As with any drug, people react differently. It is therefore impossible to say exactly what will happen to a person who uses anabolic steroids. There has not been a lot of research in this area, because when athletes take steroids they often do so in large doses and it would be unethical to conduct trials of such doses on humans. A test to determine this includes medical examinations and endocrine tests. 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.
