INTRODUCTION
Clenbuterol is a chemical with a steroid-like action, used by bodybuilders, athletes, and dieters.
It was originally designed for use on animals and is currently used as a bronchodilator, mainly on horses, to alleviate breathing disorders e.g. asthma. It was introduced about ten years ago for use on humans with ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and can suppress the appetite for up to 9 hours.
Clenbuterol works by enhancing muscle gain (anabolic effect) as well as increasing the rate of fat burning (catabolism) by increasing the body’s temperature (thermogenesis), raising blood pressure, and reducing the effectiveness of insulin. See below for further details of these mechanisms.It therefore allows the user to increase weight loss without a great reduction in food intake and is claimed to add to the hard appearance and ‘cut’ of muscles.
In the sports world the drug is banned by the World Anti Doping Agency (WADA) and the IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federations) except in exceptional circumstances for medical reasons. Apparently, 60% of US athletes claim to have exercise-induced asthma and are allowed to take a drug called Ventipulmin which contains a small amount of Clenbuterol. However, note that several athletes have received suspensions for using Clenbuterol.
In humans, the drug has been used very recently in conjunction with a heart assist device on patients with heart failure to stimulate muscle regeneration. This research has met with some success and is being continued in, for example, the UK and Canada.
Different people react differently to Clenbuterol. It is therefore advisable for new users to take small doses at first and gradually, day by day, work up to a suitable dose, to minimise the side effects. It is also advisable to gradually wind down the dose towards the end of each dosage cycle to reduce the ‘crash’ commonly experienced on sudden stoppage. (See below for further details of dose rate recommendations).
