Hey guys long time no post been really busy! But, I recently did 2 DNP cycle one with the worst side effect of my life and one with only feeling hot as my side effect. So, I wanted to make this thread and inform people on proper use of DNP
Cycle 1
Starting stats
5'5
197lb
Around 19% body fat I guess not sure but no six pack just the out side linings lol
Ok I was writing down on a journal so I will just breaf it because its a lot of info and I hope it helps a few people out there
-I used DNP crystal 250mg casuals from a legit source(took them each with the meal)
-A clean diet
- and low cardio


Day-1
Took one 250mg
Nothing
2 gallons of water
Day-2
Took one 250mg
Slight random heat flashes
2.1 gallons of water

Day-3
Took one 250mg
Feel slightly hotter, a few more random hot flashes, and a mild headache
2 gallons

Day 4
Took 500mg 1 in the morning and one around 3pm
Last night was hard to sleep kept waking up feeling super got not sweating but really hot. Had a headache that wouldn't go away and felt like vomiting while having a mild stomach ache as well
Did intense cardio at the gym for an hour then went into the stem room. After being in for about 3min felt so hot that I had to get out and get into freezing cold water and even then still felt super hot.
2 gallons

Day 5
I took 500mg once I gain split am and pm
No cardio, just went to work and went straight home took the pills with no food and had only 1 cup of water did not feel dehydrated. Had felt hot, headache, like vomiting, and stomach pain.
1-2cups of water

Day 6
Droped back down to 250mg
Couldn't sleep kept waking up every few min. Ether because I was hot, stomach pain, or because diarrhea. I called out of work and slept all day I mean from 11pm the night before too 9pm today. But I kept waking up because of the disconcert.
2.3 gallons of water

Day 7
I stopped taking them I have black stool(black diarrhea because bleeding in the stomach), severely dehydrated from the high body temp, and the diarrhea. Also started getting and allergic reaction and got an itchy rash all over my legs, back, chest, and scalp.

Day 8
My friend took me too the doctor. He ask me questions but I was so dehydrated I couldn't look straight and kept answering with random shit I mean random. So I went to the doctor they did blood work and everything came back good. But, since I was so dehydrated they out me on I.V fluid. After and hour I was fully aware of my surroundings again. She told me to take Benadryl for the rash and it would be gone in a week or two.

So I thought it was finally over but boy was I wrong the worst was yet to come...

Day 9
Just itchy

Day 10
Just itchy

Day 11
I was sleeping and around 3am I woke up holding my hand wanting to scream out in pain from 1-10 of the worst pain I have felt I would give it a solid 7.8 it felt like some one had just kept breaking my fingers and the pain would not go away. Eventually it subsided but the pain was around a 3 all next day

Day 12
Once again around 2:39am the pain came back so bad I could not stand it got up went to Walgreens got some asprin and Ben-gay
Took 3 asprin and Ben-gay all over my hads to numb the pain and too 2 Benadryl to fall back asleep

Day 13
No pain during the day but once again at night had the worst pain yet I would give it a 8.5 it almost made me cry honestly that how bad the pain was I got up and walked around and actually put my hands and super hot water just to feel a different kind of pain. Once again took the Benadryl, asprin, and Ben gay and passed out. Out of no where I had no nerve pain the next day and I thought it was finally over but no...

Day 14
Woke up feeling even worst nerve pain but this time in my toes from 1-10 I would give it a 9.
Till
Day 19
The nerve pain in my feet was so bad I couldn't stand for more than 10mins without having to sit down. I had made up my mind that if It doesn't get better by tomorrow I am going to the doctor. I have not had more than 4 hours of sleep because of the pain. "To give you an example of how bad the pain was and I'm not lieing here... i made up my mind if they told me it was permanent nerve damage that I would tell them to amputate my toes"

Luckily 2 days later it went away

I'm only writing this review on here because honestly I don't want anyone to go through that kind of pain my girlfriend thought I was going to die and honestly the doctor said 2 more days like I was and I wouldn't be here
This baby needs to be treated with respect.
End result
182lb but I lost some muscle

Now on cycle number two which I did 2 months later it went much better
Start stats
185lb
I took lots of precaughtions
1-vitamins( 1 pill every day)
1-v8( a whole small bottle)
1-small Gatorade to help prevent diarrhea
3-gallons of water a day
1-gallon of water per hour of workout
- take the DNP with meal never alone
-starting day 4 take Benadryl to help prevent allergic reaction and help sleep

Day 1- 1 pill nothing

Day 2- 1 pill mild heat flashes

Day 3- 1 pill warm all day but nothing I could handle

Day 4- 500mg split warm but nothing I couldn't handle

Day 5- 500mg split hot all day. Was really hot all night but slept with a fan blowing in my face so slept like a baby

Day 6- 500mg spilt hot all day and night woke up and my sheets where damp but not super wet like some people clam( weighed my self 179)

Day 7- 500mg split last day super hot but keep drinking cold water so it bring my temp back down. Bed was damp once again but not super bad. Weight myself and reached my goal of 175lb.

Followed my precautions for day8-12 just to make sure none of the nerve pain would happen because to be honest I was scared to feel that pain I would gladly get shot instead of the nerve pain. But, luckily with all the precautions I took in the secound cycle was only increase temp. Other than that I was good to go.

