Fherbolico

Fherbolico (also known as Fherbolico Forte) is a veterinary product, not a drug for human use. It is a stable formulation containing two active ingredients:

• Nandrolone phenylpropionate: A type of anabolic steroid.

• Ivermectin: A medication used to control parasites.

Purpose and Use (as a Veterinary Product)

Fherbolico is indicated for the "integral management" of livestock, specifically cattle, when the goal is to increase weight and control parasites simultaneously. The benefits are achieved by:

• Increased weight gain: This is facilitated by the anabolic properties of nandrolone, which improves food conversion efficiency.

• Parasite control: The ivermectin component helps to control a wide range of parasites, including gastrointestinal and lung nematodes, fly larvae, and various mites and lice.

Important Considerations for Human Use

The provided information strongly indicates that Fherbolico is not intended for human consumption. Using a veterinary product on humans is extremely dangerous and can lead to severe health consequences. The following information is provided for educational purposes about the components and their potential effects, not as a guide for use.

Side Effects and Benefits (General for the Components)

The benefits and side effects are primarily associated with the nandrolone component, as ivermectin is for parasite control.

• Potential Benefits (Nandrolone):

  • Increased muscle mass and strength.

  • Improved appetite.

  • Increased red blood cell production.

  • Faster recovery from injuries.

• Potential Side Effects (Nandrolone):

  • Cardiovascular: High blood pressure, increased risk of heart disease.

  • Hormonal: Suppression of natural testosterone production, gynecomastia (development of breast tissue in males), and testicular atrophy.

  • Hepatic (Liver): While nandrolone is generally considered less liver-toxic than some other oral steroids, it can still cause liver damage.

  • Dermatological: Acne, oily skin, hair loss (androgenic alopecia).

  • Psychological: Mood swings, aggression ("roid rage"), depression.

  • Virilization (in females): Deepening of the voice, clitoral enlargement, and increased body hair.

Dosage and Administration (for veterinary use)

For cattle, the dosage is 1 ml per 50 kg of live weight. It is administered via intramuscular or subcutaneous injection. The frequency is suggested as a repeat treatment 30 days after the first application, or as needed for reinfestation. This is not a human dosage.

Half-Life and Detection Time

The half-life and detection time would be related to the nandrolone phenylpropionate component. Nandrolone phenylpropionate has a relatively short half-life compared to other esters like nandrolone decanoate.

• Half-Life: Approximately 4-5 days.

• Detection Time: Nandrolone metabolites can be detected in the urine for a very long time, often up to 12 months or more, especially with repeated use. This is due to the slow excretion of its metabolites.

Sterogenic, Progestogenic, and Prolactin Effects

• Sterogenic: Nandrolone is an anabolic-androgenic steroid, so it has strong sterogenic effects. It acts on the androgen receptor to promote muscle growth and other male characteristics.

• Progestogenic: Nandrolone is a progestin. It can directly activate the progesterone receptor. This can contribute to some of its side effects, such as the suppression of natural testosterone production and the potential for gynecomastia.

• Prolactin: Nandrolone's progestogenic activity can lead to an increase in prolactin levels. Elevated prolactin can cause various issues, including:

  • Lactation (galactorrhea)

  • Loss of libido

  • Erectile dysfunction

  • Infertility

Anabolic-Androgenic Ratio

The anabolic-androgenic ratio of nandrolone is approximately 10:1. This means it is considered to be a much more anabolic (muscle-building) compound than it is androgenic (masculinizing). However, it is still a powerful androgen and carries a significant risk of androgenic side effects.
