Effects and Dosage
Clenbuterol is a β2 agonist with some structural and pharmacological similarities to epinephrine and salbutamol, but its effects are more potent and longer-lasting as a stimulant and thermogenic drug. It causes an increase in aerobic capacity, central nervous system stimulation, and an increase in blood pressure and oxygen transportation. It increases the rate at which body fat is metabolized while increasing the body's BMR. It is commonly used for smooth muscle-relaxant properties. This means it is a bronchodilator and tocolytic.
Clenbuterol is usually used in dosages from 20-60 micrograms (μg) a day when prescribed. A dose of about 20 μg (women) or 40 μg (men) should never be exceeded in a day.
Clenbuterol is also prescribed for treatment of horses; however, equine use is usually the liquid form of clenbuterol.

“Consider what effects which might conceivably have practical bearings we conceive the object of our conception to have. Then our conception of these effects is the whole of our conception of the object.”