So if you plan to go on a DNP cycle please follow these rules

200-250mg for the first 3-4 days
Drink at least 3 gallons of water
Take DNP with a meal
Gatorade to help with diarrhea
V8 for the potassium
Benadryl to avoid allergic reaction
Avoid hot places example steam room
ONLY USE DNP IF YOU ARE EXPERIENCED( I have 6 steriods cycle under my belt, 9 years of weight lifting, and 3DNP cycle) they do work but it can kill my friends
And if you feel sick like I was don't wait and just go to the doctor!!!!

Well I hopes this helps some people and if you guys have any questions I would be more than happy answer them.
 
in my honest opinion, DON'T USE DNP! omg hats off to you for using it at all.

from wiki:

Uses

Commercial DNP is primarily used for scientific research and in manufacturing. It has been used at times to make dyes, other organic chemicals, and wood preservatives. DNP is a chemical intermediate in the production of some herbicides including dinoseb and dinoterb. It has also been used to make photographic developer and explosives.
 
Honestly skywalk I agree unless you are doing some compitions or photo shoot with lots of muscle mass on you then why use dnp. The more muscle mass you have the more fat you will burn. So I beginner with not much muscle should avoid it. It can kill I almost had to find out the hard way my self. But thank you bro I am glad I did not die as well. But it can be used safely I mean. The secound round with all the precautions I took it was a smooth ride. At the moment I'm at 176lb not sure body far wise but I have my v cut and sick pack back. Plus at 5 foot 5in 176lb is great for my size. All in all if people decide to use dnp I just wanted to give them what can happen.

The nerve pain sucks bro honestly the 12lb I lost in 7 days was not worth the weeks of suffering

Glad your still here...

This stuff should not be trifled with...No one really knows the long term effects.

I ran a few low dose (longer cycles) when I was injured from a motorcycle crash... and couldnt train.

A year later Im having cataracts removed. I attribute the cataracts too either DNP or Clomid... or both.

However, i have been using Clomid for years and had no signs of cataracts till messing with DNP. It's poison... STAY AWAY.
 
SW, BEZ, WIS, I must compliment each one of you for providing such strong advice! (your points are also well documented in the literature and highlights just how dangerous DNP can be)

OP I gotta compliment you for such thorough documentation of what not to do and why!

:)

loveyourbody, Love Your Body more! dont f- with dnp!
 
Beezil- luckily I didn't get that side effect but it is common. At least it's curable but I wish you the best.
Wiscon-I just wanted to try and see if its possible to have a smooth cycle. It's possible but very hard to do.
Dr Jim- thank you very much for te compliment. I just read so many threads that dnp is not dangerous and easy to handle. But, I want people to know that it can kill and easily.
Skywalk- thanks for te advice bro. Dont worry I will never do dnp again the suffering is just not worth the weight you lose. From now on sticking I the old dashing cardio and diet to lose weight.

Just hope people read this before they run dnp
 
Thank you... its just sad that at 39... i am having interoccular lens placed in my eyes... (1) 2 weeks ago and (1) in 2 weeks.

FYI, it is curable but not with its own nuances and possible side effects. For instance... my vision was better than 20/20 with no astigmatism... in both eyes prior to the cataracts. I shot national match high power rifles, fly planes, and race motorcycles. All of that is sidelined now.... at least for awhile.

Why you ask??

The first lens was removed and replaced and the surgeon introduced a slight astigmatism... which is part of the procedure... well... turns out.. too much was introduced and now i cant focus. Now possible PRK, lasik, and or cornea work will be necessary to bring back my distance focus... and reading glasses will be necessary.

FYI... when having cataract removal done... a new interoccular lens is placed in the sac of your eye. this lens is rigid and does not flex like the lens you were born with. Therefore, you choose distance or close; visual acuity.

Dont take for granted what you were born with... just to loose a few pounds or keep in shape. Bad mistake on my part. A few weeks running/swimming and I would have been right back where i was before the accident.

I go in to length about this to keep others from making the same stupid mistake!

DNP BEWARE!!!

Beezil- I honestly did not know that bro. And I agree, I know that I am staying away from DNP personally. Luckily I had no long term side effect and I am really sorry to hear what you are going through. Hopefully we can make some people aware of the high risk of dnp. I know it might take a month to lose the weight we want instead of a few days but at least you know you did it the right way and will have no side effect. I wish you the best bro. Did you have any other side effects?

Roger that, SIr!

I did not have any additional sides... I followed many posts by an old vet; Concilliator... who was very knowledgeable on DNP, and I stayed very conservative using only 1 cap a day. I wasnt overweight just wanted to maintain while i was bed ridden.
DNP worked great and I didnt have adverse side effects besides a little heat. But it wasnt intolerable.
Then the vision issues surfaced while visiting the ophthalmologist. He actually saw the deposits on the lens before i noticed the lack of vision.
We let it play out the remainder of the year... and now surgery is necessary to preserve the quality of life i had before. I should say... at least try and retain that quality of life.

I have used both as well my friend. I'm guessing then its more of person to person kind of deal as well. With powder dnp I was able to do 10 days at 600mg. Only side extremely hot

With crystal I can't go above 250mg with out getting the side I mentioned at the beginning

the efffects of DNP, much like any AAS or pharmaceutical drug, is going to vary person to person based on many factors.

Best thing to note here is... DNP is a poison even at small doses.

I know all things can kill you at large doses... even drinking too much water.
 
i always eat clean.

but when taking DNP you will notice a slight craving for more carbs.

then the heat comes on. so its a balancing act.

or better yet. don't even take it.
