Methandienone API Supplier & Exporter — India

CAS 72-63-9 | Bulk sourcing for pharmaceutical companies, distributors and qualified importers.

Methandienone, also catalogued as methandrostenolone, is a 17-alpha-alkylated derivative of testosterone with an additional double bond between carbons 1 and 2. The 17-alpha methylation is what permits oral administration, and the added double bond alters the aromatisation profile relative to testosterone.

Quality Documentation — What to Request

Request assay by HPLC, melting point, loss on drying and related substances. The melting point range is a useful and inexpensive authenticity screen for this compound, since substituted material rarely matches the expected range. For tablet formulation, confirm particle size distribution before the order rather than discovering a compression problem in production.

Import, Licensing & Logistics

Controlled in most markets with import licensing required. Methandienone is among the most widely counterfeited steroid APIs, so batch traceability to a named manufacturer should be treated as a minimum requirement rather than an optional extra.

Who Buys Methandienone API

Licensed pharmaceutical manufacturers producing oral solid-dose preparations.

Melting Point as an Authenticity Screen

Methandienone is among the most frequently counterfeited steroid APIs in circulation, commonly substituted with cheaper testosterone esters. Melting point range is a cheap and effective first screen, because substituted material rarely matches the expected range even when the certificate says otherwise. Run it on first receipt from any new source before accepting the consignment into stock, and insist on batch traceability to a named manufacturer rather than a trading house.

Stability, Storage & Retest

Esterified anabolic APIs are chemically stable as dry powders but hydrolyse slowly in the presence of moisture, which regenerates the parent steroid and shifts the release profile of the finished preparation. Store sealed with the original desiccant, and do not decant into secondary containers before use. Retest intervals are typically set at 24 to 36 months depending on the ester, and the retest date rather than a manufacture date should appear on the Certificate of Analysis.

Export Process & Lead Time

Controlled substance consignments require an import licence issued in the destination country before despatch, and in most cases a matching export authorisation from the Indian authorities. Build four to eight weeks into your schedule for this, since the export authorisation cannot be applied for until the import licence is issued. Air freight is standard; sea freight is rarely used for controlled APIs because of the extended chain-of-custody exposure.

Incoming Goods Inspection

Your incoming goods check should cover appearance against the specification, identification by IR or HPLC retention time against a reference standard, and assay. For esters, free parent steroid content is worth running on first receipt from any new source even if the Certificate of Analysis reports it, because this is the parameter that most often differs between the certificate and the material.

Frequently Asked Questions

What documentation comes with Methandienone API?

Batch Certificate of Analysis, product specification and SDS where available for the specific source, plus export documentation including country of origin certificate for international consignments.

What is the minimum order quantity?

MOQ depends on specification, packaging and destination. Send your requirement and we will confirm the applicable minimum with your quotation.

Can you ship Methandienone API to my country?

Import permissions differ by destination and several markets restrict this material. Confirm your national requirements before ordering and we will advise whether we can supply into that territory.

How is pricing determined?

Pricing reflects quantity, specification, packaging and destination. Send your full requirement rather than a quantity alone so the quotation is accurate.
