Steroids are used for medical purposes, but can like any other drug they can be abused. The doses that a steroid abuser can go to as high as 100 times more than what a medical doctor can prescribe for a given medical condition.

There are different forms of steroids available, they come in the form of tablets, liquids, gels, creams and can also be injected intramuscularly.

Abuse of anabolic steroids has quite a number of adverse side effects such as cancer of the liver and heart conditions that may cause heart attacks, of because I have only named an iota of them. As I said, there are quite a number that vary from patient to patient.

Anabolic steroid abuse is still in need of in-depth research of possible effective treatments that can be availed to abusers. Physicians who've dealt with patients who've gone through withdrawal while dealing with steroid abuse have observed that in some cases supportive therapy proved to be very efficient. The patients are prepared mentally about what to expect while going through withdrawal and more care is given to patients who may have suicidal thoughts.

Hospitalization may be required for patients with severe symptoms and some may be put on medication. Steroid abuse has been known to disrupt the normal activities and condition of the hormonal system of the body. However there is medication available to counter it by reversing these effects.

There are also medications that target specific symptoms of withdrawal and deal with them individually which has had very positive results.

Prevention is the best medicine is not just another saying by some wise guy who did not know what he was talking about. It is better than the most high class expensive healthcare program available on earth.
Prevention can be done through sensitizing people about the dangers of steroid abuse. A further step can be taken by testing students in school especially kids in high school for substance abuse. It is better to sensitize kids so that they won't succumb to pressure from peers and the need to have a humongous muscular body.

They need to know that a healthy lifestyle of exercise and nutrition is all it takes to look and feel great. Adolescents tend to feel that all adults want to do is literally suck out all the fun from their lives, by the time your done with introducing yourself to them, their minds have probably switched you off automatically. It is advised to give both sides of the story, the pros as well as the cons. Of cause the aim to ensure none of them becomes an addict hence emphasize more on the life threatening side effects.

Coaches and trainers also play a very important role as statistics show that athletes and generally sportsmen have a higher chance of becoming an addict as compared to people in other professions that require less if any physical fitness and vigorous activities. Trainers need to emphasize on strengths training and train people on natural and yet effective methods of building muscles.

Anabolic steroid abuse doesn't just affect the addict, but it turns families, careers, spouses and society in general into victims.
