Nandrolone phenylpropionate
Anabolic steroidsAlso known as NPP, Durabolin
The short-ester nandrolone, injected every few days instead of weekly.
How it works
The same nandrolone as the decanoate, on a much shorter ester. Levels rise and fall faster, which makes an unwanted effect easier to back out of.
In the body
No plasma curve is shown for this compound.
No published human pharmacokinetic study measures this directly. Duration of action is given as around 10 days, but a duration is not a half-life and the two are not interchangeable, so no curve is drawn. Expect depot release considerably faster than the decanoate, on the strength of the shorter ester alone.
Doses
No clinical dosing exists for this ester at these amounts.
