Human Growth Hormone (HGH) has been initially developed for clinical needs. This medication is prescribed to cure children with growth disorders and adults that experience deficiency of growth hormone and associated health problems. But this drug is often abused. Numerous weightlifters and other athletes use this medication for athletic purposes. Under laws of several countries, including the USA, purchase and administration of this medicine for non-medical purposes are considered to be illegal.
Although this preparation is illicit without any prescription, it is not a problem to buy it. This medicine is widely available online. Moreover, street dealers sell this medicine. Since the price is not increased, many sportspersons have possibility to buy it.
Those who take HGH illegally abuse also other medications. They are not limited just by illicit administration of this product. Which preparations are also used by consumers of HGH?
Several scientists decided to conduct a research connected with illicit intake of HGH. They enrolled 230 weightlifters aged 18-40 into the study. The experts could define that the most of these weightlifters used not only HGH but also anabolic-androgenic steroids and insulin-like growth factor-1. Furthermore, many of them administered recreational drugs, such as cocaine, ecstasy, etc.
Which risks are faced by those who apply high dosages of HGH prolonged period of time? Unfortunately, negative effects resulted from increased doses of this product are not studied sufficiently because doctors usually don’t prescribe enhanced dosages.  Increased quantities are commonly applied by those who apply this medicine for performance-enhancing effects. But it is known that application of enhanced measures during long period of time may cause serious negative consequences. This medication may negatively influence on various systems, including endocrine, respiratory, cardiovascular, etc. It is necessary to be very careful because high measures of HGH are associated even with cancer.
