Anabolic Steroid Drug Test (Urine)

The Anabolic Steroid Drug Test (Urine) will identify the presence or absence of more than fifty (50) anabolic steroids and their metabolites, including prohormones and designer steroids.  The detection window for anabolic steroids depends on the specific steroid being used and the way it is administered.  In general, injected steroids are detectable for a longer period of time than those taken orally.  A confirmed positive result for any anabolic steroids or metabolite is considered evidence of use or direct exposure.

This test requires a standard urine sample that can be collected at the Any Lab Test Now store location of your choice.

Test Details

Anabolic androgenic steroids are derived from the male hormone, testosterone, and are used legally to treat problems such as delayed puberty or low testosterone.  The steroids can enhance the body by building more muscle, making bones and muscles stronger, lowering body fat and increasing endurance.  Common anabolic steroid medicines include fluoxymeterone (such as Holtestin) and nandrolone (such as Durabolin).  Over time individuals who use these steroids may exhibit mental and emotional side effects including violent behavior, personality changes, mood swings between depression and anxiety and paranoia.  They can also cause severe physical symptoms, such as heart attack, high blood pressure and liver disease

Anabolic steroid use to improve athletic performance has been detected in several Olympic and professional athletes over the years.  For these athletes, and for some high school and college athletes, the use of steroids, also called “doping”, to enhance performance is considered to provide an unfair advantage and is against International Olympic Committee rules, most professional athletic organizations’ rules and high school/college athletic program rules.  To ensure that athletes are not doping many organizations that supervise and manage athletes may test for anabolic steroid use.
