Steroids in general are legal in the U.S. only via prescription by a doctor. In sports they are generally illegal regardless.
The people going to jail are the people selling and prescribing the drugs illegally.
Keep in mind there are different types of steroids and the use of some may be allowed depending on the situation or sport. Anabolic steroids for example are used illegally to raise testosterone levels and build muscle mass.

i do no longer think of it fairly is criminal. criminal steroids are ones that a doctor prescribes. Steroids could make men very violent and intensely reliable and unsafe. wager in case you probably did no longer like the guy, you may desire to take a image of the field and the contents and take it to police and ask in case you delivers coaching and stay nameless. are you able to upload cellular telephone or digital camera photographs to a working laptop or computing gadget? If no longer, then use a disposable digital camera and take photographs and swap the digital camera over to the police. tell them that in the event that they get a seek warrant to return whilst he's no longer living house so which you and your mom are actually not in threat. be careful and attempt to maintain your individual identity quiet. reliable success.

They are illegal unless it is given for medical treatment but that is usally a different kind of steroid. The steroid that athletes use are anabolic steroids and medical ones are catabolic steroids. Catabolics that are used medicinally are cortisone, prednisone and prednisolne etc.

They are 'prescription drugs`.
Unless they've been ordered for you by
your Doctor, it's against the law for you
to have or to take them.

In sports they are illegal. I wouldnt reccommend you take them anyway.
