Drinking it or shooting it will give you same effect. Drinking it is a matter of preference. I prefer drinking it for two reasons, who feels like shooting everyday,and second the painful injections with the possability of an abcess. I received an abcess from a pharmacy grade version under strict regulations, i heard worse from people who did vet versions. It is a hit and miss with infections from water based steriods,why take the chance drink up. And know their isnt any added stress to liver drinking it, i would worry more about what it does to your cholestrol. It raises your bad cholestrol up to 35% higher. Stay on for only two months. hope this helps you.
