Triacana

Triacana is a member of thyroid hormone preparation group. It contains substances such as L-tri-iodthyronine(L-T3) and L-T4 (L-thyroxin). It is generally used as a treatment of hyperthyroidism and obesity. In hyperthyroidism the thyroid gland functions abnormally and the thyroid hormone is secreted in amounts that are above the average. The thyroid-stimulating hormone present in Triacana produces more LT3 and LT4 by stimulating the thyroid gland. So the use of Triacana can bring this secretion to a normal level.

Triacana became popular among the body builders in the 1970s and was better known for its lipolytic effect. The body temperature increased substantially by the intake of Triacana which results in the burning of the fats in considerable amounts. This feature attracted the bodybuilders towards using the drug. The drug is also popular choice among the athletes for its fat burning property. Triacana is very harmless to health and body because it is not a strong one like the other steroids. It is well known among the athletes as being a strong fat burning thyroid hormone preparation but that is not the case. Though it prepares the fat burning thyroid hormone, this preparation is very mild. This makes it a harmless drug. Triacana can not be compared with other LT3 thyroid hormone compounds such as cytomel and thybon because of the fact that triacana has much lower effect than that of the other ones.

Some of the athletes use Triacana for a period of one month while the others use in for longer periods of time. So there is a great variation in use of it. This is because of the fact that some of them fear of a thyroid dysfunction. If used as 0.6 mg per day, the TSH release can be reduced to the normal level whereas higher dosage quantity can make the releases stop completely.

Like other steroids, there are various side effects associated with the use of Triacana. Some of them being tremors, irregular heartbeat, dizziness, restlessness, palpitations and nervousness etc. These side effects are mostly faced in start of the use of Triacana. So if the dosage amount is increased slowly and uniformly, then there are lesser chances of having these side effects. Once you become regular in its use, these side effects start to decrease slowly. When planning to end the intake, one should avoid a sudden quitting and slowly decrease the intake quantity on a daily basis. In this way one would not face any problem with regard to quitting of the drug.

So it could be said that Triacana is a safe drug if taken in proper amounts and could be used for longer periods of time. As it prepares the thyroid hormones in mild quantities, it is a good alternative of the ones that are stronger in this regard and hence is less prone to side effects. Make sure that you use it in right quantities so that you do not face the side effects. The bodybuilders and the athletes in order to do something extraordinary tend to use it in larger quantity that results in various side effects and causes harm to their health and body.
