There are dangers of using black market products that may be diluted with other substances, some of which may be toxic. Some steroids come in tablet form, while others are injected into the muscle. Names of steroids include halotestin, orabolin, proviron, primobolan, decadurabolin, anapolon, and sustanon. Some anabolic steroids may be fake, labeled incorrectly or produced for use on animals. Some names of steroids, which are made for use on animals, are boldebal-H, nandrabolin, spectriol, drive, stanabol and stanozolol.
Anabolic steroids are very different from corticosteroids such as prednisone, used to treat asthma.
There is no safe way to monitor anabolic steroid users, long term effects of anabolic steroids are also unknown. When steroids are being used for medical purposes, they are used when other drugs have been unsuccessful. Beta 2 agonists are most commonly found in some of the medications used to treat asthma. They do not, however, have the same side effects on the body as steroidal anabolic agents. Side effects of beta 2 agonists include tremors, tachycardia, palpitations, hypertension, headaches, nausea, flushes, sweating, and muscle cramps, twitching, restlessness, dizziness and sleep disturbance.
