Wafers with anabolic steroids

The OMCL of AGES PharmMed recently tested wafers from illegal production that were fortified with anabolic steroids. The wafers were produced in Waldviertel and sold 30,000 times worldwide.

According to OMCL analyses, they contained the two anabolic steroids methandienone or stanozolol, as well as traces of clenbuterol, yohimbine as well as stanozolol in some cases. The wafers were named "Pink Wafer," "Dark Pink Wafer," and "Purple Wafer." The illegal drugs have already been confiscated by the criminal police.

Damage to health caused by anabolic steroids ranges from liver damage to cardiovascular problems and even death.
