Affective and psychotic symptoms associated with anabolic steroid use
HG Pope Jr and DL Katz
Epidemiology Laboratory, Mailman Research Center, McLean Hospital, Belmont, MA 02178.
To assess the frequency of affective and psychotic symptoms in athletes
taking anabolic steroids, the authors performed structured interviews of 41
body-builders and football players who had used steroids. According to
DSM-III-R, nine subjects (22%) displayed a full affective syndrome, and
five (12%) displayed psychotic symptoms in association with steroid use.
These findings suggest that major psychiatric symptoms may be a common
adverse effect of these drugs.
