Abstract:

IntroductionCurrent evidence indicates an alarming increase in topical steroid (TS) misuse in India. Data regarding the magnitude and characteristics of this problem in rural India, where 68% of the population resides, are insufficient. This study analyses the magnitude, causes, characteristics and consequences of TS misuse in rural India. It also examines the association between TS misuse and patients’ perception of skin disease.MethodsA mixed-method observational study was conducted among the attendees of the dermatology outpatient department in a rural North Indian hospital.

Abstract:

The prescription and use of steroids, both corticosteroids and anabolic steroids, present significant ethical challenges in medical practice. While corticosteroids are integral in managing inflammatory conditions, their long-term use is associated with considerable side effects, necessitating careful medical supervision. Anabolic steroids, originally developed for medical purposes, are often misused for performance enhancement, raising concerns about health risks, fairness in sports, and informed consent. This review explores the ethical implications of steroid prescriptions, focusing on the b

Abstract:

<em>The term steroid means molecule having varying physiological properties. Initially steroids were isolated from adrenal gland and were thought to use in Addison disease. Now due to its potent anti-inflammatory and immune modulating properties steroids are used in many clinical problems. Testosterone exerts its effect on both reproductive and non-reproductive tissues. It is mostly used to increase muscle strength, increase muscle mass, decreased recovery time and promote healing. People may experience some side effects like euphoria, aggressive behavior and diminished fatigue during steroid

Abstract Anabolic androgenic steroids (AAS) are misused to a high extent in sports by athletes to improve their physical performance. Sports federations consider the use of these drugs in sports as doping. The misuse of AAS is controlled by detection of the parent AAS (when excreted into urine) and (or) their metabolites in urine of athletes. I present a review of the metabolism of AAS. Testosterone is the principal androgenic steroid and its metabolism is compared with that of AAS.
