The uses of Clenbuterol are varied, including the uses of the same as a bronchodilator, and as a lypolitic. Clenbuterol falls in the broad category of the sympathomimetics, which are drugs that stimulate the various smooth muscles, and including the mucous membranes, and inhibit the smooth muscles of the bronchial tree. Such uses of Clenbuterol are applied in the field of asthma or other breathing disorder treatments.

Clenbuterol is specifically categorized as a lypolitic, which is a fat burning agent. In effect, what Clenbuterol does is to mobilize the free fat cells from the adipose tissues, and convert them into energy. Apart from this it stimulates the glycogenolysis process of the breakdown of glucose in the liver and muscle. Such effects of the drug have significant impact on the overall fat composition in the body, which in turn helps to create leaner, fat free muscles.

Clenbuterol also exhibits anabolic activity, and acts similar to ephedrine. Clenbuterol remains in the body for days at end, unlike any other drug that lasts for a few hours, which indicates a more effective fat mobilization process throughout the day. The use of Clenbuterol as a fat burning and anabolic drug is seen in the sphere of body building and athletics. Many body builders take such drugs for an increase in lean muscle and decrease in overall fat, however, the effects of Clenbuterol are temporary, for about 3-4 weeks, and should not be used for longer periods of time as it has certain side effects.

Clenbuterol Hydrochloride or Clen as it is known for short, comes in tablets and liquid, though the liquid is meant for horses, and is very hard to dose correctly for humans. Tablets come in 20 or 40mcg doses, but as men take 80-160mcg a day in one dose, and women take 80-120mcg a day in one dose, why would anyone want the 20mcg tablets.

Clenbuterol can only safely be taken for three weeks, after that the beta 2 receptors become worn out and the Clenbuterol is doing nothing to help, after a three week cycle of Clenbuterol, one must stop for another three weeks to let the beta 2 receptors recover. If you want to take Clenbuterol for longer than three weeks, you must take ketotifen tablets, 2-3mg a day of Ketotifen, taken before bed (it makes you very drowsy), means you can use Clenbuterol for 6-8 weeks without a break.

People often stack (combine) Clenbuterol Hydrochloride tablets with T3 Cytomel, combined Clenbuterol and T3 Cytomel tablets at the same time for 3 weeks will burn an amazing amount of fat. The T3 Cytomel stimulates your thyroid, when your thyroid is stimulated your metabolism rises and you burn fat extremely quickly. T3 Cytomel is also only ever used for three weeks, and then stopped for three weeks, taking Ketotifen does not mean that you can take T3 Cytomel for longer than three weeks.
