So you're new to steroids and you see different sources offering various types of orals. Which kind do I choose? Hopefully after you read this you can make an educated decision for yourself.
Always choose tabs! Why you ask? Because tabs are the all around best choice. Tabs can be split in half for more accurate half dosing, and if stored right carry a rather long shelf life. Tabs are a more expensive and complicated process for the source. The only con to tabs is if they are not very well pressed they can be crumbly which is not good for splitting.
The next best option is caps. Gel cap orals are just as good as tabs for accurate dosing, but you cannot split the dose which limits you to how you can use them. Caps also carry a decent shelf life if properly stored.
The next option is liquid orals which are the least desirable. Reason being is no matter how well you shake it, and how well you measure it the dosing will always vary from dose to dose. It may be 50mg per ml and this dose you get 43mg and the next dose is 55mg. Liquid also has the shortest shelf life of the three as well. Liquids are often times produced because they are the simplest and cheapest method for producing orals.
I have used all three types of orals, and have had great success with each one. However for stable blood levels, longer shelf life, and ease of use tabs are superior. Also the way I see it is if a source has invested the money for pill presses, and goes through the longer process of mixing and pressing out tabs then that's someone who more likely takes pride in their work and in the quality of their product. But that's not to say the guy making caps or liquids isn't because many do as well.
