ACTOVEGIN ®
$27.00 – $110.00
Actovegin is available in pills/tablets and ampules/injections.
Actovegin is a highly filtered extract obtained from calf blood which enhances aerobic oxidation in mammals. It is also rich in iron, manganese, amino acids, and other nutrients that are important in achieving the physiological transformations that dopers are seeking to achieve.
On-label indications:
- Treatment of peripheral artery disease and strokes
- Treatment of cognitive disturbances after stroke to ulcers
In research studies, Actovegin has been shown to exert insulin-like activity, such as stimulating the transport of glucose in the body, as well as glucose oxidation. This supplement is supposed to be similar in its effects to insulin – the naturally occurring hormone that helps transport glucose into the cells. Because it is one of the most anabolic substances known to man, insulin is banned in sports (for non-diabetics) and exceedingly dangerous – even fatal – in high dosages. Therefore, Actovegin is considered as a potentially performance-enhancing drug for athletes, e.g. Lans Armstrong and Tiger Woods have taken it.
Currently, Actovegin is NOT on the World Anti-doping Agency’s (WADA) prohibitied substance list. However, WADA does ban injections of any substance, including Actovegin, exceeding 50 ml every six hours.

This product is fairly priced and arrived quickly. actually the first package was delayed so they resent a second one and somehow i ended up with two. Thats great service. i plan on buying more soon and paying the difference on shipping the second package.
as for the product i use it after periods of dehydration and intense workout and it seems to get me back to baseline quickly. i will be experimenting more with it soon.
