Dianabol

Dianabol (Methandienone) was developed by pharma company CIBA in 1955 for androgen replacement therapy. American Olympic doctor John Ziegler is credited with introducing the steroid to athletes to try and get a leg up on their Russian rivals. He liked that it could be orally taken, taking away the injecting aspect. It was also used in the 1960s by college and pro football players.
