Types of steroids, CancerBACUP:"Steroids are hormonal substances, naturally produced in the body by the adrenal glands above the kidney and by reproductive organs. There are many different types of steroids and they all have different effects on the body. Some types of steroids help destroy some types of cancer cells, and can make chemotherapy more effective. Common types of steroids that are used in cancer treatment are hydrocortisone, dexamethasone, methylprednisolone and prednisolone. Dexamethasone is also used in low doses as an anti-sickness drug. In this case it is usually given only for short periods of time and the side effects described in this section will not usually occur."

Steroids (Anabolic-Androgenic), National Institute on Drug Abuse:"Anabolic-androgenic steroids are man-made substances related to male sex hormones. “Anabolic” refers to muscle-building, and “androgenic” refers to increased masculine characteristics. “Steroids” refers to the class of drugs. These drugs are available legally only by prescription, to treat conditions that occur when the body produces abnormally low amounts of testosterone, such as delayed puberty and some types of impotence. They are also prescribed to treat body wasting in patients with AIDS and other diseases that result in loss of lean muscle mass. Abuse of anabolic steroids, however, can lead to serious health problems, some irreversible.

Medical Indications for Steroid Use:

IV Steroids In Acute Severe Asthma:"The current British Thoracic Society guidelines [1] on the management of acute asthma recommend the use of oral prednisolone or "intravenous hydrocortisone if severely ill or vomiting". It is common practice to administer 100-200 mg of intravenous hydrocortisone in accident and emergency departments to any asthmatic likely to need admission."

Steroids In The Treatment Of Lupus:"Many of the symptoms of lupus result from inflammation in various tissues of the body. Cortisone, manufactured naturally by the body's adrenal glands and also made synthetically, has been found to have a marked anti-inflammatory effect. Cortisone and its derivatives are steroids, the most effective anti-inflammatory drugs known. Their use can substantially reduce the swelling, warmth, tenderness and pain that is associated with inflammation."
