Steroid users who inject the drugs with a needle may be at greater risk for contracting HIV (human immunodeficiency virus), the virus that causes AIDS, if they share needles with other users. They are also at greater risk for contracting hepatitis, a disease of the liver. This is particularly scary because it can be impossible to tell if your friend or an athlete on your team is sick. It's not enough to take their word for it; sharing needles is never safe.
Anabolic steroids are so controversial because of all the health risks associated with them. Most are illegal and are banned by professional sports organizations and medical associations. If an athlete is caught using steroids, his or her career can be destroyed.
Some people combine or "stack" anabolic steroids with other drugs. Because it is difficult to understand how the drugs interact, there is the possibility of taking a deadly combination. Just as many medications should not be taken together, anabolic steroids have the same potential for negative interactions. Emergency departments have reported cases of vomiting, tremors, dizziness, and even coma (unconsciousness) when patients were admitted after taking combinations of steroids.
