kids meds. they put the meds into a flavored syrup that suspends the medicine and ensures it's properly distrubuted. It's accurate enough for childrens meds so should be adequate for our uses as well.

Same idea as peg. When making a suspension you want you suspending vehicle, whether it be peg, water, a combination of the two, or something totally different to have as similar specific gravity as possible to the product you're suspending.
