they actually have a forum for health and medications where you might find your answer.

Yes, they're legal and easy to get. I'm not sure about over the counter, but I believe the answer is yes. Try the forum at steroid.com.

Hmmmm not sure what your sport is, but in my world putting that stuff into your body earns you at minimum a 2 yr ban plus pretty much big time loss of respect down the road. I train with the distance runners on the Russian National Team and our coach is very against doping and, no, we don't shoot up before working out. However, in the powerlifting, bodybuilding, and boxing world here sterioid use is rampant.

It not possible to know what you mean by "steroids." Asthma medicine is a steroid. Other classes of meds are steroids unrelated to performance-enhancing hormones. You'd have to be more specific.

In general, most common meds are non-prescription.
